[QUOTE]Originally posted by Sol System: [QB] "Becoming, Part 2" It's the police! Arriving because...uh...there was an altercation at the high school? Which isn't all that different from the last time vampires invaded the school. During which no police were to be seen. And does Snyder (and by extension the Mayor, I suppose) know that Buffy is the slayer? Buffy is incognito. You can tell because she is wearing a hat. Xander has no witticism. This is perhaps the most serious indicator of trouble that the show has. It works well. Spike is saving the day! Sort of. I had an idea while watching. When the police come to interview Xander he should say "We were attacking by group of scary people, and not a single teenaged girl." That might help. Well, maybe not with the assaulting an officer charge. I really like the scene with Spike and Joyce sitting in the living room. And then Buffy gives an impassioned speech to her mother. Cordelia and Oz are sent to the library to get some things. But, uh, the attack was just a little while ago. Shouldn't there be detectives and such roaming around the area doing detective work? I guess not. "Inform the mayor!" Well, he doesn't quite say that, but more or less. Again, they obviously know something is up with Buffy. But, it doesn't help the Mayor any if the world gets sucked into hell, does it? Shouldn't he be encouraging her to save the day here? (Or, crazy thought: Is this all an attempt to put Buffy into a situation where she has nowhere to turn, and then the Mayor offers her a job?) Xander could get into a lot of trouble by not telling Buffy about Willow's plan, here. Hasn't he learned anything? I mean, ok, so he is jealous, and maybe he really does think that Angel is irretrievably evil. Still. I don't think anyone will be very happy with him, were they to find out. OK, at first I really enjoyed Spike's "He's going to kill her." *shrug* bit. But, wait a minute. Didn't he do all this to stop Angel from destroying the world? Sure, there was revenge, and getting Drusilla back. But they gave him that nice speech about not wanting everything to get sucked into hell, and then, when it looks like everything [i]is[/i] going to get sucked into hell, he just bails? I realize that the whole ending wouldn't work if Spike rushed in and joined the fight, but, maybe he could have thrown something at Angel, you know. Distracted him a little, at least. Anyway, re: ending: Sad. [/QB][/QUOTE]
