Air date: October 13, 1998
Writer: David Greenwalt
Director: James A. Contner
Trivia:
- The band playing at the Bronze in this episode is Darling Violetta, who later would provide the title theme for the Angel.
- The title has the remarkable trait of being simply the list of the names of three characters that made their first appearance in this episode: Faith Lehane, Scott Hope and Trick the vampire. The title is even a mocking of the Three Theological Virtues of Christianism, with "Trick" as a substitute of "Charity".
- Seniors at Sunnydale High School are allowed to leave school grounds for lunch.
- Sunnydale has a fiberoptic network.
- Faith's Watcher is the first female Watcher to be mentioned on the show since Giles' grandmother in "Never Kill a Boy on the First Date."
- More Sunnydale locations: State Street, which has a movie theater on it, and the Downtowner Apts. Motel.
- There is a Watchers Council.
Goofs:
- When Faith asks Buffy about her hardest kill, Buffy is about to tell her about the Three, but in fact Buffy didn't kill the Three. Buffy and Angel ran back to her house, and then Darla killed the Three for failing the Master.
- At the end, as Angel lies naked on the floor, it looks like the tattoo on his back is missing.
References:
- "When did you become Martha Stewart?" Martha Stewart is a frighteningly perky and omnipresent homemaking expert, writer, and television personality whose name has become synonymous with domestic expertise.
- "Makes D.C. look like Mayberry!" D.C. refers to Washington.
- "What was the last thing that guy danced to, K.C. & the Sunshine Band?" K.C. & the Sunshine Band were one of the biggest stars of the disco era in the late 1970's.
- "All I'm sayin' is, we stay local"”where the humans are jumpin' and the cotton is high"”but we live global." Mr. Trick is misquoting "Summertime," the lullaby sung by Clara to her baby in the beginning of George Gershwin's 1935 "folk opera" Porgy & Bess.
- "But I'm the one getting Single White Female'd here." In the 1992 movie Single White Female, Bridget Fonda plays a woman whose roommate, played by Jennifer Jason Leigh, starts to copy her lifestyle and her look, and eventually tries to kill her in an insane attempt to completely take over her life.
Body Count:
- Happy Burger Employee, Pizza Delivery Boy, Motel Manager, Kakistos, 5 other vampires.
Best Quotes:
- Buffy: When I killed him, Angel was cured. Your spell worked at the last minute, Will. I was about to take him out, and, um... something went through him... and he was Angel again. He-he didn't rememebr anything that he'd done. He just held me. Um, but i-it was... it was too late, and I-I had to. So I-I told him that I loved him... and I kissed him... and I killed him. I don't know if that helps with your spell or not, Giles.
- Faith: God, I could eat a horse. Isn't it crazy how slaying just always makes you hungry and horny?
- Buffy: Oh, no... I have to go take an English make-up exam. They give you credit just for speaking it, right?
- Buffy: Maybe I should introduce you again. Faith, this is Giles.
Faith: I've seen him. If I'da known they came that young and cute, I would've requested a transfer.
Buffy: Raise your hand if eww.
- Xander: And they say young people don't learn anything in high school nowadays, but, um, I've learned to be afraid.
- Cordelia: Oh, you mean 'cause of how the only guy that ever liked her turned into a vicious killer and had to be put down like a dog?
- Oz: Alright, prepare to uncouple... Uncouple.
- Xander: Aw, you wanna date. I saw that half-smile, you little slut.
- Faith: Hey, as long as you don't go scratching at me or humpin' my leg, we're five by five.
- Buffy: Oh, the one that nearly bit me mentioned something about 'kissing toast'. He lived for kissing toast.
Giles: You mean, Kakistos?
Buffy: Maybe it was taquitos. Maybe he lived for taquitos. What?
