Spoiler Zone Wendy's updates
March 21. 2003


I have episode 21 information that will undoubtedly be volatile among Buffy fans, particularly the shipper communities. Please keep in mind that we do not have information on episode 20 yet, other than what we can surmise from the episode 21 information. Also, this information is subject to change.

Episode 21 begins in a sewer with a bomb about to go off as Faith and several Potentials, including Kennedy, are nearby. The bomb goes off as everyone dives for cover. Elsewhere, Buffy easily removes a Scythe from a rock as Caleb watches. He wants her to give it to him, but she won't. The First appears in Buffy's form to Caleb and tells him to let Buffy go; they'll get the Scythe later when her back is turned. Willow, Xander, Anya and Dawn return to the Summers home having failed to find Buffy. At the site of the bomb blast, Faith is unconscious and various other Potentials are dead and injured. The Potentials (carrying Faith) flee two Ubervamps coming after them. The Ubervamps have the Potentials cornered when Buffy arrives and dispatches them with the Scythe. The Potentials are in awe of Buffy.

Everyone, including Buffy, returns to the Summers home. We learn that the bomb in the sewer was a trap. Buffy starts to take charge again. Later, she asks Xander to do something for her. Xander doesn't seem happy about it because he wanted to be with her at the end. Buffy says she is counting on him. Willow and Giles are trying to do research on the Scythe. Giles wants Willow to draw power from the Scythe, but Willow is afraid of losing control again. Xander is in the car with Dawn and they talk. Suddenly, he puts a handkerchief over her mouth--he's drugged her so she's unconscious. The First and Caleb merge so that Caleb can be strong again.

Faith and Buffy talk about the scythe and how to be a Slayer is to be alone because they can't share the burden. As Buffy goes downstairs, she runs into Spike coming in the front door. She is unsure how to act because of the night before. She shows him the Scythe. Spike says it's the kind of thing a girl ditches a guy for. Buffy apologizes. Spike says it's ok, "last night was ... just a little cold comfort from the cellar dweller--let's don't make a thing of it." Buffy says fine, she has work to do. As they walk away from each other, Buffy turns back and tells him he's a dope. She tells him that "the reason I'm holding [the Scythe] is 'cause of you. Because of last night, the strength you gave me." She doesn't know how he feels about last night but ... Spike says he is terrified. He tells her it was the "best night of [his] life":

"I've lived for sodding ever, Buffy. I've done everything--I've done things with you I can't SPELL, but I've never...been close. To anyone, least of all you...Until last night. All I did was hold you, and watch you sleep, and it was the best night of my life. So I'm, yeah. Terrified."

She says he doesn't have to be terrified. He asks if she was there with him, and she says she was. When he asks her what it means, she wonders if it has to mean something. That breaks the feeling of closeness between them, and he withdraws a bit. She says "Maybe, when --," but he wants to just leave it. He says they'll go be heroes, then leaves as she watches him go.

Andrew and Anya have gone to the hospital to get supplies, and they talk about whether they will survive. Buffy goes to a cemetery and finds a tomb in which she finds an older woman, dressed in white. She's been waiting for someone to get the Scythe, which was made secretly without the knowledge of the Shadow Men. She tells Buffy to use the Scythe wisely to fight evil. Caleb shows up and snaps the woman's neck.

Xander gives Dawn a letter from Buffy, telling her that Buffy wanted to send her away to protect her. Dawn uses a stun gun on Xander and turns the car back around to Sunnydale. Buffy fights Caleb, and Angel shows up to help. "Heard maybe you needed a hand," he says. Buffy fights Caleb some more. After, Angel asks her to tell him she's glad to see him. She hugs him, then they kiss, tenderly at first, then a real kiss. As they kiss, we see that Spike is watching, the First-as-Buffy next to him. The First says judgmentally , "That bitch," and the last shot of the episode is Spike's pained face.

Eonline Chat Kristin's Chat - Finale & Spinoff News
March 5, 2003


Kristin from Eonline had David Boreanaz and Charisma Carpenter on during her weekly chat. Here's some excerpts: From Tonoreasa: Is there a chance you will be in any future episode of Buffy? David: Yes, I will definitely make an appearance on the finale. I think you owe that to the fans. I think it's my responsibility.


From poupa: Will the whole Fang Gang appear in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer finale? Is there any chance for a Buffy and Angel reunion? David: I don't know. I honestly don't know. I'm just as clueless as you guys are. I just know it's going to be big.


From Samantha: Are you going to come back to the final Buffy episode like the others? Charisma: I have not been asked; probably not. Kristin didn't include this on the transcript, but she was asked about a Willow spinoff during the chat: slayerfan23 asks: Um have you heard Willow may get a spinoff? Kristin replies: I have heard that producers are very interested in doing one, but that Alyson is ready to move on. Tragic, no?

Spoiler Slayer

Possible title end of days

A bit of casting news was posted at FilmJerk.com, featuring a character who will appear in Episode 21. -----


Her name is Dora Bates. She is an American caucasian in her fifties, and a well-preserved lady of stature. A `Mrs. Havisham' type who has been waiting in a secret crypt for some time for Buffy to show up in the currently-untitled Episode 21. Dora is there to explain the history of the scythe's power, forged by women for The Slayer's use.


In casting notices obtained by Filmjerk.com, Dora is described as "Anjelica Huston, Joan Allen or Fionula Flanagan, without the accent." We at Filmjerk ask why go for an Angelika Huston or Joan Allen type, when you can probably get Angelika Huston or Joan Allen themselves, especially since this character is only going to shooting on set for one day.


Update to this news story : We've gotten some e-mails concerning the production date, as they are currently filming Episode 19. We hurriedly called our scooper on this. In his reply, he said he's not sure what the discrepancy is here, but since this is only one scene, he believes that it is conceivable they could shoot this scene separately before the episode, for scheduling purposes. -----


Interesting little tidbit, which obviously pointing to Buffy needing a weapon of great power to either defeat Caleb or the First. Which makes me wonder if we're looking at one of those "We need to make the Big Bad corporeal in order to use the fancy weapon and defeat it". And, since Evil cannot be truly defeated, my money says that the weapon will be used to bind The First to the Hellmouth. Hmm, Big Bad stuck in the Hellmouth like a cork in a bottle...


Can you say full circle?

Possible title Empty places

aphrodite-in-nyc has posted a summary for Episode 19 on TWoP: EPISODE #19: "EMPTY PLACES" - Opens with Buffy wandering around Sunnydale and running into Clem, who is fleeing town in a new car. They have small talk banter, with Clem acknowledging that the situation is bad, getting worse, and she should get out of town. Of course, Buffy is staying, but Clem drives off..... It is confirmed that Xander has lost an eye (very sad, he is being brave and making pirate jokes but it is obvious how torn up everyone is). Giles is in this episode. Everyone in heavy research mode -- Anya has chatted up her remaining demon buddies and has found out that the ubervamps can be staked (although their skin is extra tough) but holy water does nothing. SITs bitter and scared of Caleb. Buffy is taking the whole thing with Xander, and her feelings of failure from not protecting him and the SITs in the last episode very much to heart. Dawn, Willow and Buffy decide to research Caleb -- see if they can find any info about him in police records and files via the internet. While this is going on Buffy goes back to the school (which is now closed) to get her things; while cleaning out her desk she sees a photo of her, Willow and Xander together. She breaks down crying and when she looks up -- Caleb is there. Dawn & co find some info on Caleb's symbol -- that it is on the wall at some abandoned mission. Giles sends Spike to go investigate, saying they need someone strong in case there is danger there; Spike notes that the last "mission" Giles sent him on was a trick to get Spike killed. Andrew is being annoying (very funny stuff with Faith) so Giles tells Spike to take Andrew with him. Meanwhile, Buffy and Caleb fight again and he knocks her unconscious.

after Caleb knocks Buffy out, he goes back to the vinyard and Buffy/The First asks him how it went. Caleb says everything is ready, and they cackle evilly. Sort of. They say that now she will go back to the SITs and all they have to do is give her one more little push. Spike and Andrew go off to the mission (very funny -- they bond over their mutual love of the flowering onion thing) -- while there they find the one survivor of the monks (?) who lived there. Like the girl that Caleb attacked last episode, he has a scar from Caleb's ring. He tells them that they took in a stranger (I assume Caleb) who found some sort of seal in the basement that they didn't know was there; they check out the seal and Andrew reads it. Basically it says that "it" is for her alone. Buffy has gone back to the house; while she was unconscious Faith decided to take the depressed SITs dancing at the Bronze. Giles tells her that Spike is off on a mission, which she is not happy about -- and then she goes off in search of the SITs.


Faith and the SITs are having a great time at the Bronze, when a bunch of police arrive to haul off Faith. It appears that SOMETHING is going on with the Police, as they have ducttaped over their badges and are essentially acting as a hit squad. They haul Faith outside and basically try to kill her -- the SITs try to help and then Buffy shows up. However, I don't think Buffy gets that the police are possessed; instead, she gives Faith a big lecture about keeping the SITs safe and so on. Faith says -- why weren't you concerned about keeping them safe when you took them to the wine cellar? Buffy hits her -- Faith just takes it. Everyone goes home (I am not doing this quite in time -- sorry -- in this part Andrew and Spike are still at the mission) and has a big welcome for Xander when he arrives back from the hospital. Everyone is glad to see everyone and then Buffy comes down and says she has been thinking about why the First isn't down protecting the seal in the basement of the school. She says that she has figured out that they are at the vinyard because there is something there that has to be protected -- so they should all go now to investigate. EVERYONE says no. Giles says she isn't thinking clearly; Dawn says no, Rona says she is being reckless, Faith says she doesn't want to face that kind of danger again on a hunch of Buffy's, Willow tells everyone to lay off Buffy since she is under a lot of stress -- but no one backs her plan.


Okay, so everyone tells Buffy they aren't going with her. She and Giles start bickering -- he says she can't just do everything alone -- people get hurt -- like Jenny. She brings up what he did to Spike, and Ben. Xander says he isn't going either -- he has sacrificed enough. Buffy says she is in charge because she is the SLAYER. Someone says - well, isn't Faith a Slayer too?? Faith is all like -- hold on -- no -- I don't want to lead anyone. Everyone decides they will follow Faith and not Buffy; Buffy is shocked -- she can't just sit back and watch everything go to hell and she doesn't think Faith can handle it. Dawn tells Buffy to leave the house if she can't go along, cause Faith is now in charge. Buffy looks around for support, but no one backs down. Buffy leaves the house. That's it guys. My take is that this has all been part of the First's plan -- that somehow the final apocalypse has to be brought about BY the Salyer, and in order to get her to the point where she can be manipulated to help it had to destroy her support group. Sort of.






Possible Episode 19 Spoilers March 6, 2003 Actor posted on SMGfan's forum about Episode 19: Heard the episode title was "Empty Spaces." Think it's 19 or 20, cuz the crew was sayin "3 more episodes." Anyways, we filmed a couple scenes in The Bronze. Basically, Faith takes Dawn and the potentials to The Bronze for some fun. Cops bust in and arrest her for some reason. They haul her out as the potentials follow, and apparently at one point, one of the cops shoots a chandelier down and we all react with fear, hehe. The potentials go out and fight the cops. Unfortunately, Buffy wasn't in the scenes, so I didn't get to see Sarah But I did get to see Faith (so beautiful), Dawn, Kennedy, Rona, Amanda, and Chao-Ahn (funny to hear her speak perfect English in person when her character doesn't, hehe)


Eliza Dushku introduced herself to everyone and shook their hands. She was really cool. The actresses who play the potentials were hangin out the whole time and talkin with people. They seemed pretty close-knit and friendly. I was disappointed because Eliza was dancing with like 4 guys at once, I know that in one scene, Amanda's sittin down with a drink, bein dorky, telling Faith how cool The Bronze is and how Buffy would never take them there. Me and a couple of girls walk past Amanda and she tries to tell us how cool Faith is but we just ignore her and walk right past her. Then Faith asks Amanda her age and when Amanda tells her she's only 17, Faith takes her drink away and says "We need to get you a 7-up."

Jan 31 2003:

This is the latest from the SpoilerSlayer

Episode 17 This is the latest from the SpoilerSlayer

vampire hunting, in search of Spike, the vampire who killed his mother (revealed two episodes before this). You might remember her. Nikki, the Foxy Brown-looking Slayer from the East Village that Spike took out in episode 5.7, "Fool For Love." As Wood hunts for Spike, he flashes back to 1977. He remembers a time when he was four years old, hiding behind a park bench in Central Park, watching with wide eyes as his mother fights to a truce against Spike. As the episode progresses, Wood will continue to go back to his childhood and remember his mother.


Wood is not the only one doing some reminiscing. The hunted, Spike, also flashes back to an earlier time with his mother, Constance. Seen in 1880, Constance is a frail, sickly woman in her 50s with a kind and gentle spirit, who dotes on her son's lame poetry and showers him with her loving pride. It is during this time that Drusilla turned Spike into a vampire, although it's not yet clear if we will see a repeat of this part of his history in this flashback. One of the first actions Spike takes after his transformation is to give his mother eternal life as well, but he only succeeds in transforming her into a monster. Unwilling to lead a vampire's life, Constance denounces Spike, forcing him to combat. Spike kills his mother, but just before she dies, Constance reverts back to the kind and gentle woman she was – then explodes into dust.
