Confessions of a Liberal Puritan

As usual, you got a lot more than I did out of this episode. (Mostly, I was just thinking that the old Buffy spell-went-wrong episodes were funnier, but I probably need to watch again when I'm in a better mood.)

the whole group is going to have to honestly confront the ways in which the situation at W&H is doing the same thing to them in a much less visible way, dividing them from their own selves and from each other

That's a theme for the season that would be both funny and very much worth watching!
