The aftermath of Faiths tragic mistake pushes Buffy and her to a breaking point. As Buffy tries to help her face what they’ve done, Faith begins slipping deeper into denial, defiance, and darkness. The Watchers’ Council tightens its grip, the Mayor sees an opening, and the fragile bond between the Slayers starts to fracture beyond repair culminating in the moment that will change them both forever.
You reap what you sow — and this week on Revamped we’re digging deep into the Consequences of Faith’s actions. We unpack her inability to cope with what she’s done and how frustrating it is to watch her dodge accountability, even as Buffy keeps showing up as a true friend — offering chance after chance for Faith to face her mistakes. We break down Angel’s role as the perfect mirror for Faith — the one person who knows what it means to fall into darkness and still fight for redemption. Courtney isn’t exactly shocked to see Faith drifting toward The Mayor, and we dive into why that move feels both inevitable and tragic. This episode sparks a bigger talk on moral reckoning — the ripple effect of a single choice, and how denial can be just as destructive as the act itself. It’s a true turning point where the Slayers’ paths finally split, setting the stage for everything that follows.
What do you think of this major shift in Faith’s arc? Did you see it coming or were you blind sighted by it? How do you feel about her turning to the Mayor and crossing over into darkness? Do you think Buffy shows a lot of care and concern for Faith being helped and what did you think about Mr. Trick meeting his demise?
