Line 2:
{{quote|''It's about power. Who's got it. Who knows how to use it.''}}
Sunnydale High is reopened. Buffy discovers the place is infested by zombie spirits. She also finds a crazed Spike living in the basement.
* [[Aesop Amnesia]]: Buffy is still letting her guard down around Spike (she turns her back on him several times even though he's clearly [[Not Himself]]) and lying to her friends about him.
Line 9:
* [[Bad Liar]]: Buffy (as usual), but averted with Dawn who thinks up the 'bee in my eye" explanation for her [[Eye Scream]] on the spur of the moment. I guess that delinquent behaviour last year had a useful purpose after all.
* [[Big Bad]]: The First.
* [[Brick Joke]]: Principal Wood [[Hot Mom|mistakes Buffy for Dawn's mother]], causing Buffy to check to see if she's got "Mum hair". After his life is saved, Carlos calls her "[[Action Mum|the coolest mom ever]]", causing Buffy to check her hair again.
* [[Buffy-Speak]]: Willow says that the Earth is "not all good and pure and rootsy." Xander sees the hole in the toilet floor and says, "Woah! Contracty goodness."
* [[The Can Kicked Him]]: The school toilet has zombie ghosts and floors that give way beneath you.
* [[Can You Hear Me Now?]]: Dawn's cell phone.
{{quote|'''Dawn:''' Isn't this reception amazing? I'm in the freakin' basement!}}
* [[Cat Scare|Carlos Scare]]: Buffy startled by Carlos throwing the basketball. Dawn and Kit running into Carlos.
Line 23:
'''Buffy:''' What? Duck? There's a duck? (zombie hits her over the head with a pipe) }}
* [[Continuity Cavalcade]]: The First torments Spike while shifting into the [[Big Bad|Big Bads]] of the previous seasons (choosing Warren for the sixth and Drusilla for the second) in reverse order.
* [[Continuity Nod]]: Buffy missed the heart [[Buffy the Vampire Slayer/Recap/S2
* [[Creepy Basement]]
* [[Daydream Surprise]] / [[Eye Scream]]: The boy next to Dawn asks to borrow a pencil. Suddenly he's a zombie jabbing the pencil into her eye.
Line 29:
{{quote|"I planned to get killed, come back as a vampire, and bite you."}}
* [[Description Cut]]: From Giles saying "In the end, we all are who we are, no matter how much we may appear to have changed" to Xander back in Sunnydale in a suit and tie, getting out of an expensive car.
* [[Designated Parents]]: Xander as the bread-winning Dad, Buffy with her Mom hair, and Dawn as the kid. Unfortunately Xander is still recovering from the Anya disaster, so the [[Ship Tease]] implications of this haven't occurred to him.
* [[Easily Forgiven]]: After murdering Warren and Rack, trying to kill her friends, and attempting to bring about [[The End of the World as We Know It]], Giles has taken Willow to the [[Sublime Rhyme|coven in Devon]].
{{quote|When you brought me here, I thought it was to [[Kill Him Already|kill me]] or to [[Tailor-Made Prison|lock me in some mystical dungeon]] [[Sealed Evil in a Can|for all eternity]] or...[[Fate Worse Than Death|with the torture]]. Instead, you [[Person as Verb|go all]] [[Harry Potter|Dumbledore]] [[Person as Verb|on me]].}}
Line 74:
** Later when Buffy keeps fussing...
{{quote|'''Dawn:''' I know! -- 'You never know what's coming'. 'The stake is not the power'. ''[[To Serve Man]]'' [[The Twilight Zone|is a cookbook]].}}
** Buffy warns Dawn to be on the lookout for [[Buffy the Vampire Slayer/Recap/S1
* [[Scenery Porn]]: The green fields of Westbury, England. Plus there's Giles on a horse!
* [[Self
* [[Shape Shifter]]: Unlike the [[Final Boss Preview]] in "Amends" where the First only took the form of Jenny Calender, this one morphs freely while [[Circling and Monologuing]].
* [[Smash Cut]]: From the Potential being killed to Buffy saying, "It's about power."
