... it's about how you choose to live your life. It would fit right in on AtS, but it's unusual on BtVS. I can only think of a few episodes that take a similar approach.

... old reviews, I was feeling proud of my alternate episode titles (that I used to post under the heading as an attempt to be funny or clever in my humorless way). "Wow," I thought, "at the beginning of BTVS S7 and then to a lesser extent for ATS S4, I was on my game. I rock, don't I?" Then I saw that I'd made two consecutive obscure references to the video game _Final Fantasy IV_, and I don...

... interactions (to go along with Wes being a reflection of Angel, as usual), yet I don't think it ever feels like something that was shoehorned in to Lilah's character.
