Tara asks what’s so bad about the Council, allowing those who missed out on The Time They Took Away Buffy’s Powers and The Time They Tried To Kill Buffy!Faith to catch up. Xander says what we’ve been thinking for years, and wonders why they can’t just use the phone. Giles informs the gang that the Council are coming to visit, and Buffy freaks out on account of WHAT IF THEY FIND OUT ABOUT DAWN. On the downside for Buffy, she finds one of Riley’s soldier boy jumpers next to the sofa as she scurries around cleaning up. I’m 30 and periodically “Pff” when my mother suggests I dust my room. Lorraine: I’m 26 and have a sacred duty to watch TV for a not-living. Buffy apologises for the house being messy – Joyce still isn’t up to doing the cleaning, and Buffy’s 19 and has a sacred duty to save the planet from evil, so pffff, cleaning. Kirsti: Well, we’re officially into the second half of season 5, y’all! We open at Chez Summers where a Scooby Gang meeting is in progress. Also, Dawn found out that she’s not entirely normal. Previously: Anya and Willow fought a lot and accidentally freed Anya’s troll ex-boyfriend from a magic dohickey.
