With the Mayor’s Ascension drawing near, Buffy and the gang make a daring move to steal his source of power the Box of Gavrok. But when the mission takes a turn and Willow’s captured, Buffy’s forced to strike a risky deal to save her. As they prepare for what’s ahead, she’s confronted with the choices that come with growing up, letting go, and deciding what kind of future a Slayer can really have.
We’ve officially dubbed this the “Willow’s a Badass” episode! Hear our thoughts on what makes Willow stand out, the choices everyone’s suddenly forced to make..good, bad & messy.. also why in the hell Snyder is so drug-obsessed out of nowhere. We dive into how choice shapes this whole season (and honestly, real life), all while gearing up to revisit The Prom for Courtney’s second time seeing it since we first watched it together way back when.
What do you think about the crossroads everyone’s facing this episode and the different ways each character handles change? Did you love Willow’s moment of strength and her sharp exchange with Faith? And how do you feel about the Mayor’s speech to Buffy..was it manipulation, or uncomfortable truth wrapped in charm?
