{{quote|'''Buffy:''' Actually, I do have a date. Older man. Very handsome. Likes it when I call him 'Daddy'.
'''Angel:''' (looking relieved) Huh. Your father. [beat] It is your father, right? }}
** Buffy coldy tells Giles, "I don't know you," Cordy takes her literally and believes some demon has given her amnesia, as well as wondering from their serious expressions if the world's supposed to end again and whether or not she should bother studying for an exam if that's the case.
* [[Continuity Nod]]: To the flashback in "Becoming, Part One" when Angel first saw Buffy.
* [[Disappeared Dad]]: This episode [[Characterisation Marches On|marks a change]] from Buffy's father simply being estranged from Joyce, to one who refuses to turn up even when Buffy needs him {{spoiler|such as during Joyce's funeral.}}
Line 78:
* [[Screaming Woman]]: Buffy being chased by Kralik on the way home. Needless to say no-one stops to help in Sunnydale.
* [[Spot of Tea]]: Quentin drinks tea from a china cup while calmly discussing Buffy's impending peril.
* [[Tear Jerker]]: Giles injecting Buffy with the chemical that stripped her of her powers, planting a seed of distrust that wouldn't blossom until "[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer/Recap/S7 /E17 Lies My Parents Told Me|Lies My Parents Told Me]]".
* [[Too Kinky to Torture]]: Buffy tries to ward off Kralik with a cross. Kralik presses it to his body and enjoys the pain, [[Getting Crap Past the Radar|telling her to move it lower]].
* [[Transhuman Treachery]]: This is the first time we see a turning on screen with one of the Watcher's employee's, Blair, becoming a vampire and instantly siding with Kralik upon awakening.
* [[Unresolved Sexual Tension]]: Lampshaded with Buffy and Angel's training fight.
