ok, i have no real reason to find this episode enjoyable. like lyri said, cordy did have some funny scenes, but they were just not funny enough and worth it enough to make me like the episode. i think it had pretty boring, black-and-white, lecture-from-your-parents messages: don't lie to your elders, don't drink, watch your back if you are going to frat parties. i also found the reptile demon kind of lame. i mean i guess it could make
sense that some dumb frat boys would sacrifice people to a demon for wealth and money, but plotwise, it did not interest me. i did not find the episode particularly funny with so many other episodes for it to measure up to, despite xander in a skirt. grrr...i dont like this enough to watch it, which is making it so much harder to remember and make my case ::grrr::! um...oh, i didnt like how angel said that he could not date buffy because of the age difference. though it is good reasoning, logic and reason only have a small place in love sometimes, and for those who dont ship buffy/angel, buffy and spike had an age difference too. age should not matter so much in love if one of you is a
vampire, and if its legal and not a large one, it should not matter in real life either. though i like spike/buffy, i like buffy/angel as well, and did like how this was a negative part of their relationship. another thing: buffy, being a teenager, is guaranteed certain mistakes, but she so should
not have had a drink at that party! and also, it was predictable that there was something
in the drink (to me, at least), so that was not very dramatic. there was a small amount of aspects i liked, such as some of the humor which was good, like:
BUFFY: Well, say it.
XANDER: I'm not gonna say it...
WILLOW: You lied to Giles.
XANDER: ...'Cause she will.
and like angel and buffy making a coffee date at the end. however, none of these things were good enough to get it more than one stake with me. these are what
got it that one! oh, and finally, i think way cooler things could have been done with a snake demon
🙂.
