Mothman's Buffy Rewatch: Season 2, Episode 16, "Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered"

Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered

Is this the first time Harmony appeared or I am stupid

Amy is back and up to her old tricks, I can't wait until she gets ratified

"Have a sentence, even." It's these little quips that make me love this show all the more

Oof the tension between Jenny and Giles is no longer romantic

Angel trying to win over Drusilla is funny because I like seeing Spike pissed off (I like him but I like hating him as well)

Cordelia breaking up with Xander right after the necklace was rough damn girl

Amy: that is so mean :(

When I read the episode description I was going to hate on Xander for forcing Cordelia to date him through a love spell because that's... gross and awful but then I watched the episode and it's slightly less awful so uh good for Xander for not being that much of a creep ig. Even though it's still kind of creepy

Cordelia's hair looks really nice in this episode

I find really hard to care about Bangel because of how gross it is for an immoral being to be dating a teenager. I'm sorry Buffy I want to sympathize with her in this plotline and i do feel bad for her, but not in the way the narrative wants me too.

"Will lap dancing be a part of that" EW EW EW GROSS XANDER STFU

This is why I don't like him

WHY DID WILLOW BITE HIS EAR WHAT THATS SO RANDOM

God that whole scene in the bedroom was awful

was making the adult women also attracted to xander really necessary

How did they let buffy into the school wearing that?

LMAO BUFFY TURNED INTO A RAT INCREDIBLE FORESHADOWING

Oz shaking his hand after punching Xander is incredibly funny

Aw no Buffy rat escaped :(

WILLOW WITH THE AXE IM CRYING

The cat yowling in this episode scared my actual cat lmao

Shit Joyce is here she's going to be into him too gross

"Boyfriend. Former!"

Joyce breaking the window genuinely freaked me out

The captions are sending me (Buffy squeaking)

NO DRUSILLA IS INTO HIM TOO WHY

Cordelia just tossing Willow aside sjejdnksej

Joyce is genuinely the most unsettling person in this episode

Joyce is the next main villain of a slasher film wtf

The menacing shots of the rat trap are sending me

Oz is so incredibly chill all the time but I feel really bad for Buffy after she transforms back from a rat 😭😭

Buffy praising Xander for the bare minimum :/

CORDELIA STANDING UP AFAINST HER FRIENDS good for her

Only one episode tonight guys 👍 mom had a meeting so we started later than usual

KENNEDY: And this is gonna help us how? DAWN: The sand forms a circle. The circle acts as a barrier. And the barrier contains the portal. KENNEDY: Now what? We hold hands and chant kumbaya or something? WILLOW: Maybe. 'Til we get the magicks up and running, I'm kinda working on my best guess here. XANDER: Will, maybe we should wait. KENNEDY: For what? XANDER: Spike - to see if he can bring back that demon. WILLOW: No, I don't think we should wait right now. Opening a portal this size could take days. KENNEDY: Better get started. WILLOW: I think I might pee my pants. KENNEDY: You can do it - the magicks, not the pants thing.

Mothman: Who are you most comfortable around?

@tinawiththeglasses, @vintagesaph, @timelady92 and @mightysqare and a few other friends and one of my cousins, cause they’ve all known me for more than a year and I love them and I know, they’d never judge me XD

Skunk-ape: What TV shows are you watching right now?

I started watching Cardinal, cause it kinda has the same feel as my Frankenstein Adaptation that I’m doing for Uni (which I’ve dubiously named “Victor” now XD) aaaand I’m rewatching Buffy, catching up on Once Upon A Time and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and am waiting for episode 20 of Hawaii Five 0 (I fear, it’s almost the last episode of the season and I’m scared that we won’t get another season, because I honestly can’t live without this show anymore. I’ve spent a month binge watching it and it’s a part of my life now XD) AND I need to catch up on Black Sails, but I’m scared XD

thanks for asking, Cassie!! ❤❤❤

Notes from my rewatch so far ("Welcome to the Hellmouth" and "The Harvest")

Welcome to the Hellmouth

Buffy is already a girlboss and I love the plotline of her like. Just wanting to be normal. Also I haven't watched the movie but I love that she burned down the gym, iconic

Xander is actually sweet, making sure to help Willow and Jesse before escaping and being so determined to save Jesse

Cordelia saying "What is your childhood trauma?!" Is still iconic

Angel is much more annoying and much less sadboy than I remember

Luke makes me viscerally uncomfortable

I love the jumpscare noises especially when it played for Xander

I love that they fought in a crypt like the fight scene could have been better but like the concept 👍

The Harvest

Rip Jesse he will never be mentioned again despite being super close with Willow and Xander

"There's something you forgot about. Sunrise"

"It's in about five hours, moron" queen shit, absolute girlboss that was fucking hilarious

[mothmans-wedding-photographer]

Mothman's Buffy Rewatch, Season 3, episode 3, "Faith, Hope, and Trick"

Faith, Hope, and Trick

She also didn't slay

IS THIS THE FAITH EPISODE

"I think what my daughter's trying to say is 'nyah nyah nyah nyah nyah'" LMAO RARE JOYCE W

Normalize bullying British people /j

"Who's more sensitive than me?" WILLOW NO

Giles is such a hater can't a girl have hobbies

AHH Buffy is so pretty in this party scene

Who tf is Scott

He's probably gonna die by the end of the episode

FAITH??????

Why is the guy she's dancing with so goofy

Ok I feel bad for Scott he got his hopes up

I like Faith's shirt

Omg it's the first time she calls Buffy 'B'

I love how earnest Faith is when trying to connect with Buffy :(( in her own way

EVERY TIME THEY PLAY THAT FUCKING ANGEL I BURST OUT LAUGHING

Aw Giles got excluded :(

Xander stop being horny for two seconds

Faith's a fry-stealer this is the worst thing she's done ever

"I have tried to march in the slayer pride parade" they are really hammering in the metaphor huh (I'm here for it)

F does not roll off the tongue like B

Faith struggling to get up in the background is sending me

"My dead mother hits harder than that" girl what

Faith has a lot of issues

He lived for kissing toast ❗️❗️🗣🗣

"My bestest new little sister comes to town" is this foreshadowing. Is this a Dawn Summers reference

NOO HE GAVE HER THE SAME RING

Oh shit Faith knows Kakistoes

Oop Buffy knows

Aw I'm sorry Faith I feel so bad for her and her Watcher "they don't have a word for what he did to her" what the fuck

Yeah I'd be screaming in fear too I actually like seeing this vulnerable side of Faith, I didn't remember from my first rewatch

THE GUY IN THE KEYHOLE SCARRD ME WJST THE FUCK

Aw Buffy is being reassuring

Poor Faith :( Eliza acts fear and panic so well it really gets me

Well dang. That is, in fact, a bigger stake

Buffy is finally sharing her trauma yippee!!

"I told him that I loved him, then I kissed him, and then I killed him" ouch

Damn Scott survived good for him !! (He will likely die later or be forgotten by the show writers)

Is the ring gonna bring Angel back

Ew naked Angel

[mothmans-wedding-photographer]

Mothman's Buffy Rewatch, Season 2, episode 22, Becoming (Part 2)

Becoming (Part 2)

Wow so many 2s in this episode

Willow's in a coma :( poor girl

Aw Cordelia asked about Willow :)

The way Angelus was choosing the best position for Giles to wake up too lmao

I feel bad for Joyce when the police came like she's not the best mom but it's still rough

Spike jumpscare

BUFFY AND SPIKE FIRST TEAM UP HELL YEAH

Spike's so real in this scene tbh

"Cause your girlfriend's a big ho?" Buffy is not being a girl's girl tsk tsk

Seeing Buffy punch him is so cathartic

Rare sweet Xander moment I love this scene... too bad she asks for Oz

Is that blood or lighting on Giles' face

Spike as the singer makes so much sense I'm ngl its just his vibes. Same with Buffy drummer

Why does Oz's mouth kind of make him look slightly wolfish

"Have we met?"

"Uh. You hit me with an axe one time." LMAO?

"Mom, I'm a vampire slayer." I thought she told Joyce much later lmao

"Dru bagged a slayer? Good for her!" He's such a supportive bf fr

"I mean have you tried not being a slayer?" Yes, Joyce, she has and it didn't work

"It's because you didn't have a strong father figure" Joyce what

BOO JOYCE BOOOOOO

Giles looked so smug when he told Angelus to wear a tutu I'm crying

"Sit n spin" can we cancel Angelus for being ableist /j

"In case you haven't noticed, the police of Sunnydale are deeply stupid" rare Synder W that was funny

Snyder gets no bitches confirmed

EW HES KISSING DRU

WHY ISNT SHE STOPPING

Who tf is the Whistler

"Calvary's here. Calvary's a scared guy with a rock but he's here"

GET HIM SPIKE

"Then why would they make you see me?" Lmao

Buffy with the sword... hot

WILLOWS POSSESSED FACE IS SO FUNNY IM SORRY

Willow kicks off her witch arc with this I presume

"No weapons, no friends, no hope." No bitches?

"Me." SHE SAID THE LINE AND DID THE SWIRD THING YIPPEE

BONK LMAO

Angel's back (not for long)

"Shh. Don't worry about it" fucking kills him

THE STAB DBDJEBDIEJ

YAY SARAH MCLAUGHLIN I LOVE HER

I Feel so fucking bad for Buffy after Joyve told her not to come back...it hurts so much i can't imagine your mom rejecting you like that

I feel bad for her friends too... they have no idea where she went

Anyways fuck Joyce

[mothmans-wedding-photographer]

Mothman's Buffy Rewatch: Season 2, Episodes 5, 6, and 7 "Reptile Boy", "Halloween" and "Lie to Me"

Reptile Boy

Ok I actually watched this episode last week and forgot to write a post about it lol my bad

Anyway Buffy and Cordelia get drugged! Horrifying!

Damn Giles let Buffy have fun she's fucking 17 and facing death every day

Kind of love Cordelia and Buffy sort of starting a friendship

Is the snake like. A metaphor for dick. Like the club is dangerous because you'll get drugged and then men will take advantage of you with the "snake"?

Especially since its university age men trying to date high schoolers like freaks

And then there's the guy who told buffy not to talk to the snake because she's a woman and then gets the shit beat out of him get fucked shitidiot

I wish he died horribly <3 misogyny is punishable by death if you're a fictional character in my book tbh

Damn they've really been sacrificing women for centuries, i originally thought this was a newer group due to the lack of old people

Halloween

Xander is such a loser lol at least tell Buffy thank you for saving you from getting the lights beat out of him

Cordelia and Angel interactions are so funny to me 😭😭

Honestly I really feel Willow when she feels uncomfortable in revealing clothing. I want to be, but it's hard

Yo Oz and Willow first conversation

Noooo the poor old lady 😭 at least she's fine

Princess Buffy is so silly but kind of annoying and Army Xander is better than real Xander if I'm being honest

I think princess buffy should've had a moment where she accidentally hurt someone or broke something and was surprised and confused because she's just a weak woman (in her words) and she doesn't know she's the slayer

Honestly seeing Buffy like this makes me insanely uncomfortable and I don't know why? I'm just not used to it ig

ETHAN THE GUY GILES HAS BEEF WITH I FORGOT ABOUT HIM

GILES JUST FUCKING PUNCHES HIM I LOVE IT

"Hi honey, I'm home :)" iconic but it also made me think of the song "Honey I'm Home"

Beat his ass Buffy! I love to hate Spike

Oz already being infatuated with Willow is so cute

Tbh I think this was a really cool episode concept in general

Lie to Me

Damn this kid knows stranger danger. Almost wasn't enough to save him though rare Angel W

I kind of love Drusilla she's so

Every time Cordelia opens her mouth in class I become violent

Oh Buffy long lost friend? He's gonna be evil for sure

FORD F-150

Xander and Angel both being threatened by a man who knows Buffy, get a life

Lmfao the lonely ones

"Ours is a forbidden love." Lmfao

Spike possessive moment. I do appreciate when he realizes he's hurt drusilla he apologizes, good boyfriend I guess

Ah man fuck Ford <3 I hope he dies

"I don't deserve to die" yes you do <3

Ain't no way he's calling Buffy out because she didn't know he has a terminal illness when he's about to commit MASS MURDER 😭

Buffy don't apologize he sucks

God everything about this man pisses me off more than the average Buffy villain of the week

I love how much Spike actually cares about Dru

"Uh. Where's the doorknob" his tone was so funny to me

Lol get fucked Ford

NOOO HE DOESNT DESERVE FLOWERS

WAIT THEY ACTUALLY TURNED FORD LMFAO

Ok I understand hes afraid and he has a horrible illness and it's complicated and whatever it's just Everything about him pisses me off so much and I refuse to feel sympathy. Idk it's interesting what horrible circumstances leads people to due though, I think this episode has a lot to think about I'm just a hater

"Lie to me." "Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guy are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everyone loves happily ever after." I'm fucking sobbing this line gets me so hard

[mothmans-wedding-photographer]

Mothman's Buffy Rewatch: Season 2, episodes 17 and 19, "Passion" and "I Only Have Eyes for You"

DISCLAIMER: My parents didn't want to watch "Killed by Death" so I guess I'll have to watch it later myself, but out of order. Sorry guys

Passion

"You've managed to boil a complex thought into the simplest possible form."

Is this the episode where Jenny dies because she's suspiciously getting close to getting Angel's soul back

Willow wondering if she can send students to detention and make them run laps... she's already going mad with power incredible foreshadowing

"Since Angel lost his soul, he's regained his sense of whimsy"

"Don't invite him in" bestie he's already allowed in

Noooo her fishes :((

Lol get fucked Angelus

Yep Jenny's dead 😭

Lmao he smushed his face against the glass and then got hit by a cart. Incredibly funny to watch, not as much when you explain it. That is the essence of all of my posts

"He's older than you. And also clearly not very stable." Rare Joyce W

Ewewew Angelus is so gross he set up that whole sex thing I hate this

Willow's crying is so visceral it got me

Xander bragging about how he always hated Angel oh my god shut uuuuuuppp I did too but at least I can acknowledge they're essentially different people

AND GILES COMES IN WITH THE STEEL CHAIR !!!

Lmfao this brings me so much joy he's just hitting him over and over again like yes Giles get his ass

"You can't leave me. I can't do this alone." Damn ok that hurts knowing later

Willow got her wish...

I Only Have Eyes For You

Tbh i would also probably wait a while to date if my ex became an evil monster and killed my teacher

Jeez that escalated quickly what the fuck bro

"You just went OJ on your girlfriend" WHAT

"Pathetic little low-life vegan"

SHE DID THE JOKE THING 🗣🗣❗️❗️

Aww she gave him the crystal

Ew why is the teacher talking to that boy like that

Ah shit is that teacher student stuff gross

Sksjdjrs Xander gets locker-slammed by a magic arm

Giles interest when he thinks Xander said loch ness monster. He's literally me. Do you guys think Giles would talk about mothman with me

Giles after being near both recent school teacher murders:

Snake in da lunch room 🐍

"We're on a Hellmouth" does he know???? I don't remember this but sure

Drusilla is just like me fr I would also like to dig a little Burrow to sleep in

Drusilla's got the MOVES

I want Spike to kick Angelus's ass so badly

"It's snake-a-licious in here" Xander has regained some of my good will with this line

Willow gets sucked into the ground by magic quicksand

The Buffy crew gets swarm of locust'd

Ok listen Buffy I agree with you that you shouldn't have to forgive someone killing their lover in a fit of blind rage but he was a grooming victim so I don't feel that bad for the teacher tbh

I have a feeling that Buffy is going to be James in this situation

I WAS PROVEN RIGHT

Damn I wished Angel stayed dead

Why did they make this a teacher student relationship they didn't have too

The curse of watching old shows through a modern lens makes this hit emotionally a lot less

HE CAN WALK he's gonna beat Angelus's ass hell yeah

[mothmans-wedding-photographer]

Mothman's Buffy Rewatch: Season 2, Episodes 12 and 13 "Bad Eggs" and "Surprise"

Bad Eggs

The girl exited so quickly after Buffy said he was cheating sjskej

The fucking cowboy vampire I'm crying its so funny

The way he scrambles away lmfao

XANDER WHY WOULD YOU RAISE YOUR HAND man he was so enthusiastic about it too 😭

The look on Buffy's face when said she was a single mother oh my gosh

I had to take care of an egg in junior high but I didn't get a partner :( we were all single parents

So much kissing in this episode already

The Texan accent guys are so silly they just ramble on I love them

Eggbert is an icon

Wait no he's hatching ew wtf nvm

ITS CRAWLING INTO HER EARS WHAT THE FUCK

Xander fucking hardboiled it that's so iconic

RIP Mr Whitmore (maybe I should have done a death counter but oh well)

My dad said that there's been so much kissing it feels like a Mexican soap opera

Poor night security guy :( omg FNAF reference

Oh god it fucking hatched why is it like that ew. It's like the facehugger

Damn Willow is already possessed I think (this got confirmed like a minute later)

"It's an egg Buffy, it doesn't emote"

Cordelia???

Lmfao bonk

Damn I actually didn't think Giles was possessed that surprised me

EW THE MOTHER EW EW EW NO

THE SMACKING NOISES AS BUFFY KILLS IT AND EVERYONE JUST WATCHES BLANKLY

Unironically I think they should've redeemed the Texan vampires

Joyce?? You wanted your daughter to stay in the library with a gas leak and you're punishing her for not doing it???

Surprise

Drusilla jumpscare

The monkey with Willow in Buffy's dream sequence is amazing

BUFFY BIRTHDAY

Something very creepy about Buffy talking about her school to Angel

Aww Oz and Willow are so cute. It's hard to enjoy them because Willow later comes out as a lesbian, so I don't know entirely how to feel about it :(

I love their dialog though they're so silly and sweet

Drusilla getting angry at the flowers not being right is so OCD (I have OCD, like actually diagnosed. The distress it causes her is relatable)

Nice freshadowing Jenny's death and Angelus return

God I love Cordelia. "Surprise!"

Oz seeing the vampire for the first time and just going this explains a lot is so much funnier if you don't know he's a werewolf

Jenny is NOT giving them a moment

The scene at the docks would be so touching if Angel wasn't a predator

Drusilla hosts iconic parties

Is this the guy that Buffy kills with machine gun because that is iconic but I'm not sure it's him

Ew they had sex

[mothmans-wedding-photographer]

Mothman's Buffy Rewatch: Season 2, Episodes 8 and 9 "The Dark Age" and "What's My Line? (Part 1)"

The Dark Age

Oooo Giles backstory episode

Imagine dying because someone was playing exercise music too loud to hear you lmfao

Rebellious giles got a tattoo damn

Ethan returns. I think he's a good reoccurring villian

Jenny :(

I watched this episode last week so I lowkey forgot a lot of it

What's My Line? (Part 1)

KENDRA INTRODUCTION EPISODE

Drusilla and Spike slay as always

Oz and Willow meet!!! Hell yeah. Also government agents and stuff

I don't overly care about the vampire group subplot but whatever

I actually remember Willy?? I think he was involved with the kitten poker?? I'm not sure

I liked seeing Buffy have fun on the ice :) it was nice seeing her do something he enjoyed

"Don't warn the tadpoles!"

I love the Buffy and Kendra fight scene

I was kind of distracted watching this episode so I don't have a whole lot to say unfortunately

[mothmans-wedding-photographer]

Mothman's Buffy Rewatch, Season 3, Episodes 1 and 2, "Anne" and "Dead Man's Party"

Anne

Willow's so hot in the start i love her outfit and hair

Oz fucking fails like a bitch

Buffy at da beach

Faith in the intro??

Creepy old men Buffy should beat them up

She looks so fucking angry at that couple I'm crying

Oz is doing a victory lap lmao

I like all of the camera stuff this scene is doing

Aw Giles is so determined to find her

Whoa who's this girl OH SHES THE VAMPIRE CULT GIRL

Oh everyone is saying "I'm no one"

Omg Ken "I'm just Ken"

Lowkey I got distracted for several minutes my bad

Ken is evil Damm

Ew whys it so goopy

Oh the goop just leads to a room alright then

His face glue reminded me of Mac and cheese

When I saw the giant containers I thought of the vat the Joker fell into

Poor Aaron

She's so girlboss I love her

I do really like the weapon she has in this episode

ITS THE SHOT THAT PARTS OF THE INTRO!!!

LMAO SHE JUST PUSHED HIM I FORGOT HER NAME BUT I LOVE HER

oof ouch right through his legs

"Gandhi?" "You know, if he was really pissed off"

The subtitles: tinkly piano

"Can I be Anne?" I dont know why but this got me

I hate when the episodes make me feel bad for Joyce I always have to remind myself how shitty she is

Dead Man's Party

"I just want things to go back to normal between us" maybe you shouldn't have fucking kicked her out Joyce

"Primitive art" Oh that's not

Willow's "Hi Buffy!" In the middle of the fight is so funny and sweet

Aw Buffy when she sees her friends know how to kill vampires

"You're not wanted for murder any more" well good I mean that was easy 😭 they set up that plot point and then did nothing with it I'm crying

Uuugghhhh I hate Snyder what do you mean you feel tingly

(I hate when I hate characters who are written to be hateable it's like I fell for the writer's trap)

THIS WOMEN HAS BARELY SAID ANY LINES AND I HATE HER "I was taking care of Joyce while you were away" in that guilt trippy way like Joyce was the one who told her to leave you asshole

Awww poor cat :(

"Goodbye stray cat who lost its way, I hope you find it" I know she's talking to buffy but that's sweet

IS THE CAT A ZOMBIE

LMAO JOYCE INSULTING SNYDER

"You've made some bad decisions, now you need to face consequences" (paraphrased) what was the bad decision? Being a slayer? That's not decision?????

"Welcome to the Hellmouth petting zoo"

Aww Oz bonding with the Zombie cat

Poor buffy, she just wants to catch up with her friends

LMAO THE DRUMMER LOOKS SO OLD

Ew his head is so sticky

FUCKING HELL JOYCE HAVING YOUR DAUGHTER BACK IS WORSE??????

So many zombie guys

Willow walking in on Buffy leaving hurts so bad

They both have a point in this scene I love it, it's a good scene

The audacity of Joyce to talk about how it's worse with Buffy here and then getting mad at her for leaving

Oh, SHE put YOU through the ringer????

Xander defending Joyce... oh fuck off

THANK YOU CORDELIA. GOD

Oz is being referee guy 👍👍

*stabs him* no, not vampires

Lol does the moms annoying friend die

Zombies actually freak me tf out more than like pretty much any other Halloween monsters

"Cordelia do stop being tiresome"

Pat turns into the devil herself and Buffy stabs her through the fucking eyes

GET HIM GILES

I WASNT EXPECTING HIM TO THREATEN HIM PHYSICALLY BUT YAY

"Freak"

[mothmans-wedding-photographer]

Mothman's Buffy Rewatch: Season 2, Episodes 2 and 3, "Some Assembly Required" and "School Hard"

Some Assembly Required

Interesting take on Frankenstein. In the original novel, the monster wants a bride but Victor refuses, but in Buffy the two kids who brought him back to life are actually making him a bride, though the monster's brother chickens out from actually killing.

Awww Giles and Jenny are sweet :)

There's something so horrifying about not even being safe in death.

Buffy should really be able to beat up Darryl easily. He's a rotting, living corpse and she's the fucking slayer

Xander running Cordelia through the fire was funny to me I don't know why

Fuck Eric they should've let that bastard to die

Horrifying that Darryl decided to die with the unfinished corpse he had made out of his selfishness. He should've died alone

School Hard

SPIKE AND DRUSILLA INTRODUCTION

I'm actually seeing them at a convention soon :)

I love Dru

Sheila gets on my nerves idk why

Buffy hates French as much as I do I love her even more

Joyce and Snyder interactions are funny

Tbh Spike is actually a great boyfriend to Dru 😭 he takes her to the hellmouth to heal her and encourages her to eat

I can't take Spike seriously like oh he killed two slayers okay edgy boy

Why did Joyce just listen to buffy and let her go confront the "gang"?? My parents would not let me do that

Joyce girlbossed when she hit Spike with the axe omg Joyce parenting well

Bro just fucking killed the Anointed One 💀 it was so funny

Mothman's Buffy Rewatch: Season 1 episodes 6 and 7 "The Pack" and "Angel"

The Pack

This episode is so funny I'm sorry

Like the acting is so awkward but I can't even blame them because how the fuck are you supposed to non-cringily act like a hyena

Anyway not to change the subject to mythical creatures but was this perhaps based on legends of the crocotta? Specifically when the hyenas creepily call people's names in an attempt to lure them out; classic crocotta behavior. Also there's so many hyena myths it could have been based on, like the bouda, bultungin, or kishi

Poor pig :(

Also poor principal but like I didnt really care

How did they not have blood all over them after eating the pig and principal???

Angel

Whoooaaa Angel's a vampire who could've guessed

"Last time I saw you it wasn't teenage girls" extremely rare Darla W

WHY ARE THEY KISSING BUFFY IS FUCKING 16. NOT EVEN LEGAL. WHAT THE FUCK ANGEL

Why the fuck didn't Angel just. Explain that Darla shoved Joyce into his arms. Like.

I actually enjoy The Master's interactions with the Anointed One it's so funny how he's just like a dad. Who kills people

Buffy with the crossbow hell yeah

Mothman's Buffy Rewatch, Season 2, Episode 14, "Innocence"

We are SO BACK

Innocence

Angel becomes evil after feeling the touch of a woman

Man, she was just trying to be nice :( RIP smoking lady

"I can see the stars" "no, love, that's the ceiling"

Angelus is abelist??? /j

"You'd rather be with someone you hate then with me" ouch that hurt

Damn Angelus is an asshole (who would've guessed)

Also a creep like who calls someone "kiddo" after sleeping with them ew

Willow look out! Oh no, she has airpods in she can't hear us

Well at least Buffy knows it's not the actual Angel insulting her. Silver lining!

Aw man Buffy's crying :( poor girl

Giles realizing teenagers have sex

The soldier scene sjhebeksjene

XANDER HAS ACCESS CODES?? NO BAD IDEA BAD IDEA

I like how Oz isn't just trying to get with Willow as soon as possible, he's thoughtful and kind and patient

THE BAZOOKA HELL YEAH ONE OF THE BEST SCENES EVER

That shot of Buffy after blowing up the judge is so iconic

Lmao Cordelia

Get his ass Buffy!!

"Uhhh... arm!" Oz I love you

SHE KICKED HIM IN THE BALLS IM CRYING

I wrote a bunch of stuff for this episode but tumblr deleted it that's so fun let's see what I remember

The haunted statue callback I'm cackling

Cordelia and Xander doing the Man Hand Hook Hand Car Door

BUFFY GET HIS ASS SHE SLAMMED HIM TO THE GROUND

I didn't realize what Cain was saying at first and then I realized he's a disgusting creep

Wait I didn't realize Oz wasn't a werewolf until now I thought he was like born one

"Is Jordy a werewolf? Uh huh. And how long has that been going on?"

Cain has like no redeemable qualities lmfao they said no nuance for you

Xander after accidentally outing Larry to him

Larry's character arc is truly astounding: sexually assaults and harrasses women- come out as gay- dies horrible

Lmao she smacked him with the trashcan

Power move, Buffy bent his gun get fucked Cain I hope it was expensive

Larry just helped a woman out damn that was a super quick turn

Xander it is NOT up to you

"Three days out of the month, I'm not much fun to be around either"

Aw they finally kissed
