Holy...great ending to the episode!

I have to admit...I was a bit underwhelmed by the show so far. But now that the BB has made its move...

I'm not sure if I can wait until January!

Two thumbs up for this episode.

That's what I thought too until I was the one who got to see it before others.

The power is intoxicating.

Alright Spoil it for me. I don't get to see it PERIOD. (No freaking UPN station here.) So far all I know is the First Evil has been impersonating dead or close to dead people. What did it do now?

 

[Crothian]

At least it's good. I hate to wait for something and have it turn out to suck. 20 hours and counting till I get too see it.

Bah!

It won't air locally for 116 hours. One HUNDRED and SIXTEEN hours. That's nearly four full days after you. Four days of desperately avoiding this forum, sjgames.chatter.tv, the SpoilerSlayer email list, and who knows what else, trying to resist the temptation to just find out what happened!

Argh!

SPOILERS AHEAD!







Just a rough outline of the plot as I don't have much time:

Buffy is intent on redeeming Spike, but the First Evil isn't finished with him yet. Andrew runs into Willow and gets captured by the Gang. The First Evil (FE) uses Spike to try kill Andrew before he gives away any information, but fails. So it tries a new tactic. It sends his flunkies to the Summer home and captures Spike. It uses Spike's blood to finish opening the seal (apparently Jonathen didn't have enough blood...too small). The seal opens and some big vampire emerges (the credits call him the UberVampire).

We don't see anything about Giles, but we do get to see the Watcher's Council. They are trying to find Giles and are concerned about the loss of their "operatives". During the episode, the council is ransacked by the FE's minions. This stirs the Council to action and they plan to bring in all their remaining operatives and visit the Hellmouth.

And then the FE blows up their building.

There are other details I know I am forgetting, but that is the gist of the episode.

ONE MORE SPOILER TO ADD...









The Principal walks into the basement and finds Jonathen's body on the seal. The walks in as if he knows what's down there. He takes the body and disposes of it near some oil wells.

Is he good or with the bad? Can't tell by his actions but he definitely is involved.

Perhaps Mister Wood IS the first evil!

But sounds like a great espidose, especially the blowing up stuff.

Personally, I was dissapointed. After the dark and epic year's end episode of Angel, I found this episode of Buffy to be really campy and fromage. The acting was weak, the special effetcs were weak, and the whole things just felt.. well, I dunno.. weak. That whole scene with the Watchers at the end had all the energy of a hand blender.
