Line 6:
Faith takes Buffy's body for a joyride and then plans to skip town with it. Buffy-in-Faith's body is kidnapped by a Watchers Council wet work team.
 
* [[A Day in Thethe Limelight]]: To drive the point home, [[Eliza Dushku]] is credited as "Buffy".
* [[Aren't You Going to Ravish Me?]]: Faith tries to get Riley to do nasty things to Buffy's body, for some sick reason known only to her. The fact he doesn't helps her along her [[Heel Face Turn]].
* [[Aura Vision]]: Tara realises something is wrong with Buffy because her aura is "fragmented," as if someone had forced something into it that didn't belong.
Line 12:
* [[Becoming the Mask]]: On the verge of leaving Sunnydale, Faith returns to deal with a gang of vampires who have taken over a church.
{{quote| '''Faith:''' I'm Buffy. I have to do this.}}
* [[Blessed Withwith Suck]]: Adam points out that vampires, being immortal, fear dying even more than those to whom death is inevitable.
* [[Book'Em Danno]]: Averted when the spec ops team are hauling off an injured Buffy.
{{quote| '''Weatherby:''' By order of the Watcher's Council, you are being taken into custody until such time-- <br />
Line 36:
{{quote| I could have anything. Anyone. Even you, Spike. I could ride you at a gallop until your legs buckled and your eyes rolled up. I've got muscles you've never even ''dreamed'' of. I could ''squeeze'' you until you pop like warm champagne and you'd ''beg'' me to hurt you just a little bit more.}}
* [[Foe Yay]]: If Spike wasn't sexually obsessed with Slayers before, he certainly would be after Faith's little speech.
* [[Foreshadowing]]: "When they get this chip out, [[Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV)/Recap/S6 E9 Smashed|you and me are going to have a confrontation]]."
** The next stage in Adam's plan is shown by his gaining followers [[Fantastic Racism|across the vampire/demon divide]].
* [[Friend Versus Lover]]: Subverted; Willow thinks Tara is pulling this, but Tara means it [[Not Herself|literally]].
Line 52:
* [[Grand Theft Me]]: Buffy fears her greatest enemy will take her rightful body to Mexico.
* [[Heel Realization]]: Faith begins to come to terms that she had become a monster.
* [[Hey, That's My Line!]]
{{quote| '''Anya:''' We were going to light a bunch of candles and have sex near them.<br />
'''Faith-in-Buffy's-body:''' Well, we certainly don't want to cut into that seven minutes.<br />
Line 78:
'''Giles:''' ([[Beat]]) All right, I didn't know what you were going to say. }}
* [[Not Herself]]: Faith keeps all her mannerisms, and has to wildly improvise when meeting Buffy's newer friends (like Anya) for the first time.
* [[Not Right in Thethe Bed]]
* [[Not-So-Harmless Villain]]: The Watchers' Council goes from bumbling and inept to badass killers. This is justified by their agents being a special operations team of a kind they didn't send before.
** Particularly apparent when Buffy tries much the same hostage trick Faith used to escape the Watchers before. They don't care.
* [[Off Withwith His Head]]: Adam is showing Boone's vampire gang who's top dog.
{{quote| '''Adam:''' You fear the cross. The sun. Fire. And, oh, yes... (Adam pulls a vampire's head off through sheer strength) I believe decapitation is a problem as well. }}
* [[Prison Rape]]: Buffy!Faith shocks Joyce by laughing over how 'Faith' will be showered with affection by "big ole Bertha" in prison -- she quickly backpedals pretending to be upset over how Joyce was attacked. Ironically Buffy has made similar comments in the past, though of course never in front of her mother.
* [[Professional Killer|Professional Killers]]: The Watchers Council Special Operations Team.
* [[Punch Clock Villain]]: While Weatherby [[Knight Templar|truly believes in the Council's mission]], Collins' just doing his job.
* [[Put Onon a Bus]]: Faith doesn't reappear in Sunnydale until three years later. She does however become a recurring character in ''[[Angel (TV)|Angel]]''.
* [[Rage Against the Reflection]]: By the time [[Grand Theft Me|Fuffy and Baith]] throw down, Faith sees herself as a [[Complete Monster]]. So she wails on Buffy with [[Punctuated Pounding|a number of derogatory remarks]]...about herself, despite Buffy being in Faith's body Faith is trying to hurt herself.
{{quote| '''Buffy-in-Faith's-body:''' You can't win this.<br />
'''Faith-in-Buffy's-body:''' Shut up! Do you think I'm afraid of you? ''(starts punching Buffy, beating her own face)'' You're nothing! Disgusting! Murderous bitch! You're nothing! [[You Make Me Sick|You're disgusting!]] }}
* [[Required Spinoff Crossover]]: Faith's story continues in the ''[[Angel (TV)|Angel]]'' episode "[[Angel (TV)/Recap/S01 E18 Five By Five|Five by Five]]"
* [[Revealing Hug]]: Faith grimaces and pulls free of Joyce's embrace, not used to such [[Abusive Parents|motherly affection]].
* [[Romantic Two-Girl Friendship]]: Why is Willow wearing one of Buffy's rings?
Line 126:
* [[While You Were in Diapers]]: Faith to Forrest.
{{quote| "I've been fighting demons since before you could shave."}}
* [[Who Are You?]]: The [[Title Drop]] -- Faith asks it of Riley (after being freaked out by his gentleness) and later Riley asks the question of Buffy (being puzzled as to why a strange girl is addressing him in a familiar manner).
* [[With My Hands Tied]]: Collins goes to execute Buffy-in-Faith's body; Buffy grabs his pistol between her feet and pulls his head into the bars, then uses the gun to shoot out the various locks.
* [[You Have to Believe Me]] / [[Spot the Imposter]]: Buffy is quite able to convince Giles that it's her by rattling off a string of rather embarrassing facts about their relationship that Faith couldn't know.
{{quote| '''Buffy-in-Faith:''' Giles, [[Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV)/Recap/S4 E12 A New Man|you turned into a demon]] and I knew it was you! I mean, can't you just look in my eyes and be all intuitive?<br />
'''Giles:''' ''(suddenly interested)'' How did I turn into a demon?<br />
'''Buffy-in-Faith:''' Oh! 'cause, uh... Ethan Rayne! And-and you have a girlfriend named Olivia, and you haven't had a job since we blew up the school... ''(beat)'' ... which is valid, lifestyle-wise. ''(Giles is abashed)'' I mean, it's not like you're a slacker type or - Oh, oh! [[Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV)/Recap/S3 E19 Earshot|When I had psychic power]], I heard my mom think that you were [[Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV)/Recap/S3 E6 Band Candy|like a stevedore during sex]]. Wh- Do you want me to continue?<br />
'''Giles:''' Actually, I beg you to stop.<br />
'''Buffy-in-Faith:''' What's a stevedore?<ref> A type of dock worker who unloads boat merchandise. Needless to say he has to be very fit regarding ummm...repetitive tasks.</ref> }}
