-Synopsis
-Superfans have been dreading this episode since the start of the podcast.
-Joss included Amber for the first time in the opening credits in this episode on purpose because he thought it would be "cute."
-The shooting environment for this show sounds so stressful.
-This whole echo chamber effect for Joss' work doesn't do him any favors.

-The inclusion of guns here was an interesting twist in the plot.
-We want to like Jonathan, but that's mostly because he's played by Danny Strong.

-That's it, Mitch is going to Pigfarts.
-The contrast between Tara and Willow getting back together and the end of this episode is crushing.
-Is Dawn gay? Or why is she so excited about the sex happening in her house?
-Aaaaand we're done with anything resembling a fun and pleasant conversation.
-Dawn should not have stuck her nose into Spike's business.
-Yeah, trigger warning for this whole episode.

-Why is killing the lesbian girlfriend such a troupe?
-Is the treating of gay characters like this homophobic?
-Ariana's finally to the point of liking Buffy!
-The Trio is no longer the bigger threat, as Evil Willow falls into line.
