While being a bit tongue-in-cheek (I’ll let you decide who’s tongue in who’s cheek) this pulls together just about all of the great Spike and Buffy moments.

Hot.

Buffy’s back for the first episode of Season 2!After a summer with her father in L.A., Buffy returns to Sunnydale noticeably less sunny. Her near death experience at the hand of the Master months before has given her a serious case of the wiggins, and she’s not handling it well. (Highlight of the episode, watch poor Xander squirm while Buffy tries to seduce him with the dance of the veiled bitca!)

Meanwhile The Annointed One has hatched a plan to resurrect The Master…unfortunately for our Scoobies, that requires the sacrifice of everyone that had been in the vicinity of The Master when he died…in this case, Willow, Miss Calendar, Giles and Cordelia. Buffy realizes the importance of her friends when she is forced to save them and her less bitchy, more quippy self returns.

Directed by: Joss Whedon
Original Air Date: September 15, 1997
Guest Stars: Dean Butler (Hank Summers)
Trivia:

• David Boreanaz became a regular cast member as of this episode.
• Apparently, Giles, Willow and Xander (it is assumed) figured taking the Master’s bones from the library and burying him three feet deep in the Sunnydale Cemetary covered in soil watered with holy water was a good enough defense to keep him from coming back. Silly Scoobies.

Quotes:Cordelia: Whatever is causing the Joan Collins ‘tude, deal with it. Embrace the pain, spank your inner moppet, whatever, but get over it.

Willow: That’s what it was! I mean, why else would she be acting like such a b-i-t-c-h?

Giles: Willow, I think we’re all a little too old to be spelling things out.

Xander: A bitca?

Key Events:

• Season 2 starts.
• Joss directs his second episode
• Buffy totally confuses poor Xander by dancing seductively with him at the Bronze.
