    This has always been in my top ten episodes on the strength of the class protector award alone. It's so gratifying to see Buffy get the recognition she deserves. I'm always glad to see a reactor cry as much as I do to this. Thank you and bless you for your tears.

    Xander paying off Cordy's dress makes me tear up too. And not telling anyone about her struggles. It's so genuinely sweet.
    ETA: oh yeah, and the award and Angel showing up in a tux. This episode, man

      Every time I committed to disliking him the writers would always turn around and have him say or do something so nice and I was straight back in to liking him again!

    I believe this is Sarah Michelle Gellar's favorite episode. She loved Buffy getting that true recognition from so many people she has saved. This show is so great at bringing back characters we weren't expecting to see again. Anya's sale's pitch for prom is GOLD. There are so many great moments in this episode: Willow comforting Buffy, Xander paying for the dress, Buffy getting some recognition. And one of my favs: Giles being sympathetic to Buffy when she tells him Angel is leaving, despite how hard it must be for Giles to have Angel around. I love how he inquires if this is a situation where ice cream is warranted.

      @@GeorgeAlexander3110 make sure you do! The sensitive way reactors like you approach these makes them so great to watch - but it's also important to take care of yourself when the next several tear-jerker moments happen.

    It's great to see that this is what other students thought of her and they made a point to acknowledge her by adding that extra category.

    You must think i'm a sadist with how much i tell you that I'm laughing at your crying, BUT you crying whilst the chipmunk's version of White Horses is playing gave me a chuckle.
    This is a top tier episode, the umbrella is a perfect metaphor for Buffy, she protects everyone from the storm that is the hellmouth.

    Some very funny comedy moments in this episode especially when Xander says to Anya when the says she hasn't got a date for Prom and he says ' it must be your sales pitch ' Xander shows he still cares for Cordelia by paying for her dress. The interaction with Joyce and Angel is very interesting and Angel knows deep down she's right. Overall the story of the episode is pretty average, only saved by Buffy's award at The Prom at the end. The Oscar's type feel to the presentation is so well done. SMG said this was her favourite scene from the whole show. The last two episodes season finale are something else!

    Buffy runs a sword through Angel gets kicked out of her house by her mom kicked out of school by her principal. Now Buffy gets an award and you cry harder than you did then, you're a sucker for appreciation.

    Fun fact the scene where Buffy and Angel break up smg was so heartbroken and was actually crying the had to stop producing for 10 minutes and her and David just held each other. I think this is a known thing but smg is the biggest Buffy/Angel shipper out there lol so the scenes she with him being emotional are so good because there really isn’t any acting there😭

    There’s something about That Scene in the sewer about which I have Thoughts™. You hit the nail on the head: Buffy’s still a girl (granted, a strong, responsible vampire-fight in’ girl, but still). When Angel does his break-up speech, I’d assume her teen emotions kick into overdrive. Here’s how I read the next bit: she tells Angel she “wants to treat of her life to be with him” and, with the neurochemical equivalent of a small nuke going off in her head, when he answers “I don’t”, what she hears right then is “I don’t want to be with you” when, what he actually said was “I don’t want the rest of your life to be with me”. Which, sure, means the same thing in terms of their lives, but it is subtly different.

    You reacted just like millions before you. Don’t think you are over sensitive, it’s this show. There is no way to explain how this little supernatural show with a hero named Buffy! Can make so many different people , from different countries, and different cultures react the same way. I can talk with any Buffy fan, never talked before or know them well, and just ask… The Prom. That’s all and.. first their face changes, a simple smile, their head slightly goes back, and their eyes look up seeing a memory. The voice I hear is happy, bittersweet, melancholy, and wrapped with personal memories. That’s The Prom. The plot development, the stories of Cordey and Anya, the breakup…. all would easily be the point that sticks but NO. A simple little speech by Jonathan ( of all people) and a silly umbrella ☂️ becomes one of the most cherished moments that happens in 144 episodes. BTVS can be hard, difficult, and thought provoking/ Its never thought of being a sentimental show yet from when Jonathan says, we have another award until Buffy snuggles in for her dance while we hear Wild Horses… it’s the most authentically beautiful sentimental moment I have ever watched on television. Thank you for sharing your reaction
