History Recap / BuffyTheVampireSlayerS7E13TheKillerInMe

* GenreSavvy: Andrew doesn't want to be left alone in the house as something bad will happen to him.

-->'''Giles:''' Do you think they appreciate the gravity of what we're undertaking? It's frightening, and it's difficult. And then, apparently, someone told them that the vision quest consists of me driving them to the desert, doing the hokey pokey until a spooky Rasta-mama Slayer arrives and speaks to them in riddles. (looks at Buffy)
-->'''Buffy:''' That's not exactly how I put it...

* {{Foreshadowing}}: Amy says of Kennedy how Willow had found herself a big Potential Slayer bodyguard. [[TeensAreShort Big aside,]] she's now gone all Blackwater personal protection.

** An instant of happiness makes Willow forget her guilt, leading to her transforming into someone evil. Fortunately she got over it quicker than Angel/Angelus did.

* SpotOfTea / BookEnds: Willow brings tea for a 'sick' Kennedy, [[SheIsNotMyGirlfriend despite Buffy's teasing]]. The episode ends with Kennedy offering to make tea for Weary!Willow.

** An instant of happiness makes Willow forget her guilt, leading to her transforming into someone evil. Fortunately SheGotBetter quicker than Angel/Angelus did.

* CharacterTics: Warren has a distinctive downward chopping gesture that he makes with both hands when he's annoyed. This is used for a meaningful moment when Willow is being taken over by him.

* [[spoiler:RedHerringMole / FauxShadow: Giles was never the First.]]

* KarmaHoudini: Last appearance of Amy, though [[spoiler: she returns as a villain in the Season 8 comics.]]

* KarmaHoudini: Last appearance of Amy, though she returns as a villain in the Season 8 comics.

** Willow!Warren reenacts the shooting of Buffy and Tara in the garden of Buffy's home ("Seeing Red").

--> '''Buffy:''' Doubt it.
* WoundedGazelleGambit: Kennedy pretends to be sick so she can stay back and have some private time with Willow.

* PlayingSick: Kennedy

* FlirtingAndCourtship: Kennedy describing the art of lesbian dating to Willow reaches the level of AudioErotica.

* [[spoiler:RedHerringMole: Giles was never the First.]]

* MagicKiss / LoveRedeems: Lampshaded by Kennedy when she says she has the whole magic thing figured out. "It's like fairy tales." She then kisses Willow a second time to reverse the spell.

* FlirtingAndCourtship: Kennedy filling Willow in on the lesbian dating scene reaches the level of AudioErotica.

* CallBack

** [[TheScrappy Kennedy]] haters complained about her dodging her training to go on a date with Willow, but it's hardly different from the stunts Buffy would pull with Giles in the first few seasons.

* CallBack: Riley Finn leaves the decision-making re Spike to Buffy, as he did in "As You Were" when he'd been given permission to kill Spike for selling demon eggs but (realising Buffy was now in a relationship with him) refused to unless she agreed.

* ButLiquorIsQuicker: Kennedy telling Willow how she intends to seduce her.
--> "It's like flirting in code, it's using body language, and laughing at the right jokes. And [[HeldGaze looking into her eyes and knowing she's still whispering to you, even though she's not saying a word]]. And that sense that if you can just touch her, just once, everything will be okay. For both of you... [suddenly flippant] Or, if she's really hot, you get her drunk and see if she comes on to you."
