Blood Ties: Buffy's birthday, so you just know something it going to spoil the celebration. In this case, it's Dawn finally learning that she's the Key.

Buffy finally tells the others about Dawn. And even admits she should have told them sooner.

I'm sure this new attitude will carry over to the next time she has a big secret. :-)

On the whole Buffy handles this episode's situation reasonably well (although Joyce has a point when she tells Buffy that Dawn needs her sister not the Slayer).

Willow: Mostly a supporting role, although there are more signs of increasing power.

And we learn that there is a direct physical connection between Ben and Glory, although they do not have access to each other's memories. There's also a hint that something prevents other humans from realizing the connection.

The Knights of Byzantium show up again. As usual, they don't do anything particularly effective against Glory.

Spike still trying to be helpful. Even has a good point about Dawn's reaction not being his fault.

Dawn: Basically learns she's adopted. Times two. Squared. Understandably freaks out a bit at the news. She was clever in how she played for time with Glory.

And we close on Buffy and Dawn bonding.


Happy Anniversary: We learn that Angel is a beige. Or something like that.

Fun verbal interplay between the Host and Angel, with the Host nudging him in the direction of his friends.

And the rest of the gang starts getting their business off the ground. With the help of Wesley's girlfriend Virginia. Like Wesley's little detective routine.

And apparently Wesley has a major role in some future events...
