Buffy the Vampire Slayer/Recap/S7/E02 Beneath You: Difference between revisions

* [[Brick Joke]]: Wood doesn't eat at the Doublemeat Palace because he's a vegetarian -- the [[Secret Ingredient]] of their burgers is soy meat. He also warns Buffy not to befriend the students as they'll "eat you alive."

{{quote| '''Buffy:''' You heard about Principal Flutie, right?}}

* [[Call Back]]: After Buffy [[Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV)/Recap/S1 E7 Angel|finds out Angel is a vampire with a soul]], they kiss and we see Buffy's cross necklace searing his chest. Here after Buffy realizes Spike has a soul, he drapes his body on a large cross as it burns him. Likewise Angel tells her in that episode, [[Meaningful Echo|"I wanted to kill you" and Spike uses the words "I dreamt of killing you"]].

** Spike's [[Game Face]] and [[Evil Gloating]] in the Bronze harks back to when he was an unambiguous villain in Season 2.

* [[Tear Jerker]]: The final scene in the church between Buffy and Spike (generally regarded as a [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]] for actor [[James Marsters]]).

* [[Tender Tears]]: Buffy weeps at the sight of Spike burning himself on the cross.

* [[Together Umbrella]]: In a platonic love version, Giles walks Willow to the taxi (so she can catch the plane back to the US) under his umbrella.

* [[Vampire Invitation]]: Buffy hasn't revoked Spike's yet. While this has [[Ship Tease]] implications, a simple explanation is that Willow and Tara are no longer around to do so.

{{quote| '''Buffy:''' Spike, have you completely lost your mind?<br />

'''Spike:''' Well, yes. Where've you been all night? }}

* [[Worm Sign]]

* [[Would Hit a Girl]] / [[Talk to The Fist]]: Spike attacks Anya when she's about to blurt out that he has a soul. He ends up getting [[Punched Across the Room]] by Anya in [[Game Face]].
