Line 4:
Spike's Buffy-bot is complete. The real Buffy and Giles go on a spirit quest.
 
* [[Adopt the Dog]]: Spike's [[Defiant to Thethe End|willingness to face torture and death]] to protect Dawn.
* [[A Form You Are Comfortable With]]
{{quote| '''First Slayer:''' This is a form. I am the guide.}}
Line 18:
'''Xander:''' No, but if I have to see her straddle Spike again, I will definitely knock myself unconscious. }}
* [[Breather Episode]]
* [[Call Back]]: "Intervention" is a reference to "[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV)/Recap/S3 E7 Revelations|Revelations]]", where the Scoobies discovered that Angel was [[Not Quite Dead]] and [[He Is Not My Boyfriend|apparently involved]] with Buffy again -- she used the line, "What is this, Demons Anonymous? I don't need an intervention here."
** Xander's "Hey I know this; you're both Buffy" is a reference to "[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV)/Recap/S5 E3 The Replacement|The Replacement]]" when two Xander's were created.
** "I know this place." Buffy goes to where she met the First Slayer in her dream in "Restless".
* [[Chekhov's Gunman]]: The Buffybot will prove useful to the Scoobies in "The Gift" and "Bargaining".
Line 72:
* [[Most Definitely Not a Villain]]
* [[My Name Is Not Durwood]]: Giles gripes that Spike didn't program the Buffybot to say his name correctly. Then Buffy makes the same mispronunciation.
* [[Nothing Is the Same Anymore]]: After this episode Buffy's attitude to Spike changes from loathing and subconscious [[Foe Yay]] to treating him as a [[Fire Forged Friend]]. Spike responds in kind, substituting his [[Stalker Withwith a Crush]] behaviour to one of [[Courtly Love|service without any expectation of reward]].
* [[Parrot Expowhat]]: Buffy's famous reaction to the idea she was having sex with Spike.
* [[Sequel Episode]]: To "[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV)/Recap/S5 E15 I Was Made to Love You|I Was Made To Love You]]".
* [[Sex Bot]] / [[Robot Me]]: The Buffy-bot.
* [[Smooch of Victory]]: Buffy gives Spike a [[Ship Tease|lingering kiss on the lips]] as a reward for his loyalty.
