    Buffy the Vampire Slayer - Becoming, Part II
    Buffy the Vampire Slayer - The Body

    It was a very tough decision. But the quote SotS chose for "The Body" won me over.

    But I don't understand! I don't understand how this all happens, how we go through this. I mean - I knew her, and then she's... there's just a body, and I don't understand why she just can't get back in it and not be dead anymore! It's stupid! It's mortal and stupid! And... and Xander's crying and not talking, and... and I was having fruit punch, and I thought, "Well, Joyce will never have any more fruit punch - ever, and she'll never have eggs, or yawn, or brush her hair, not ever," and no one will explain to me why.

    Becoming, Part II. That was just hardcore!

    The Body. Anya's monologue does it for me. I get choked up every time I hear it. That, and Dawn's reaction gets to me also. I mean, her classmates are watching and everything...

    Just going through the thread now.

    Perhaps the best hour of Sci-Fi ever was Severed Dreams. People need to watch more B5.

    A shame Pegasus had to go up against it.

    Aye, if it's one thing I've learned from this tournament- it's that not enough people have watched B5 and have been watching too much Buffy ;)

    Buffy the Vampire Slayer - The Gift

    She could've killed me.

    - Ben


    No, she couldn't. Never. And sooner or later Glory will re-emerge, and make Buffy pay for that mercy. And the world with her. Buffy even knows that... and still she couldn't take a human life. She's a hero, you see... She's not like us.

    I do know my Bible, sir. "On the night of their betrothal, the wife shall open to the man as the furrow to the plow. And he shall work in her in and again 'til she bring him to his full and rest him then upon the sweat of her breast."

    Oh. Good Bible.

    Amen. You hear that, you bastards. All or nothing. Wormhole doubles two more times. Moya goes first. Twenty seconds later, you join us. Either way, this war is over. Peace.

    I was thinking the same thing about The Twilight Zone.

    And if you ask me what the problem is with that, I will smite down upon you with furious vengeance.
