    Pat seems to be the only one who gets Faith's relationship with the Mayor-she views him more as a surrogate father; not too different than how Buffy sees Giles. Grooming would imply something sexual which the Mayor was quick to shoot her down when she made the sugar daddy comment. The only thing that makes it kinda creepy is how the Mayor sometimes talks to Faith like she's five years old.
    UPDATE: The word groom has such negative connotations now but (as others have pointed out) the other definition applies as well. Sorry I meant to phrase it differently. Just based on some of their reaction they seam to have referred to it in the sexual meaning.

      "Grooming" has taken on an almost universal sexual context in the last decade or so but its meaning was a lot wider at this given time. Wilkins is grooming her...to be his successor. There's pretty obviously no sexual intent on his part. She already tried a half assed pass at him and he shot her down.

      The Mayor’s wife actually died at a very old age after he “sold his soul” to keep himself young & healthy. His wife resented him because he never aged, while she grew older or ill throughout the years. That’s why the Mayor feels superior to humans and seeks immortality. I think his affection towards Faith comes from the fact that slayers age slower than normal humans, they’re physically stronger than humans and they heal very fast. So the mayor sees slayers as superior to normal humans.

  • @MyFeuerFrey
    @MyFeuerFrey Год назад +28

    For Buffy killing a human is a line she does not want to cross because it ruins the idea of what a Slayer is for her. The way she copes with how much the weight of the world on her shoulders have damaged her life is by essentially glorifying the Chosen One into basically a super hero position. Superheroes are always good and true to themselves and morally right and don't ever deal with the muddy gray morality of the world. It's okay if her parents have decided to divorce, it's okay if she had to change schools and feels alone - because she's a superhero or something and what she does matters. To accept that she's CAPABLE of just taking a life is to accept that Faith is not that different from her herself and that shatters her whole worldview so she wants to reject Faith and prove her wrong.
    Faith is the inverse on that - she's avoiding dealing with guilt of taking a life by fully embracing the idea of being evil. After all if she's evil all along she would not need to care about what happened. Someone like Buffy existing decimates that worldview so she wants to prove Buffy wrong. It's kind of weird that they kind of missed entirety of Faith's character arc considering the show ain't exactly being subtle about her being conflicted and traumatized.
    That creates a dynamic of Buffy and Faith both trying their hardest to deny each other and that they are very similar but simply made slightly different decisions. Both are running away from their problems.
    For Faith - Buffy killing her IS a win. She proves her wrong and she does not have to deal with her issues or trauma.
    Both are essentially trying their hardest to avoid the realization that the world is not black and white and that people can make mistakes and end up on opposite sides based on nothing but circumstance.
    After all, realization that morality is a scale and the world and decision making is a lot more murky than deciding between good and bad is part of adolescence. It's part of graduating from your childhood and onto your way into adulthood.

Also loved Willows cheerful trading of yearbook autographs with Harmony even though there was a history of torment between them.

    Rana making the realization that until this episode Faith hadn't committed murder was great.
    The Mayor already told Faith he didn't find it amusing when she assumed he was attempting to be her sugar daddy for giving her her new place to live. The Normies don't seem to understand that.
    Snyder was sus, but being afraid of The Mayor doesn't mean The Mayor isn't forcing him to put on that everything is great attitude. That is what makes The Mayor such a great villain. The power he has and he plays like everything is normal life until he can't (two episodes ago with the box) or doesn't need to (the upcoming ascension).
    *Willow with Anya:* How come evil girl's in the mix.
    *Willow with Jenny calendar:* Who let her into the group.
    It doesn't matter if your part of the group or not. The core four are the only real members of the group. Even The Normies notice Oz is in the background doing very little in most episodes.
    The Mayor in the library worked as such a comedic and tension building scene.
    The Normies were missing the point on whether Buffy should kill Faith or not. Buffy bringing Faith's knife to fight her makes no sense. If going after Faith was about helping Angel, taking a knife is not a good idea because stabbing Faith depleted the blood supply Angel needs to be cured. Faith would have little of it by the time Buffy got her back to Angel. Buffy wanted revenge, plain and simple. It wasn't about helping him, even if she had convinced herself it was. And Faith calls Buffy on it ("Still not gonna help your boy, though") as well as it now being at her level ("Ya did it. Ya killed me). It doesn't matter that it changes her. What matters is that she was willing to go there with purposed revenge. I agree with Faith in that regard, and I think Buffy makes the same realization the second she stabs Faith. The look on her face afterword shows that realization.

    God, I can't believe we've nearly finished the season. What a ride. To this day my favourite season. This episode is so good.
    A few points:
    -"don't kill humans" is arguably the core of Buffy's moral compass. She knew Faith was willing and able to murder innocent people and still didn't go for the ultimate punishment until she was pushed into a scenario where there was no other option. There's an argument to be made that, as a Slayer, she has the capacity for a love of violence, but she also recognises that she can't let herself ever get to that stage, so she has a code she follows to prevent it. Faith pushed her hard enough to make her bend that code, but it took a lot to get there. It also demonstrates Faith's position as a character - she is what Buffy could become if she allowed herself to, and if she didn't have the people in her life to keep her grounded. As always, the defining characteristic that makes Buffy special is her connection to the people around her. Faith lacked that connection until she fell in with the Mayor, so winds up the way she does.
    -Mayor Wilkins is still, for me, the greatest Buffy villain. He's so evil, but so personal, and what's more he's not a monster of some kind, he's a human whose ambition drives him to act monstrously. But at the same time he remains very relatable. The core concept for his character is "what if Mister Rogers was evil", and it's both written and played brilliantly. There's more to say on this, but it needs to wait for Part 2.
    -Finally we see the show go to the wall on the Watcher's Council - they suck and are useless at best, an active obstruction at worst. Wesley doesn't quite manage to represent the Council at its absolute worst, but he's totally blind to its failings. Great decision to have Buffy set herself apart from them as part of her character growth as she leaves high school. She doesn't need them and they are irrelevant - Giles is what he is because of his love for Buffy, not because of his role. Again, great moment.
    -It's funny that Angel leaves the show just as the writers figure out how to make him compelling as a character even when he has a soul. His spin-off is honestly great, if very uneven, because it can explore him in a lot more depth. Ultimately his best features as a character are, funnily enough, shared with...
    -Anya, who is fantastic. She and Angel both have a lot of experience, but not a lot of maturity. It's also just occurred to me that Anya brings out the best in Xander precisely because of her immaturity. Because Xander is insecure, even though he is attracted to powerful women, they bring out his worst qualities. When confronted with someone who he can mentor, he becomes a much, much better person. She's also hilarious, both because of great writing and because Anna, whose name is actually Emma Caulfield is an elite performer.
    Can't wait for the season finale.

    "Grooming" used to have a good, wholesome definition, like the owner of a business grooming his son to take over for him when he retires, or local law enforcement taking "street tough" juvenile delinquents and grooming them into good, acceptable members of society. But then America saw that a bunch of kids were super cool with sexually degenerate behavior and getting involved in shady, and actual sexual relationships with adults, and instead of using words like "brainwashing" and "mind control" to explain what was happening to the kids, they took a word that defines what adults SHOULD be doing with kids, and started using it to define what Adults SHOULD NOT be doing with kids.
    And the worst part is no one bothered to replace it with a word that can be used with its original definition so that the original idea of "Grooming" does not pass from the "Collective Consciousness." Because we all like to accentuate the negative Too Damn Much.

    UC Sunnydale isn't Stanford, but it is among the top West Coast Universities, ranking just below the Ivy League on the other coast. So it's not such a huge step down for Willow to go there instead of Harvard (or even Oxford).
    No-one ever knew the real name of the Inca Mummy Girl, but she took the name of the exchange student she killed, Ampata.
    The most common letters in English are ETAON some people put 'R' next, others say it goes ISHRDLU. I don't know it any further.
    Anya's power worked through the pendant. She had been a demon for a long time, but without the pendant she is just a human girl and is finding it difficult to adjust.

      He at this point is a de facto member of the gang and actually wants to help..it’s the council that refuses, Wesley still feels loyal to the council, but, Buffy forces him to realize his own situation and helps him for his future arc..we don’t see this immediately, but in the next episode you’ll see a glimmer of it..

    Buffy attacking Faith had less to do with her "going evil" and more so to do with killing the last of her innocence. Buffy has always been an allegory for the horrors of high school and being a teen. The end of this seasons sees them graduating from teens to adults. Part of the storyline for Buffy was stripping away from her some of the more innocent parts of her personality and making her more grown up. Having her make more adult decisions. It started when she lost her virginity to Angel and culminated with her stabbing Faith. Buffy knew after the events of season two that she would have to start growing up but was resistant to it at every turn. Which is part of why she never told anyone that Angel had returned, but also one of the reasons she clinged to Faith so much. Faith represented a wild, carefree apparently innocent attitude and Buffy clung to it. That was until Faith killed the Mayor's assistant. Then things took a real turn. The events that followed and Faith's turned to the darkside dropped the innocent veneer from Buffy's eyes. She began to see the world as a much more real, darker place. Its the reason her relationship with Angel falls apart. She sees it with more adult eyes and realizes that its not sustainable. She tries to deny it at every turn, but it becomes very apparent to her that there's no future in it. The last bit of innocence Buffy had was she was always reluctant to do what was absolutely necessary to save the one's she loves. Stabbing Faith proved that if she had to, she would kill an evil person if it meant saving her friends or saving the world. It was the last bit of her veneer. Going forward she isn't going to be evil. But there is going to be a more grey morality that will be interesting to see unfold.

    So, with respects to Buffy stabbing Faith. Go to the season 2 episode called Ted. Watch Buffy's face when she realizes she killed Ted and compare it to her face just after stabbing Faith. It's the same face.
    I say all the time that Ted was one of the most important episodes of the whole show, as it does so much of the heavy lifting with respects the universe building, especially slayer lore building.
    One of the key components of that episode was, while the season one episode Angel showed us that a slayer is a judge of the underworld, Ted showed his that she has no authority over humans.
    Buffy trying to kill Faith had nothing to do with being the slayer, nothing to do with judging Faith worthy of death, and everything to do with revenge. Xander of all people tried to warn her. As much as the fans like to debate whether they approve of the move or not, go back and look at her face and you will see Buffy woke up in that moment and regretted it.
    The slayer isn't a killer of humans. She escaped the crushing weight of killing a human in Ted, but she can't escape the consequences of what she did to Faith here. Especially as it wasn't an accident.
    I know, long winded right. Still, I mainly like to point this out to show how layered and character driven the show is. The intentionally made the issues in Ted to later support the greater dilemmas they would face Buffy with in episodes like this. It also was the supporting episode when Faith accidentally killed a human. It has aspects that directly affect quite a number of episodes all the way through to the end of the show.
    It's one of the reasons why this show can actually be better on the 2nd time through, as you pick up on all the details they laid down early on that you miss. As much controversy surrounds the creator of the show, he planned a lot of things so far in advance and put foreshadowing in all over the place.

    Graduation Day part 1 was another brilliant episode with the Buffy and Faith fight a super climax. We can see Faith out of control committing cold blooded murder of the Professor. We now know where Faith's knife ended up with Buffy giving it back to Faith in her gut. All this leads up to the brilliant part 2. S3 was where the show really developed into a stellar series. Interesting part where Xander pays homage to Jaws ' we are gonna need a bigger boat'. This was a brilliant Season. Enjoy part 2!
