I say on almost every reaction - one of SMG's best acting moments, showing true mastery over who her character *is*, is how she manages to non-verbally portray her "dropping the act" of the Buffybot and revealing herself to Spike. She barely changes expression, but it happens like magic right in camera. It's incredible.
Personally I always look at that kiss like it like a... a token, something leftover from stories of the age of chivalry, a favor given to a noble knight if you will.
This is such a great episode for SMG. When you rewatch it, you can tell how her Buffy-acting-as-the-Buffybot is different from her Buffybot. Underrated actress.
Well said!
the scene works so well because SMG and James play so well off each other and really have an understanding of their characters. But yes, I agree SMG is an amazing talent.
The episode that Spike can be his creepiest, and also his most heroic.
This definitely isn't the episode he is creepiest.
17:46 "Buffy knows that Spike loves her"
She does now, yes. But only now. She didn't believe that soulless vampires are capable of love before Spike proved it in this episode.
On rewatch I now realize Anya's obsession with money originates in Real Me: Xander inadvertently gave her her prime motivation in life when they are explaining the objective of the board game Life, "If you have the most money at the end you win"
Whoa…..😮
lol I love that scene with BuffyBot and Anya, I just love how delighted Anya is that Buffy asked her how her money is doing. its so good 😂 all in all, this is a really good episode, not only for the importance of the story moving forward, but also a welcomed comedic breather after the last 2 really sad episodes.
Spike has the heart of a poet and we know he follows his heart. He was with Drusilla for 100 long years for her love. Loving Buffy has made him loyal to her. He cares too much to betray her. He's still obsessed with her and has a twisted sense of love. Plus under it all he wants to do evil.
I love that he hurts glory just by insults alone who needs strength
I love how Spike is extremely weak but gets up immediately to fight more until he sees them
luv this ep.
Only the Buffyverse would take something as silly as the Buffybot and use it to show us something new in the relationship between Buffy and Spike.
"What you did for me... and Dawn. That was real. I won't forget it."
We've never seen Buffy talk to Spike anything like that before.
Spike always had that extremely stubborn streak for going against the grain, and doing things his way. Somewhere along the line, 'his way' became not betraying Buffy. I always found his performance interesting in the episode where he's ratting out Riley for his Vampire hookups. He clearly did it to improve his own situation with Buffy, and to get rid of Riley. There are these moments though when he seems legitimately pissed that Riley would do that to Buffy. Things are often far more complicated than just a selfish, or an altruistic impulse.
And definitely also moments when he feels guilty about indirectly causing Buffy pain for what he knows deep down are selfish reasons but also isn't really capable of seeing his selfishness as a bad thing so is confused. His outburst against the mannequin in that ep (Triangle I think?) is alarming, but it's also intriguing that he's having that conflict of emotions in the first place.
@@partycitydumpster I've always gotten a kick out of how in many ways, he ended up being the far more complex, and compelling character than Angel ever was.
A literary device this show uses a lot is "mirroring," in which to convey deeper characterization, some characters act as mirrors to other characters. The most obvious & deliberate in the series are Faith & the Mayor are mirrors of Buffy & Giles. In the same way Giles, Willow & Xander are mirrors of different aspects of Buffy. Riley and Spike were mirrors of each other while Riley was part of the show: They both have the deep psychological need to be loved, more than in a way that's healthy. The show has a very clinical Existentialist morality to it, and in existentialism the idea that you need to be needed by another person to give your own life meaning is morally wrong. And in this way, Spike is still acting self-interested, its just that pursuit of love is his highest motivation.
@@carlogiurizzato2441 Spike being an "important person" doesn't mean he's somehow exempt from the rules of being a vampire. It's more like Buffy's early comment in Lie to Me is wrong: "A vampire is a demon who sets up shop in your body, and it looks like you & talks like you but its not you." I like how the show treats these ephemeral parts of life as not having clear answers; that makes it feel very realistic. I've rewatched the whole series several times & from what I can tell its more like "the soul" is quite literally a person's conscience, and that's necessary to be a real person: The chip in Spike's head provides the same thing that the soul does. I do wish the show had focused more on the philosophical implications of why "a chip" is a less legitimate way of doing what "a soul" does, simply because one is technology & the latter is magical.
I give a pass to the scooby gang not recognizing Buffybot because we NEEDED a light and fun episode after The Body. And we needed this kind of suspension of disbelief for the comedy to work here.
There were other ways the comedy could've worked. They could have assumed Buffy was under a spell. I like how Xander immediately says "they're both Buffy" once Buffy and the Buffybot are in the same room together, because it calls back to his previous experience. The writing is sort of alright for Xander, because (1) he is not that bright and (2) he actually noticed Buffy never asked about Dawn. But the writing for Willow is disappointing. She cast a spell that made Buffy fall in love with Spike, for crying out loud, and can't tell "Buffy" is not acting like herself. The fact that Buffy puts two and two together in three seconds while her best friends act like sitcom characters is very telling.
Don't get me wrong, I like this episode, it's a good one despite these issues. But it's those things that keep it from being a Buffy classic.
@@antoniolamounier The only reason it bothers me at all is because of the gag in 5x15 where *all* of them immediately call out Warren's girlfriend bot as what she is. That precedent makes the miss far less plausible.
On the other hand, to be fair, none of them have much *time* to really process the Buffybot. Xander and Anya have the vampire fight and, as you pointed out, Xander still does pick up on something being a bit wrong. And then they're all just so thrown by Xander's eyewitness testimony of Buffy and Spike going at it, coupled with the idea that people are not themselves in time of grief, that it's not outside the realm of plausibility for them to miss it for so short a time.
(On the other other hand, how the heck long a time was it? It's night in the scene with Willow on the balcony, but it's daytime when Buffy comes home!)
So Spike has never been a normal vampire, "The Whirlwind" - Angel, Dru, Darla and Spike were all sired through the Master's sireline and they're actually part of a different sireline than normal vampires which makes them stronger, smarter and more emotional. You see this with Angelus because he is capable of using empathy to understand how to destroy someone completely something that ordinary vampires can't really do. You don't find this out the show but you do find it out in the comic. According to Joss/writers, Vampires don't have a soul which means their natural inclination is towards evil but they can still learn to do good for selfish reasons. Their version of love is obsession or possession so Spike sees Buffy as like this ultimate prize he can win by learning to be a good person
Someone commented that spike telling Buffy he would glory kill him first made them hate his character forever because that's not possible without a soul. You said it perfectly
I can't tell if I like this or not
Theres more to it than that: For example, the Judge in season 2 says Dru & Spike have more humanity than Angelus. The Master thing is interesting but as far as we can assume, almost all the vampires in Sunnydale came from the Master's sire line: or maybe not, as Sandy seemed pretty docile suckin on Riley, and she was made by vampire Willow, who was made by the master
@@carlogiurizzato2441 no you are wrong Joss explain well why in interviews online and wikipedia and buffypedia go read and you can see it in angel season 5 i cant go in details here because of spoilers for sophie but spike is unique and different than any others vampires he never changed hes personality,they didn't understend a thing then there is a very dam reason why can do what it does in angel season 5 they are not true fans or just dumb
I never understood how Buffypedia latched onto "the whirlwind" as being the name of the group. When Darla and Angel use that phrase in the episode "Darla", they are just describing the chaos and extremeness of their time together. They weren't referring to that being the group's name.
I feel like Sarah would have had a heap of fun playing Buffybot after all the hard scenes she'd had to do as Buffy during the season.
Hats off for SMG who is playing Buffy, the Buffybot and Buffy pretending to be the Buffybot. I love 'Intervention' which is downrated imo, but I guess that's because S5 has too many amazing episodes. After what happened, we needed some comedy. But this episode is also important for the season arc. We learn that Buffy's gift is death (??), we have some good fights, Glory is getting closer to find her key....and then Spike! I know he can be a creep most of the times, but he has a big heart (which is not beating!). That final scene is touching since Buffy sees William for the very first time.
the perfect way to create the intimate moment between Spike and Buffy; real, and not under the influence of another magic.
this is my favorite episode. the redemption arc of spike really starts to be seen. and for buffy, to see spike with his soul laid bare, with no ego to hide his true feelings, lets her truly know he loves her, more than anything he could have done.
Mine too. Thanks Jane for writing this masterpiece.
How many robots did we have in Buffy until now ?
- Moluch the Corruptor made himself a robotic body in S1.
- Then we had Ted the creepy stepfather.
- Adam the big vilain of S4 was part robot.
- But it's Warren that gives us 2 of them : an ideal girlfriend and lastly the Buffybot.
I know most people today don't remember Bob Barker as the host of The Price is Right, but for those of us who are old as dirt the image of Spike tricking Glory's minions into bring her his "limp and beaten body" is highly amusing in its preposterousness. Always wondered what Bob's reaction to this was.
Also very amusing:
Spike: "The Slayer is going to kick your skanky, lopsided ass"
Glory: *looks over her shoulder to check her ass*
But if you remember Bob Barker in "Happy Gilmore", he might have given Glory a run for her money.
@@lawrencewestby9229 The price is WRONG, bitch!😂👊
Like Drusilla told, they can love but not wisely.
And Spike would risk his unlife for Drusilla before and now Buffy. Because he is in love and he is a sucker for love.
Still,this level of devotion shouldn't be possible without a soul. I'm sorry,but he's behaving like a human being at this point. A particularly reckless one,but I see *NO DIFFERENCE* between him and any individual with a soul!This is *THE* moment Spike becomes a walking PLOT HOLE for me!🤬💢
@@Nicamon humans with souls do horrid shit all the time. Souls don’t make you good or bad. His capacity for human emotion as a vampire was proven when he turned his mother into one bc he wanted to save her life. It’s been proven that someone’s personality before becoming a vampire can and does influence the vampire, it’s just about how much control they decide to have upon their actions. Being a demon makes it more difficult for them to behave with “good” actions, but that doesn’t mean they are incapable. Look at Harmony.
Spike was literally shaped by Angelus. The most sadistic vampire we have knowledge of in the entire Buffyverse. Not all vampires have that level of behavior or sadism, or it wouldn’t be important to know the fact of just how horrid Angelus is. That should be enough for you to see that not all vampires are remotely the same and are far more complex than just being demons. It’s not a plot hole that the facts of what we know about vampires in the series is inconsistent and not fully known. It makes no sense to assume they all behave the same.
He would have died for Drusilla just the same before he caught feelings for Buffy. If he can do it for Dru why can’t he do it for someone else? Your lack of comprehending these things doesn’t make them a plot hole.
@@daniig62 yes yes and yes say it louder 👏🙏
@@daniig62 "Humans with souls do horrid shit all the time."Exactly. My point is people WITH soul should be able to be Good OR Evil. People WITHOUT soul should only able to be Evil.Otherwise,what makes a Slayer any different than a regular killer?
"Souls don’t make you good or bad."True. But the *lack* of soul SHOULD make you bad.See previous point.☝
"It’s been proven that someone’s personality before becoming a vampire can and does influence the vampire"Which is why VampWill and VampXander were *suuuch* good vampires!🙄🙄
"Being a demon makes it more difficult for them to behave with “good” actions, but that doesn’t mean they are incapable."So,once again,why should Slayers be allowed to exterminate them without a trial or without putting them in prison instead or something?
"Look at Harmony."I tend to overlook Harmony because she's a secondary character(I've spent decades without knowing"Angel"was a thing so I'm only counting"Buffy"in this argument),but Spike is not. I can't overlook such a big thing on HIM.
SPOILER FROM SEASON 7!!!
"Not all vampires have that level of behavior or sadism, or it wouldn’t be important to know the fact of just how horrid Angelus is. That should be enough for you to see that not all vampires are remotely the same and are far more complex than just being demons."OK,then explain me this:why did Buffy stake that vamp dude from"Conversation with Dead People"?He was a nice guy,he was even _helping her!_ Yes,he tried to bite her a couple of times,but so what?She could try to "befriend"him like she did with Spike or Harmony.Why did she just stake him instead,even if he had TECHNICALLY done nothing harmful yet?
"He would have died for Drusilla just the same before he caught feelings for Buffy."Yeah,but,you see,the tricky thing is that dying for Buffy *also* means dying"for the greater Good"in this case.Spike was NOT protecting BUFFY:he was protecting DAWN _AND_ the world from Glory FOR Buffy. Buffy was not in a direct danger AND _when BOTH the world AND she were_ at the end of S2 he just went away DESPITE having declared that *he didn't want* the world to end because he enjoyed living in it! So why the change of heart?Why is it that NOW it's important for him to protect Dawn AND Buffy AND the world all at the same time?Why did he help Tara to discover her family's lies?WHY DOES HE CARE THIS MUCH???Where is the LINE between caring"because I'm in love with Buffy"and caring"because I'M AN ACTUAL DECENT PERSON"??? I don't care about his *motive!* Spike *is behaving like a decent human being!* Nothing more,nothing less. And if HE can do that without a soul,I must suppose ANY VAMPIRE can do it without a soul *AND SO* the role of the Slayer ceases to make sense! *THIS* is the problem I have with Spike and his character development. IF this led to put the role of Slayers *IN SERIOUS DISCUSSION* I would be on board with it. But it never does. Spike and Harmony are simply treated as EXCEPTIONS without giving any explanation or justification on how that is possible without a soul!There is *absolutely no difference* between Souless Spike and Souled Spike,just like there is no difference between Souled Harmony and Souless Harmony!
@@Nicamon why the change of HEART? Can you read? That’s the entire point…the change of his HEART. He didn’t love Buffy in s2, you dunce. He loved Drusilla.
Let’s stop pretending like there aren’t MULTIPLE demons in the buffyverse that are completely non violent. Your “the slayers reason for existing would cease” is beyond ridiculous, it’s literally impossible that every demon would be benevolent, just like it’s impossible that they are ALL evil. It is explicitly proven in the series that the person before can influence the vampire, that’s fact, whether you like it or not. Willow and Xander DECIDED to embrace evil, more so by being surrounded by it and being close to the Master. Expecting all demons to be the same is like expecting all humans to be the same.
He does these things regarding Buffy out of his “love” as warped as it is, and that includes saving and being nice to her friends bc he thinks it will impress her. Idk why this is so difficult to understand lol
"This is so weird!". Hey, weird love is better than no love!
The whole premise of this episode only works because Joyce died recently, people tend to kind of out there things when someone they love dies. People shave their heads they don't get out of bed for days, they drink when they noemally don't.
Spike has the best character arc in the show. I will die on this hill.
I actually think it makes more sense for the Scoobies to not see that this Buffy was a robot. Sure, they can spot it in a stranger. But they've known Buffy for years, gone through so many things together and have great love for one another. We're naturally inclined to give "weird" things the people we love do a bit more of a pass than those that strangers do. And to look for explanations to rationalize the things our loved ones do, explanations that keep our loved ones "good" in your eyes. Which in this case is that Buffy is grieving so badly for her mother that she is distracting herself by boinking Spike.
To be honest... as creepy as it is, it was allways one of my favorite things to see SMG as Buffybot. Its so much fun!
I just love every episode of season 5 ❤️

buffy: i won't forget it.
also buffy: _proceeds to forget it_
the ending of this episode is amazing
I have heard every possible negative take on this episode, and yet none of them can stop it from being one of my favorites. 😂 Its hilarious and yet also very important in so many ways. I quote it more than any other I think. Maybe I'm just broken.
No, not broken, you are perceptive with a great sense of humor.
Spike is much better, than Angel. He is capable of love and compassion, even without his soul.
But due to not having a soul, he makes many terrible decisions and goes the wrong way about trying to show his love many times
@dylanburton4955 but he's trying. That's worth a lot.
Not even close. Spike with a soul sure but soulless spike loves selfishly and is a freakin rapist. The writers didn't even want fans to like spike. This robot situation is disgusting. Once spike gets a soul he realizes how selfish and horrible he was.
Spike is not the anomaly vampire that feels. All vampires are capable of love but they have no morality and always lean towards the bad. Angelus is the anomaly and unique with how heinous his actions when soulless. Most vampires are not dual personalities, they just lack morality. Like spike.
Spike and Tara are the 2 most genuinely good people on this show - soul or no soul. What proof is there that vampires do not have souls? Just because the watchers council decrees it does not make it so. Spike tries very hard to be evil because he believes that he should be - he has done terrible things under the influence of Angel and Drusilla, but the fact that he tolerates the insults and violence from Buffy, Giles and Xander and continues to help them despite being treated as a subhuman shows that he has a kind heart - he has nothing to gain and could just leave town or kill them as most vampires would have done - chip or no chip - he had plenty of opportunity to kill them by proxy, for example with Harmony and her minions, or he could have programmed the Buffybot to kill them
The way Spike notices when it's Buffy unlike her friends. Tsk tsk, even a vampire with no soul knows her better, huh. 😅
Glory's minions thought Spike was the key because the Buffy-bot was programmed to love Spike so much that it solely focused on protecting Spike while slaying. You may have been talking over the dialogue and missed it, but earlier as well, Glory told her minions that the key would be someone who's probably new to the Slayer and who the Slayer would protect with her life. And when the minions witnessed the Buffy bot constantly focus on protecting Spike and calling his name lovingly during slaying some vampires, the minions automatically jumped to the wrong conclusion that Spike was the key, since Buffy's (the BUFFY bot) attention was solely focussed on protecting Spike.
Very good reaction to an interesting episode. Tells you something about Spike and where he is right now.
The Buffybot in Intervention lends for some great comedy moments, but the serious side is Spike's obsession with Buffy reaching crazy and dangerous levels. Interesting that Spike did not tell Glory who the Key was, even though he is soulless he seems to be changing, his feelings seem genuine, of course because of the chip he cannot attack humans, but nevertheless things seems very different. The kiss from Buffy is a pivotal moment in the show.
We got another one, boys B) spuffy nation rise
you misspelled bike
You know what? You made me get a different perspective on the scoobies with this video. I'm more of a biased Buffy stan who favorites her & there are moments where the scoobies annoy me because I feel like they were weird towards her or unfair with her but this episode & them not knowing faith was in Buffy's body never phased me.. until now that you pointed out at the end that spike, out of all people, knew that was the REAL Buffy, HE was the one that stopped and backed away after realizing that it wasn't the bot. Comparing how quickly he caught on vs the scoobies + riley is very telling...
That’s what spike does. He has an uncanny ability to see the truth about people, his observations about people usually are correct. Obviously not just appearance wise.
@@daniig62 Plus the innate connection he and Buffy have, that the writers always try to show
Love love this episode.
The "First Slayer" is just the form of the guide spirit, it is not the real "First Slayer".
Spike used to be William. And though he no longer has William's soul, he does have William's memories.
William was far from a perfect guy. He had next to zero self confidence, and less talent as a poet than... well, probably anybody. But William did care about people. He was in love with Cecily, and he wanted her to love him back, even though she treated him poorly, telling him his poetry was terrible, and that he was "beneath her." William walked away. Yes, he was miserable, and sullen. But he didn't try to argue with Cecily, or to "make" her love him back (likely something a lot of aristocratic dudes in Victorian times did).
I think William had a pretty decent sense of empathy, and though that actual emotion may not have carried over when Dru turned William into a vampire, the memory of those feelings remained. I think Spike knew losing Dawn would hurt Buffy, because he'd seen her hurt countless times before. He knew how deeply she cared about her family and her friends (something that other Slayers he'd encountered maybe didn't have in common with Buffy), but also because he remembers what it was like to care about someone else's feelings because a hundred years before, he actually did.
(Yes, I know there were some other things to suggest William was an empathetic guy, but that could or could not be spoilery, so I've left it out of this comment. Thanks. 🤐)
@@carlogiurizzato2441 Hey buddy, no shade, but just gonna point out that mentioning any info about seasons of Buffy or Angel that Sofie hasn't reacted to yet, is a spoiler. No big deal, though. I think she's got mods, so she probably won't read this.
That said, I appreciate your criticism. I think you made some good and valid points. Thanks, and take care.
I like to think Spike never programmed Robot Buffy with knowledge of the key, but that she leaned about it from overhearing other people's conversations. If Spike truly cared about Buffy, he wouldn't have put that sensitive information in the robot's memory at the start.
Especially as he would have had to give the information to Warren first in order for it to be programmed into the Buffybot.
There are no dialogue in this episode even hinting that BuffyBot knows what or who the key is.
When does the Buffybot reference the Key or Dawn at all?
@@spikesecho724 Spike initially assumes Buffy at the end scene is the robot and a discussion about the key takes place. Although not technically the robot, Buffy tests Spike who probably doesn't remember exactly what the Buffybot does or doesn't know after he got beat up.
Buffy: OK, can you fight like I do?
Buffy Robot: Yes. Can you cross your ankles behind your neck like I do?
Buffy: "gags".
Yes, Miss Sofie. Buffy has changed so much since Season One, and the weight on her shoulders is so much heavier now... Almost as if she's carrying _The Weight of the World..._
After experiencing trauma like losing a parent it's not that uncommon to act different. So maybe that's why they didn't realize it's a robot. But yes, it's a bit weird. It's not the first time it happens. I'm guessing it's written like this for comedic effect.
Xander about Spike: "It's understandable. He's strong and mysterious." Sksksksk Xander, sweetie, your crush on Spike is showing. And your bisexuality. 😆
5:43 Tara disagrees with Willow! I finally feel she's a scooby in her own right, not just an extension of Willow, with no personality of her own.
11:48 'but I'm beginning to think you might be.' I love that line, It's fantastic!
14:07
In that last scene I was immediately 85% certain that real Buffy was playing dress up as. Buffy-Bot
I think in a couple of the episodes (especially this one) where the gang didn't recognize Buffy wasn't Buffy it wasnt really a flaw of the gang, it was more that the plot and gags just worked out better that way.
I saw this come up on my feed and had to remember this episode. Oh yeah! Lots of comedy and those moments you want to swoon over.
I promise this all makes more sense farther into the episode, and even past season 5
It's so nice seeing you happy.
i started watching buffy because of you
She kissed him to thank him. she pretended to be the robot to get an answer
love your color coordination today!
The didn't get the chance to pick Buffy apart from Faith! She avoided contact or conversation for the most part and before they could sus her out Tara knew from her magic vibes
Great reaction and great analysis as usual. Seems you liked last scene a lot :) I was wondering if you'd notice it was Buffy's playin Buffy Bot to find out if Spike had told Glory about the Key. Lookin forward for rest of season
I love this episode. I do come down on the side of Spike having Buffy’s back because he wants Buffy, which is rooted in selfishness but mimics and appears like selflessness (something that a lot of romances on TV do), but it’s still deeply satisfying here.
The reason Spike is acting as if he has a soul even though he doesn't is because Drusilla was the one who turned him into a vampire. When a human being does something evil, they are called insane. When a vampire does something good, they are called insane by other vampires. Drusilla was insane. Her insanity infects all the vampires that she created. Spike has some of that insanity, so, despite not having a soul, he is capable of doing some things that demons would consider insane. That's why he does good things now, even in the absence of a soul.
We'd have to see whether Drusilla sired any other vampires to see whether that checks out, or it's just looking for another excuse as to why Spike is different. Unfortunately, the only other example I can think of also has good reasons for being different, so not much help there.
Spike had to have Warren program Buffybot with a specific dislike of Angel. Her core programming is to be like Buffy and Buffy fell for Angel. Spike can't have that happening to Buffybot should they ever meet.
Thanks for raising the question if Buffy takes on The Guide's advice of "Love. Give. Forgive" in the final scene, very interesting.
Can death be a gift? As my dad died a week ago, and I will definitely say that death can be a gift. (PS I'm handling things really well, in part because I have watched The Body lots.)
And from this moment the ship has sailed
I’m curious if anyone has programmed a Buffy chat bot with the responses from the show
Great episode!!!
I'm so excited to see your reactions to the next few episodes, season finalies are special, especially after how disappointing the season 4 one was. I loved your deconstruction of the Guide's message
Imo Restless is a masterpiece and I'll hear no slander about it! 😋 I always found Adam very underwhelming, though..
Buffy would never eh?
Having seen half of Season Six, Miss Sofie is rethinking the certainty with which she made that comment.
This is why Spike will always be better than Angel & the one deserving of her love.
I hope that back in the year 2000 that the audience wasn't as stupid as the Scooby Gang was in this episode. But, it was a tv show. LOL. But it was a good show. Nice Post. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Omg yes I love this one
YES BUFFY KISSED HIM!!!!
No,no,no he has no selflessness or compassion. He was being tortured, yes. I don’t know if you remember but spike has conflated torture with love and attraction on multiple Occasions. Come on, please see this for what it is.
Love makes you do the wacky.
Personally, I didn't find robot Buffy to be cringy, or sad. I found her to be quite plucky, (leave it to Beaver meets Brady"especially Jan with the kind of hair bounce" bunch) and hilarious.
Spike wasn’t being sweet or protecting dawn ir Buffy. He was being selfish. He was being obstinate. If he had told glory she would have killed him 100%, no question. I find it strange that no one noticed that by doing exactly what he did he got free. That’s how he Final scene is just one example of the writers flushing the lore down the toilet for the novel goal of fan service.
Can you react to any of Josh Turner's songs ?
The weight of the world
Yeah, I might not realize she's a robot, I would assume she's under some kind of spell!
editing goof?
I’m sorry about that. Something went wrong 😑
Deja vu
Why do you think this cliché-resistant show would suddenly do a “romance” cliché? 🙄
Is Xander bisexual? - I think he is
