Buffy Challenge Post 37: Season 4: Episode 20 - 21

 

10 copy
The Yoko Factor and Primeval

General what's his name is giving feedback to what is happing to his boss.  Yeah who needs a soldier that thinks? Oh never underestimate Buffy as she is not jlust a girl. Spike knows this and lets Robo-demon know. (still think he is a dodgy villain.)

Is it me or does this Adam guy just talk a lot of Crap, the Tommy Robbins of demons! Why doesn't anyone like Xanders taste in clothes. Well Riley is giving us the 30 second wrap of the Buffy and Angel relationship. Riley feels emasculated about Angel. 

Where have you been hiding all this talent there Giles? Spike is right, for a watcher Giles doesn't do a very good job with his peripheral vision. Giles is right not to trust Spike. He is great when it comes to planting the seed of doubt in peoples minds. Is Willow getting a Cat such a good idea seeing she has Amy the rat also as a pet? Willow is starting to feel estranged from Buffy again. Hey I think I use to have a pair of parachute pants like that when I was a kid!

It seems we missed a bit of a plot point that was clearly covered in Angel but this is the Buffy challenge not the Buffy spin off challenge. (yes April, I know I promised I'll watch it.) Xander is joining the Army? Spike is playing everyone against each other really well!

Buffy gets knocked out by Robo-Demon who also kills Riley's buddy and Spike now gets into Willows mind. The initiative is struggling to get things under control and Riley meet Angel, I'm sure you too are going to get along like a house on fire. Angel meets up with Buffy and once again they are talking about something that we missed from Angel. Riley has the Gun pointed at Angel (nice camera angle btw) I thought Riley would know that a bullet won't kill him. Now I'm lost....... I guess I'll find out when I watch Angel season 1.

Spike gives us a history lesson about the Beatles and Yoko Ono. This episode is SLOW!!! So much talking, and nothing happening, Snooze feast '08. (Another DC reference Hanging out the Batcave with Crusty old Alfred!) Drunk Giles Rule! Spike's plan has finally come off. They are fighting against each other. It's official Terra is Willow's Girlfriend to the surprise of Xander. Buffy walks out on her friends and Riley meets up with ADAM? HUH? TO BE CONTINUED? HUH?

The old school house has seen better days. Adam has activated the chip that Walsh has implanted into Riley and has control over him. Chips all around and who ordered the party pack. Hung over Giles doesn't rule as much as drunk Giles.

Is it me or wasn't the scar on the other side of Buffy's forehead in the last episode. I really do love the innocence of Anya and how she keeps things really simple. Xander doesn't realize how lucky he is sometimes. Adam's master plan is coming to fruition and  I couldn't care less. Zombie Walsh and Frankenstein Forest are just creepy and not in a good way. They figure out that Spike has been the splinter between them and it still has a real stench of things. Big shock that Spike is working with the bad guys. Xander I miss the Mayor!

Xander finally came up with a great idea without knowing it. Buffy walks into an ambush and Spike doesn't get what he wants and runs. You know the Coronal has asked a question that we have wanted to know, "What kinds of freaks are you?" Robo-Demon lets the monsters out of the cage so he can start the harvest. We have a Demon Vs Soldier battle royal on our hands. 

Buffy gets ambushed and Riley does some "Do it yourself" surgery to remove the chip in him. Willow, Giles and Xander are envoking a spell to give Buffy their essences. Adam has now got a machine gun arm???? this is just getting wielded and weirder. Composite Buffy defeats Adam and everything is happy again. Oh wait there was the little matter of Spike to deal with. So the suits in Washington are giving the tale of the tape and terminates the project and we will never ever hear from it again. (Thankfully!)

THAT WAS CRAP!!!!!! Thankfully there is a prolog to save this season. I'll have to get to that tomorrow as this double episode fried my brain!!!!!

3/10
