b"Well guys, We're back with some Buffy! And these two episodes came close to being good, but fell a bit short.
The first one gives us a connection to Buffy's old life in LA- and old chum resurfaces, and somehow knows she's the Slayer. And while the actor playing Ford is lacking here, it's nice to see Buffy struggling and having some character growth. Ford is a moron, though- banking on the goodwill of Spike without a backup plan. And it naturally goes as well as can be expected. Plus Money gets schooled on goth clubs in the 90s.

Giles' past also comes back to bite him- his band is slowly being killed by a demon who melts into Windex Jello when it loses a host, and poor Ms. Calendar gets caught in the middle. Ethan resurfaces, and Money cannot get enough Robin Sachs. The resolution doesn't make a whole lot of sense, but not a whole lot does."
