- GoofsJenny Calendar's computer is a generic unbranded PC. And yet when she hides the "Translator Pro" program from Giles you can clearly see an Apple OS desktop (probably System 7 since OS 8 was released in 1997, the same year as this season).

Featured review
A 10 rating just seems way too low
This is the greatest episode of Buffy I have seen so far. The plot of the episode is intriguing, compelling, and so interesting that I don't think I can ever forget it. Also, for once, the actors don't over-act and actually portray the emotions that the characters would feel with complete honesty. Alyson Hannigan is the best actress of the show. She gives an excellent performance in this episode demonstrating the simple charm that makes her characters on TV/in movies so likable. Sarah Michelle Gellar, who I think is an average actress at best, gives a surprisingly deep performance. I also appreciate the character development of Buffy, Giles, Angel, Spike, and Cordelia.
The tone of the episode is also something worthy of admiration. The plot developed so wonderfully as well. I usually feel that episodes of Buffy have great premises but carelessness ruins them. The plots are usually either fallacious, underdeveloped, stretched, or ruined in some other way (whether it's with minor mistakes or gigantic plot holes). However, this episode did not have much of that. The tone is exhilarating and so appropriate to the story. The music adds to this tone and makes the episode even more amazing. This is not an episode of Buffy to miss.
