The scoobies are taken to “sitcom plot device land” as they are each given an egg to look after as an exercise in parenting.  Of course, since this IS Sunnydale, the eggs do not contain sweet, fuzzy chicks, but rather vile, facesucking, mind-controlling “bezoars”.  Luckily, Buffy and Xandor manage to avoid being taken over by the nasty creatures, and rush off to save their friends from…whatever that is under the school. Also, in this episode, we are introduced to two of the meanest, toughest, rootin-tootin-est vampires to ever walk the vast plains of California! (Those Gorch brothers rock!)
