Buffy asks Tara to help her figure out why Spike can hurt her. The Trio’s test of a mind control device goes fatally awry, and Warren resolves to frame the slayer. Now under the impression that she has killed an innocent woman, Buffy rushes to submit to human justice when Spike would prefer she submit to him.
Hear us discuss…
- The Trio were trash even before they crossed this line
- Bizarrely, Xander and Anya bring us the joy
- Kara is starting a new career as a foley artist
- If a vampire gets a boner in the woods, how loud is it?
- The Spike dislike is razor sharp right now

Buffy finally decides to pull herself up by her bootstraps via a minimum wage job at a fast-food restaurant. Feeling almost as soulless as the vampire she’s sleeping with, Buffy battles grease, her tyrannical manager, and the ongoing gaslighting of her Scooby pals. Something is wrong at the Doublemeat Palace, and she’s going to stop it.
Hear us discuss…
- Technical difficulties made us feel like we were living the Doublemeat Experience too
- Buffy’s actually so smart and perceptive!
- We hope she’s using protection (gloves and hairnets, of course)
- The true monster is, once again, corporate America
- Did this show predict plant-based burgers?
Trigger warnings
Body horror, severed appendages

Xander finally tells everyone about his and Anya’s engagement, and a party ensues. But Giles has to cut it short to rescue Dawn, who decided to spend this Halloween rolling with a white boy gang. Buffy helps with the rescue, not so much with the parenting. Willow and Tara have a huge fight, so naturally Willow’s only option is mind control.
Hear us discuss…
- Kara only knows less famous actors
- The realistic teenage slang in this episode
- Xander seems totally fine with the prospect of marriage, mmhmm
- Willow has no first gear and it shows
- Giles totally slays
Trigger warning
Rape culture

Buffy tries to figure out what to do with her new lease on life. Should she go back to school? Work construction? Or retail? The Trio’s shenanigans threaten to derail her new life plans before they’ve even started. Spike cheats at kitten poker.
Author Kendare Blake joins us again to talk about why this episode is a light in a dark season.
Hear us discuss…
- Not the Scoobies gaslighting Buffy again
- The show was really worried its sexism in the workplace would be too subtle
- Go, mummy hand, gooooo!
- We rank the Trio’s attempts on our own scale
- Drunk Buffy is a sight to see
Trigger warnings
Alcohol use, sexism
