BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER

Season 2

Ep 12 - Bad Eggs

Something is gonna happen in the mall, isnt it?

Welp. There you go I was spot on. The cowboy hat guy is supernatural. A vampire.

Yes, buffy save the poor girl.

Buffy always has something smartass remark before she kills a vampire. Everytime.

Xander and Cordelia. Kissing in the closet. Still hating each other. Still fighting, saying they dont need this but they can't stay away from each other so in reality, they in fact, need this. Back to snogging I guess.

Lmao, so they are having a sex banter in the classroom. What a foreplay. The sex is gonna be bed breaking.

Taking care of the baby (egg), the classic.

They massacred a village before they became a vampire!!? Buffy do not underestimate them.

"please, like angel and I are helpless slaves to passion, grow up", also buffy passionately makes out with angel on her job, doing absolutely no hunting.

Buffy girl do some hunting and slaying, they're literally sitting on the tree.

What's up with the egg?? What's in it?

Bitch, whatever it's ugly and creepy. Also, Buffy is in danger.

What's with this two killer vampires? They're weird.

What did that egg do to her!? She's fine(I mean not really) but what it did to her?

She's talking funny. Oh, it's both willow and buffy. So probably everyone.

Xander and Cordelia and they know just one word now, closet. Say closet and they're gone.

And its bangel make-out session again.

Ohhhh, its getting awkward and having hard talks. Babies, future. Damn you two poor stars crossed lovers.

Damn buffy. I love the passionate confession and It's lovely and sad but you can't have a life with angel.

It's either Cordelia and xander or a dead body or our security is gonna die.

Yup. Security just died. It's the professor isn't it?

Holy mother of God, the egg broke, in front of buffy and wtf was that? What the hell is that ugly spider thingy?

Yuck, she just killed it and yup, she just killed it.

Nah willow, check your egg. You're not safe, Oh fuck, too late for that. What did the egg do to willow!?

Joyce I get you but your daughter is the chosen one so get a life.

Cordelia just shut up.

Oh so xander got saved because he boiled it.

Oh no not everyone's egg. Xander is also yuck. It's everyone's egg.

Oh, so it's both Cordelia and willow and the rest of the school. Welp, it's a war from insects or whatever tf it's called.

Giles is also fine, right? Oh no he isnt. And neither is joyce anymore. Fuck! It's everyone now.

Oh thank God, buffy and xander are fine. Now go save everyone.

What exactly are these demon children building or well they're not building, they're collecting the eggs and setting their mummy free.

It's time to behave like them. Move like a zombie them. Blend in. Yes, go xander became one of them.

Oh cmon not the right time cowboy vampires, either help her or get the hell out.

Who made Willow the leader of mummy land.

Help buffy you freaky vampires.

YUCKS! WHAT KIND OF CREATURE IS THIS? GIRL RUN!

OH FUCK NOOOOOOO! DID THE MUMMY JUST TOOK BUFFY WITH HER?

Or wait did buffy killed the main mummy? You, she did. Good job slayer.

Joyce, there was a gas leak, ffs, give her a break, why aren't you more worried?

Grounded or not, buffy will get her Angel fix of the day. Alright, girl, we get it, you're horny and in love and he's good.

Also, now I've a question, well lots of it. Who gave schools the eggs?? Like, where did the eggs come from, did the teacher just collected them from the basement because the school is a cheap ass hoe Or did someone deliberately delivered these eggs for this purpose, if yes, then who is it? Damn, how it really happened? Someone tell me.

Well, another day, another episode and again, I loved it. This was a less intense episode then the last one and not the main plot focused, nevertheless I enjoyed it.

We had a lot of bangel, well more like bangel make out sessions, also xander and cordelia's make out sessions. I think this is the episode with most make out and kissing yet in BTVS. Not much of willow, which was weird as she was also possessed.

The plot was cool, ofc couldn't predict it but still was surprise. Gotta say the killing of the mummy in the end was pretty anticlimactic, like that was too fast and easy. I get it that she's the slayer and all but still she just did it like nothing. Also, how did she kill it?

The massacre vampires were a useless addition, they brought nothing to episode and had no point of being there. What the hell was the point of them in this episode? I just kept thinking how would they tie to everything else and nothing, I thought they would help buffy in the end but nothing. Why exactly were they in there? Unless BTVS brings them(or well just him as one died) then I can see but other than that it was just useless.

Joyce is sometimes getting on my nerves. Like, a gas leak and her first thought would be if her daughter is okay, instead it's why weren't you where I told you to be? Like some concern would be good.

I guess that's it, loved the bangel in this episode, we finally have them. Xander and Cordelia are still happening. No spike or drusilla in this episode. No jenny either. No oz either.

Well, that's it, see ya in the next one, cheers 🥂

Dawn: It's here. Just like he said. Spike: (looking into the hole) Well, at least we know the old coot isn't completely daft. Look, you better let me snatch this egg thing on my own. Dawn: No way. I'm going. Spike: No ... you are not. I've got no idea what's down there. Dawn: You need me, Spike. Somebody's gotta get the egg while you distract the ghora. Now come on.

[ofstormsandwolves]

i’m starting to think s1 of btvs is my favourite season. i’ve just rewatched it and i’m kinda sad that i’m now a few eps into s2. i’ve started slowing down in my watching because i know i’m coming up to the angelus storyline and even though angelus as a character is pretty good, things just get so bad for buffy and i kinda can’t bear to watch it?? and i know i’ve talked before about not wanting to watch later s3 eps because of the buffy/faith rivalry.

i just feel like s1 is the least complicated in terms of what’s happening in the characters’ lives? yes, buffy is hiding being the slayer from joyce, but her relationship with giles, willow, and xander is relatively simple. they have yet to have any big arguments or problems arise, and i just love how uncomplicated it feels. s2 pushes buffy to the edge with the angelus stuff, as well as jenny dying separating her from giles. s3 has the rivalry with faith, as well as angel returning. s4 isn’t too bad, but the gang is definitely split as they go about their own lives more. s5 has joyce’s illness and death, s6 has buffy’s depression and self-destructive behaviour, and s7 once more pushes buffy to her edge and drives a wedge between her and the others.

s1 doesn’t do that- the scoobies are pretty tight in those first 12 eps, even with giles being as stuffy as he is. and it makes me sad it’s a half season because compared to everything that comes after it’s the only season where they feel relatively free and happy

Buffy: He was my first... I loved him, and then he... Mr. Platt: ...changed. She looks up at him, surprised again. Buffy: Yeah. Mr. Platt: He got mean. Buffy: Yes. Mr. Platt: And you didn't stop loving him. Buffy doesn't know what to add or how to respond. Mr. Platt: Look, lots of people lose themselves in love. It's, it's no shame. They write songs about it. The hitch is, you can't stay lost. Sooner or later, you... you have to get back to yourself. Buffy: (considers) And if you can't? Mr. Platt: If you can't... (inhales) Well, love becomes your master, and you're just its dog.

Larry: What? Talk louder dude. Xander: I'm just saying, it's gotta be frustrating, having the secret. You gotta be kinda filling up with resentment, unexpressed rage, just waiting to burst out. Today at lunch...? Larry: What secret? Being gay? Man, I'm out! I'm so out I got my grandma fixing me up with guys.

Angel: Buffy, you know, I'm still figuring things out. There's a lot I don't understand. But I do know it's important to keep fighting. I learned that from you. Buffy: But we never... Angel: We never win. Buffy: Not completely. Angel: We never will. That's not why we fight. We do it 'cause there's things worth fighting for.

BUFFY: "Where is Angel?" CORDELIA: (shrugs) "I've decided not to feel sorry for myself. I'm taking matters into my own hands, organizing a little 'going out of business' sale to subsidize the severance package Angel never bothered setting up for me." BUFFY: "Did he leave a message about where he went?" CORDELIA: "You know I'm in real pain here and all you can do is talk about Angel. Has it even occurred to you how this whole turning human thing might affect me?" BUFFY: "Regrettably - no."

ANGEL: Why is it like this? LORNE: Well, that's the age-old, bubby. I'll fire you off a postcard if I noodle an answer. ANGEL: Life should be beautiful and bright. But, no matter how hard I try, everything I touch - turns to ashes. LORNE: Well, there goes that encouraging hug I was planning. Snap to, buckaroo. The only one turning to ashes is that patricidal pup of yours. Hell, I'd take him out myself if I wasn't just a crappy hallucination.

FRED: I can't imagine what you've been through, Connor, being taken away by Holtz, raised in that place. It must have been horrible. I know you're still hurting but - I promise, it's not nearly as much as you're gonna hurt for what you did to your father. (Connor stops chewing and looks up at Fred, who pushes a tazer against his chest and fires.) FRED: You think that's what Angel felt? When you did it to him? Did he scream like you? CONNOR: Why are you doing this? GUNN: Nah-ah. Don't even try it. FRED: We got a call from an old friend tonight. GUNN: Been playing a little Ahab. He's out there right now puttering around on his boat. FRED: With Angel. GUNN: That's right, Sparky, Daddy's coming home. And I'm guessing there's going to be a spanking.

Cordelia: It was a nightmare, a total nightmare. Cordelia: I mean, they promised me they'd take me to St. Croix, and then they just decide to go to Tuscany. (exhales) Art and buildings? I was totally beachless for a month and a half. No one has suffered like I have. Of course I think that that kind of adversity builds character. Well, then I thought, I already have a lot of character. Is it possible to have too much character?

HARMONY: Come on. Girls don't care about stuff like that. Just one look at you, and she'll forget herself, and she'll get all tingly, and it won't matter how horribly you treated her in the past and how you took her for granted, and... SPIKE: I never took her for gr– Oh. I expect Buffy would be happy enough to see me. It's just, I gave up my life for her, the world, and if I show up now, flesh and bone, my grand finale won't hold much weight. All of it... won't matter. HARMONY: Yeah – not mattering. I know that feeling well. SPIKE: Oh, come on, Harm, you matter to someone. HARMONY: I do? SPIKE: Yeah. Girl tried to frame you, didn't she? Must have mattered to her. Everybody's talking about it. HARMONY: You're right. That girl hated me. She wanted me dead. I matter.
