Buffy the Vampire Slayer/Headscratchers/Season 3: Difference between revisions

** Hm. In "Band Candy" and "Gingerbread," the adults of Sunnydale have been magically driven insane. Given that Faith is both mentally unstable and older than the rest of the cast, maybe she was part of the problem rather than the solution. Faith on band candy is a terrifying concept. In "Lover's Walk", as I recall there really wasn't a point where it would have made sense to try to contact her.

** Um, it isn't canon that Faith is older than the others. In fact, most fans get the impression that she's younger. It definitely would have been nice had they explained Faith's absences a little more. Just a line would have been nice.

*** It's implied it affects everyone, it's just that most teenagers don't notice it because they're, well, teenagers.

*** Faith's story in general is filled with holes that neatly allow you to read her along a whole spectrum of gray. She does bad things ''and'' people, including the heroes, do bad things to her. A throwaway line hinting that the writers had some clue of where she was during these bits might have been nice, but unanswered questions work well for allowing people to be sympathetic to her on rewatching...
