Line 6: * [[Big Damn Heroes]]: Averted -- Buffy runs to save Spike, but he's already got the situation under control, and Buffy isn't even needed to save Wood. * [[But for Me It Was Tuesday]]: A subversion where the murdered family member actually ''isn't'' just another victim. {{quote\| '''Robin Wood:''' Oh, I know more about you than you think, Spike. See, I've been searching for you for a very, very long time. Ever since you killed my mother.~~<br />~~ '''Spike:''' I've killed a lot of people's mothers.~~<br />~~ '''Robin Wood:''' Yeah. You'd remember mine. She was a Slayer. }} * [[Call Back]]: To "Helpless" (Giles betraying Buffy), and "The Gift" (Giles being willing to kill people that Buffy isn't, for the greater good). * [[Casual Danger Dialogue]]: Buffy and Robert the vampire. * [[Continuity Cavalcade]] / [[It's a Long Story]]: Buffy and Giles attempt to explain Spike's various [[Restraining Bolt\|Restraining Bolts]] to newcomer Robin Wood. {{quote\| '''Giles:''' Well, uh, it's a ... long story.~~<br />~~ '''Buffy:''' The military put a chip in Spike's head so he couldn't hurt anyone.~~<br />~~ '''Giles:''' And that would be the abridged version.~~<br />~~ '''Buffy:''' But he wouldn't hurt anyone anymore because he has a soul now.~~<br />~~ '''Giles:''' Unless the First triggers him again.~~<br />~~ '''Robin:''' Triggers the chip?~~<br />~~ '''Buffy:''' No, the trigger's a post-hypnotic thing. The First put it in his head. It was ... made him ... He was killing again.~~<br />~~ '''Robin:''' So, he has a trigger, a soul, and a chip?~~<br />~~ '''Giles:''' Not anymore!~~<br />~~ '''Buffy:''' It was killing him, Giles!~~<br />~~ '''Robin:''' The trigger?~~<br />~~ '''Buffy:''' No, the chip. The trigger's not active anymore.~~<br />~~ '''Robin:''' Because the military gave him a soul? }} * [[Continuity Nod]]: Spike's [[Foe Yay\|attraction to Nikki Wood]], which he mentioned to Buffy in "Fool for Love". Spike also twirls his shovel in the alley fight, as he did when pole-fighting Nikki Wood on the subway train. Line 32: ** Spike calling Dawn "niblet" and expressing concern for her refers to their [[Morality Pet]] relationship in Season 5. * [[Comically Missing the Point]]: Drusilla can't understand why Spike wants to bring his mother with them as they rampage across Europe. {{quote\| '''Drusilla:''' To eat, you mean?}} ** Buffy is fighting with a vampire called Richard while arguing with Giles. {{quote\| '''Buffy:''' I'm in the fight of my life here!~~<br />~~ '''Vampire:''' (pleased) Really?~~<br />~~ '''Buffy:''' Not you, Richard. }} * [[Conveniently-Timed Attack From Behind]] / [[Improvised Weapon]] / [[Off with His Head]]: Spike saving Wood in the alley. * [[Crossover]]: Willow receives a call from someone called Fred and tells Buffy she has to go to Los Angeles. She shows up in the ''[[Angel]]'' episode "[[Angel/Recap/S04 /E15 Orpheus\|Orpheus]]", where the Fang Gang use her magic skills to restore Angel's soul. Willow is vague as to her reasons for leaving, indicating that Buffy is being kept in the dark about the return of Angelus. * [[Cruel to Be Kind]] * [[Deadpan Snarker]] {{quote\| '''Spike:''' "All the rubbish people keep sticking in my head, there's a wonder there's any room for my brain." ~~<br />~~ '''Giles:''' "I don't think it takes up that much room, do you?" }} * [[Description Cut]]: Buffy saying Dawn is tough, to Dawn wincing as Willow patches her up. Line 65: * [[I Work Alone]]: Lampshaded by Spike re Slayers. * [[Last-Second Word Swap]] {{quote\| '''Buffy:''' ''(to Giles)'' It was boring, old, and English. Just like you...ul. Yul Brenner. A British Yul Brenner.}} * [[Macho Masochism]]: Wood squeezing his stake until his hand bleeds after Spike saves his life. * [[Meaningful Echo]]: "The mission is what matters." Line 71: * [[Momma's Boy]] * [[My Friends and Zoidberg]] {{quote\| '''Buffy:''' Have you seen me with those girls? The way I treated my friends, and my family, and Andrew.}} * [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero]]: Buffy's split with Wood and Giles culminates in their lack of support in "Empty Places". * [[Nice Job Fixing It, Villain]]: Wood cures Spike, and Giles forces Buffy to act like a General. Line 80: * [[Poisonous Friend]] * [[Power Fist]] * [[Punctuated! ~~for~~For! Emphasis!]]: "I-AM-CALM!" * [[Room Full of Crazy]]: A subtle version of this trope in the Room Full of Crosses built by Wood to trap Spike, hinting at his obsession with revenge. * [[Rousing Speech]] Line 101: {{reflist}} [[Category:Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV)/Recap]]▼ [[Category:Recap]] [[Category:Buffy the Vampire Slayer]] ▲[[Category:Buffy the Vampire Slayer ~~(TV)~~/Recap]]
