Subject: Some Notes
In reply to: Kuzibah 's message, "Rewatching Buffy: Checkpoint" on 12:11:45 06/23/09 Tue

Checkpoint: A visit from the Watcher's Council. Quentin is always fun to watch. Note how he rides his attitude all the way to ALMOST getting Buffy back under the Council's authority.

The pressure on Buffy just keeps building in this episode. Travers. The Professor. Glory. The Knights. Ironically, all this piling on ultimately helps Buffy figure out what's really happening with the Council.

Like the little interview scenes. Willow/Tara always cute. Anya's elaborate fake biographical details. Xander being Xander.

Then there's Spike. Still trying to impress Buffy. Flattered by his bit of fame. And then being genuinely helpful.

(Note also more Spike-Joyce bonding.)

Dawn continues to be suspicious that secrets are being kept from her.

(And, of course, not just from her although she doesn't know this.)

And there are more indications that there's a connection between Ben and Glory. And a reminder that Glory has some sort of time limit.

And then there's Giles. Intimidated by Travers. Quietly fuming. And his expression near the end when Buffy calls Travers' bluff.

And we close on Quentin telling Buffy that Glory is a god.


Blood Money: More beige Angel. And we see Anne again and see the progress she's made. And we learn what the Senior Partners have planned for Angel--they want him on THEIR side.

Meanwhile, Cordy, Gunn, and Wesley are continuing to keep the agency going. They're even looking for new office space.
