The Watchers Council of Great Britain descends on the Magic Box with a power play - Buffy passes their tests and she gets crucial info on Glory. But who watches the Watchers? Heh. The Buffy Boys stock up on tweed in S05E12 "Checkpoint".
Key Buffy Bits from this episode include:
- Spike: A Thesis, and the parodying of academic Buffy Studies in-universe
- The performative co-dependence of Slayer as instrument/Council as master
- Plot armour - the compliant pacing of Glory's scheme
- "We're in love. W-we're lovers. We're lesbian, gay-type lovers."
