Episode Fourteen
Some of the info here has already come out in the 'Killer In Me' info
or from other sources. I'm just repeating it again, because it does
confirm the above events.

I've got just a little on the episode at this point, but my source
called it Xander-centric. I don't have anything more than that at this
point, except for that there might be a bit of mystery surrounding him.
Meanwhile, Willow/Kennedy are definitely a couple (or at least that's
the way the Scoobies are viewing them), and Giles brings another
Slayer-In-Training, Chao-Ahn, into the mix (who is from Asia and
doesn't speak much English). Giles is touching things at this point.
Also, Buffy has her doubts about Principal Wood and 'The First' seems
to be trying to find another way to get to the Scoobs (I don't have any
info on Spike, but I think 'The First' has given up on him)

-Tensai said on his site that this is a Xander-centric eppy but I would
not say that he is the important development in this episode.
-Xander goes on a date but the date turns out not to be human.
-Also, in this episode, Buffy goes on a date with Wood for a variety of
reasons. Some will think it's Machiavellian (Keep your enemies close)
and some will think it's to prove she's not in love with Spike.
-During the course of the date, Wood reveals his family ties to a
character previously on the show.
-Finally confirmed is the fact that Wood does seem to be under FE's
control.
This all that I am going to say about this episode. I'm sorry in
advance but I won't be answering individual questions because of work.

Join me in the Crypt of Decryption:

Information on episode 14, titled "First Date," is starting to emerge.
It will probably air the week of Valentine's Day, and it seems to focus
on romance--Buffy's date with Wood and her feelings for Spike, Xander's
date and Anya's jealousy, and Willow and Kennedy's new relationship.

Wonald's information matches my own, though I believe Wood is not
necessarily under the First's control but is visited by the First. The
First does make another appearance in this episode, in the form of
Jonathan, talking with Andrew.

In between episodes 13 and 14, Buffy has decided to have Spike's chip
removed, much to Giles' consternation. He thinks she is letting her
judgment be clouded by her feelings for Spike. Buffy denies having any
such feelings. So, when Principal Wood asks her out to dinner, she
accepts for a variety of reasons, mentioned by Wonald above. Spike is
not jealous; he tells her that he's given up any idea that they will
get together. He's not entirely unaffected, though. He knows Wood is a
rival, but Spike doesn't put any pressure on Buffy. By the end of the
episode, it's clear to Wood that Spike and Buffy are close, not that
Buffy is admitting anything. Though her feelings for Spike seem to be
on everyone's minds throughout the episode, the most Buffy will admit
to is that she doesn't want Spike to leave town. Spike offers to leave
town because the First told Andrew that he has plans for Spike, but
Buffy wants him to stay.

WOW, this sure looks interesting to me, finally we know what's up with that guy!
 
Yes, sounds great! The whole 'Spike's chip being removed' thing means the return of The Initiative.. boo! I never liked them. I'm not THAT keen on the Buffy/Wood pairing, but, meh..
 
I think those two pairing up is a great thing, the first time I saw Wood I said he might make it to being her boyfriend!
 
I hope Spike leaves Sunnydale and never come back.
As for the whole Buffy/Wood thing, why? I don't think they make a great couple. And I think Spike is jealous. But I hope Spike leaves forever.
 
You SO did not just say that! *twitches* 😛 Fine, if Buffy and Wood hook up, Spike can go and find Dru. That'd work out, right? Buffy's been clouding his judgement, anyway. It's Dru he wants, I know it. :3
 
I'm not THAT keen on the Buffy/Wood pairing, but, meh..

I am not too keen on Buffy and Wood pairing, as well. I feel that
there is no chemistry between the two, also they have not establish any trust to actually start dating, so I do not believe Buffy intend on dating him. she probably is trying to figure him out. also it way too soon for her to jump into a relationship, considering she has not really figure out what part Spike plays in her life, or why she wants him to stay.



Xander: Xander's dating someone New, who not human😱 Hmm? Has Xander ever dated an girl who was humen, beside Cordy?::nono::
 
Do you consider the S3-Cordy human?

I think it's great those to pairing up, there's definatly something up with Wood and what better way to find it out! As for Spike and Buffy, the care about each other, a lot, but they know they'll never be a real couple! Anyway I don't think Spike's leaving, though I'd like him to go to "Ripper"!
 
Oh my God - what am I reading there ... ?? sounds like a upcoming B/S - Romance .... YIPPIE !!!

I Think she´s just going out with Wood to demonstrate that she´s not in love with Spike - and I think for Buffy that´s most normal reaction when she´s in love with him ..

`cause if she ´s not - why would she show that in that way ??
Buffy - as we know her , would just kick his ass and ignore him - and that´s it ... but she don´t act like that - so I think , that she has very strong feelings for him ..

Even Giles seems to notice it - and I really , really hope so too ...
Yes I know I´m a bad & stupid B/S - Shipper - but I´ll stay with it - Buffy & Spike should be together !
 
Not sure what I think of the whole Buffy/Principal Wood thing. Guess I'll have to wait and see it to develop a good opinion of the character chemistry.

Xander has absolutly no luck with women lol
