"Buffy" Episode 7.17, "Mothers and Sons"
By Edward Havens Date: January 31, 2002
Of the staff here, I seem to be the one least familiar with "Buffy the Vampire Slayer." My wife is a fanatic of the show, which is not a bad thing by any means. Togetherm we have all three seasons released on DVD thus far, the "Buffy" board game, the "Buffy" XBox game (we bought the system just so she could have this game), a truckload of "Buffy" books, every "Buffy" comic made... she even put a Buffy and Angel litho over our bed! But she's in court all day today, so I couldn't rely on her expertise. Amy, our resident television commentator and a righteous "Buffy" fan in her own right, is also out of commission for the day. But when we get info this good from our trusted casting sources, we don't want to hold it. The fans must be told.
In the upcoming 17th episode, called "Mothers and Sons," Principal Robin Wood goes vampire hunting, in search of Spike, the vampire who killed his mother (revealed two episodes before this). You might remember her. Nicki, the Foxy Brown-looking Slayer from the East Village that Spike took out in episode 5.7, "Fool For Love." As Wood hunts for Spike, he flashes back to 1977. He remembers a time when he was four years old, hiding behind a park bench in Central Park, watching with wide eyes as his mother fights to a truce against Spike. As the episode progresses, Wood will continue to go back to his childhood and remember his mother.
Wood is not the only one doing some reminiscing. The hunted, Spike, also flashes back to an earlier time with his mother, Constance. Seen in 1880, Constance is a frail, sickly woman in her 50s with a kind and gentle spirit, who dotes on her son's lame poetry and showers him with her loving pride. It is during this time that Drusilla turned Spike into a vampire, although it's not yet clear if we will see a repeat of this part of his history in this flashback. One of the first actions Spike takes after his transformation is to give his mother eternal life as well, but he only succeeds in transforming her into a monster. Unwilling to lead a vampire's life, Constance denounces Spike, (swipe to reveal secret message) forcing him to combat. Spike kills his mother, but just before she dies, Constance reverts back to the kind and gentle woman she was "“ then explodes into dust.(end spoiler)
The episode begins shooting on February 7th.
