That just doesn't seem like much... flavor I guess... to me that is.And, Angelus slew families to drive people crazy, he had energy! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Also, a friend pointed out, Caleb is the perfect villain to end the series with. The show has something of a misogynist tone to it at times. Xander is by no means a strong male character, Giles was the fatherly type and the closest they had going. (Angel was cursed, Spike has gone all wussy since getting souled, an tried to rape her before that. Oz was a decent one, but werewolfed, and even attacked Tara and went off with a female werewolf...)I just expected different Caleb-ness I suppose, but I didn't feel like there was enough to the scene to make him a worthy villain. Tossing the stabbed girl out of the truck just didn't seem, um, Evil enough for me I guess.The whole "tell her I have something of hers" thing was just silly to me. I'm happy that the Buffette's finally DID something, but they knew it was a trap the whole way, discussed it being a trap, and there plan was "we walk in, if we scream come fight"?ah well.</blockquote>
