When a construction site uncovers an old Sunnydale mission, the spirit of a wronged Chumash warrior is unleashed, targeting those connected to the town’s past. As Buffy and the gang struggle to stop the attacks, tensions rise over how to handle the situation, and an unexpected visit from Angel adds another layer to an already tense Thanksgiving.

Join us for Thanksgiving in June with this mostly hilarious take on the holiday as we discuss the trivial aspects of cultural misrepresentation and why this episode hasn't aged particularly well over the years. We live for Spike's new dynamic on the series and weigh in on Angel's return to Sunnydale, along with his decision to keep the visit from Buffy. Hear us talk food, Anya's thirst for Angel, and just how gross Xander looks in this one..post dig site. 

What do you guys think of Angel returning for this episode? Are you pro thanksgiving or not? What are your fav thanksgiving food staples, what needs to be on your table!? Would you show up to watch Xander dig?

When Spike escapes from a secret government facility after being implanted with a device that prevents him from harming humans, Buffy and her friends must deal with his unexpected return. Meanwhile, Riley’s connection to a hidden military operation is revealed, hinting at a larger threat operating beneath Sunnydale.

A hoot and a half this one is.. join us as we theorize when tf this military operation began beneath Sunny D & if it’s just a drug cover up for dear old Joyce Summers. Also hear Courtneys new thoughts on Riley and the reveal of him being one of the commando soldiers we’ve been seeing on campus since the start of the season..along with him falling for Buffy, Spike being chipped and unable to harm humans and finally cheer with us over Parkers face getting hella what it deserved!

Do you guys enjoy this one? How did you react to the reveal of Riley and Maggie Walsh being part of the initiative, did you see it coming or were you as surprised as us on OG watch? Do you love what ill loosely call the fight scene with Harmony & Xander? Did you absolutely 100% positively over the moon LOVE the fact that Parker got decked in the face by Riley? What do you all think about spike becoming chipped and unable to harm humans?

“When a mob boss targets Kate Lockley for revenge, a mysterious sensitivity training seminar at the police precinct begins stripping officers of their emotional control. As the department spirals into forced vulnerability, Angel must uncover the supernatural force behind it before the situation turns deadly.”

A surprisingly strong Kate-centered episode, this week we resonate HARD with her daddy issues…for very valid reasons. We break down Kate’s complicated relationship with her father, the emotional walls built by policing and authority systems, and how the episode questions whether becoming hardened and detached is really necessary to “do the job.” We talk Angel being hilariously affected by this week’s magic mojo, Cordelia and Doyle trying to manage everyone’s breakdowns, and why this episode ended up being way more emotionally layered than expected.

What do you guys think about this episode? How do you guys feel about the emotional angle? And emotional Angel? Lol
How do you feel about Kate and whats shes dealing with and how her father treats her? Do you think theres validity in the way he’s shut down on her? Or is he just a plain and simple capital A- asshole. 
How are we feeling about Wolfram and harts presence resurfacing also and how continue to see they could be major players as villains on this series?

After sensing a connection with mysterious singer Veruca, Oz discovers she shares his werewolf curse, forcing him to confront a darker side of himself he can no longer control. As his bond with Veruca intensifies, Oz’s relationship with Willow begins to unravel, leading to a devastating choice that changes everything.

Why do all good things come to an end? This week we’re left heartbroken alongside Willow as we discuss one of Buffy’s most emotional season four episodes. We weigh in on our heavy, and definitely debatable thoughts surrounding Oz’s betrayal, the expansion of the werewolf mythology, and the surprisingly strong performance from Veruca despite all of us absolutely hating her. Courtney also shares her thoughts on saying goodbye to one of her favorite characters as Wild at Heart changes the course of Willow’s journey moving forward.

Let us know how this episode made or makes you feel!? Did you like the storyline with Veruca and how it played out? Do you agree with willows comment on this being like payback or was that in the moment heated comebacks? 
Do you think oz and veruca are eternal soulmates as delusional Paige moss insinuates? 
Overall, what do you think of Oz’s departure from the series?
