I have to say, I think 'Dirty Girls' was probably my favourite episode in season 7 including chosen, obviously and I do like end of days. But I think 'Dirty Girls' wins them all for me. I love how Faith made a return to Buffy for the final episodes of the show, can you imagine a finale without faith? I can't! The main reason I enjoyed this episode is because how good the stunts were! I love the fight scene at the end of the episode, it's amazing! Just how they were throwing everything they could at Caleb and nothing was working into Buffy got back up and gave him a good kick in! And I could actually feel the anger she would of felt. Just thought I'd post this to get some opinions off you guys🙂 and sorry if a similar thread has been posted, I didn't see one so I'd thought I'd do my own 🙂

Nothing was working until*
 
I love it, even though I love Buffy Vs Faith fights I much prefer when the two slayers are working together, I love how we realized that even with two slayers they couldn't win and they had to be stronger. I also love the conversation Buffy and Faith have when they walking to the scene together about Angel 🙂
 
"Chosen" is probably the most epic episode of S7, but I agree, "Dirty Girls" is the best. It's just so intense. Caleb arrives with a huge bang (his is probably the best introduction episode for any villain I've ever seen, including Angelus, which is saying something), and his entrance in the truck at the beginning is so creepy, but in a cool way.

And the climax is incredible. It was a lot like when Angelus killed Jenny Calender back in "Passion". Xander having his eye carved out is one of those moments that makes you sit back and go "holy crap! What just happened!?" And of course, Faith's return was awesome to see. I love Faith, and seeing her finally return to the show was really cool to see.

You know what's one moment I really remember from "Dirty Girls"? When Caleb seizes Xander and has his eternally creepy little monologue to him, Spike turns slowly to look at them and he just has this look on his face that more than anything else made me take Caleb really seriously. He's afraid of Caleb, and Spike, the badass vampire who's seen and done it all, is shocked by what he's seeing. Kudos to James Marsters. It's funny how it's the small things like that we sometimes remember, but that one really sticks out for me.
 
I love Dirty Girls. The opening is so chilling and fantastic. And I was so happy to see Faith! I really liked the Faith / Angelus trilogy in Angel, although I do think Eliza must've had a cold or something in this episode, it does get better. Sarah Michelle Gellar must have caught it, lol. It has a Passion-esque feel to it, shocking moments, creepy monologues, a tragic ending, etc.

It's really sad, I watched it last night, and I cried when I finished it. Xander, before they all left to the vineyard, gave a speech about how great and how we should all trust Buffy. And then to see him loose an eye, two potentials get killed was so sad. It's tied with CWDP as the best in season seven, in my opinion.
 
"Dirty Girls" is one of my favorite episodes of the series, not just Season 7. I love how Caleb makes his entrance, and Faith coming back was absolutely awesome. 🙂
