I mean, let's say you did kill us. Or didn't. There could be torture. Whatever. But somehow you found the goods. What would your cut be?

So did anyone else find that very weirdly paced? It seemed really slow even though a fair bit happened. And some of the shots were weird.

Also, why is dunking Spike's head in water torture. He doesn't breathe, right? Unless it was holy water, then his head would have been burned off. It didn't make any sense.

Thanks for all the fish.

Uh, yeah. I mean, you can leave a vampire underwater for an entire summer and nothing much happens; I hardly think that dunking him would be much of a torture. And what's with Spike coughing and choaking and spitting up water? Hello? Doesn't need to breathe?

Also, SMG kept saying 'okay' in that fucking annoying way of hers.

But I liked Anya and Xander.

And I think that Giles is dead.

And what's up with Principal Wood? That smile when he talked about digging underneath (from beneath you....) to uncover the mystery? And I want Dawn and the new proto-Slayers to DIE DIE DIE.

I think he knows something. But does he know who Buffy is?

ITA!

That's what I was thinking too!

Thanks for all the fish.

Honestly, it quite spoiled the rest for me.

Hey, did Dru ever call Spike 'Daddy'? Because I know she called Angel/us Daddy... I don't recall her ever referring to Spike that way. Quite took me out of the moment.

I can't remember either, Elena.

Thanks for all the fish.

I think that I'll ask in fic.

I found this via Mr Pointy, from Halloween:

Spike: Really? Did my pet have a vision?
Drusilla: Do you know what I miss? Leeches.
Spike: Come on, talk to Daddy. This thing that makes the Slayer weak? When is it?

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

So did anyone else find that very weirdly paced?

Very much so. I think it was all my fault. I think the mediocrity of this ep was TPTB getting even for my downloading the wildfeed. Karmic balance and all that.

Spike "drowning" was just weird. And what was with the goody-two-shoes proto-slayer running off? It felt like they cut out a scene or something.

Jon, Welcome to Atlantic Canada!

It felt like they cut out a scene or something.

Yeah, that didn't make any sense at all.

And there was a shot of Giles between Buffy and the sunrise that looked really weird. In a bad video kind of way.

I can't put my finger on what was wrong with this ep. Was it the writing or the directing? So many things that should have been HSQ were just eh. Like first seeing Giles, discovering there were other slayers, or Buffy's speech at the end.

Was this Marti's ep?
