[QUOTE="Tarrasque Wrangler, post: 867675, member: 7473"] [b]Re: Long, rambling thoughts on this episode.[/b] I agree with you on how cool Faith has become, but a better slayer than Buffy? The Mayor dangled a little paternal attention in front of her, and she abdicated her responsibility to the entire world. She murdered anyone who got in her way. Maybe she did come around to the side of the angels again. But who was saving the world while she was getting in touch with herself in jail? The REAL Slayer, that's who. Can you blame Buffy for "breaking down" a bit? She's being put through the wringer, and she feels like the friends and allies that she has groomed for years to aid her are coming up short. She's always been the soldier, and now she's forced to be the commander ordering her friends to their deaths. It has been hammered home time and again on this show that her greatest strength is her love for and reliance on her friends, something no Slayer was ever allowed to have before. Remember how unenthused the Council was about the involvement of her friends? Heck, remember how uncomfortable Giles was with the whole thing to begin with? She's shown them all time after time that her way gets the job done better. And if it looks like it's not working now, then join me in a hearty "Let's all wait and see how this plays out." I'll give you better than even money it won't be Faith who does in the First in the end. And Buffy not having the "stuff" to lead in combat? May I kindly refer you to the episodes Graduation Day and The Gift. Boo-ya. [/QUOTE]
