Line 6:
This was the last appearance for both Jonathan and Warren.
 
* [[A Date Withwith Rosie Palms]]: Anya complains about Andrew hogging the toilet for half an hour. When she discovers he's making a documentary she says, "Why can't you just masturbate like the rest of us?"
* [[A Day in Thethe Limelight]]: Andrew
* [[Aside Glance]]: Buffy winks at the camera during the 'commercial' scene.
* [[After-Action Patchup]]: Buffy patching up Wood's head wound.
Line 30:
* [[Circling Monologue]]: Buffy confronting Andrew in the basement.
* [[Comically Missing the Point]]: Andrew assumes Spike and Robin trading insults is a sign of [[Belligerent Sexual Tension]].
* [[Continuity Porn]]: Thanks to the Seal, everything Buffy dealt with in Sunnydale High in the first few season starts happening at once - e.g, a girl [[Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV)/Recap/S1 E11 Out of Mind Out of Sight|turning invisible because no-one notices her]]. Buffy also mentions the [[Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV)/Recap/S2 E20 Go Fish|swim team monsters]] and [[Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV)/Recap/S3 E20 The Prom|killer prom dogs]] to Robin.
* [[Conversation Cut]]
{{quote| '''Andrew:''' (talking to Buffy in the graveyard) But the story needs--<br />
Line 38:
* [[Daydream Surprise]]: [[The Teaser]] opens with Andrew giving a [[Masterpiece Theater]] introduction, then when Anya hammers on the door he's revealed to be sitting on the toilet.
* [[Dissimile]]: "Buffy and Spike have some kind of history. You can feel the heat between them. Although, technically, as a vampire, he's room temperature."
* [[Distracted Byby the Sexy]]: Willow snuggles with Kennedy during Buffy's [[Rousing Speech]].
** Also "A bus to where?"
* [[Documentary Episode]]: Managed to make Andrew's pre-existing inclination to fantasizing plot-relevant and use it for hilarious deconstruction of the other regulars at the same time.
Line 59:
* [[Imagine Spot]]: "We are goooods!"
* [[In the Back]] / [[Conveniently-Timed Attack From Behind]]: Wood tries to stake Spike while his back is turned, only to be tackled by a possessed student.
* [[It Was a Dark Andand Stormy Night]]: "It was cold last night, and the wind was crew-ell, but the Slayer had a job to do."
* [[Gun Struggle|Knife Struggle]]: One of the alternate versions of Jonathan's death.
* [[Leaning Onon the Fourth Wall]]
* [[Made of Evil]]: "This whole thing is being orchestrated by something called 'The First'. It's made up of all the evil in the whole world."
* [[Man of Wealth and Taste]] / [[Masterpiece Theatre]]
* [[Mundane Utility]] / [[Squick]]: Using the sacrificial knife as a steak knife.
* [[Mysterious Past]] / [[Mad Scientist]] / [[Badass in Aa Nice Suit]]
* [[Not So Above It All]]: Spike only pretends to not like being video taped.
* [["Not Wearing Pants" Dream]]
Line 72:
* [[Rousing Speech]]: Spoofed -- Andrew ducks out of the room when Buffy starts going into another soliloquy, noting that they can go on for some time. A few minutes later he looks to see if Buffy has finished -- she's still going on and even Willow is trying to hide a yawn.
* [[Self-Serving Memory]]: When Andrew tries to justify killing Jonathan, we see various flashbacks which differ wildly as he changes his version of events. This prompts Buffy to point out indignantly that he has just completely changed his story.
* [[Shipper Onon Deck]]: Andrew happily ships Buffy/Spike, Willow/Kennedy, Anya/Xander, and Wood/Spike. Subverted in that Andrew completely misreads the last two pairings.
* [[Slow Motion]] / [[Light Is Good]] / [[Dramatic Wind]] / [[Hair Flip]]
* [[Smash to Black]]: The episode ends with Andrew turning off the camera.
