to:

* IconicItem: Spike throws on his BadassLongcoat in a HesBack moment. This, of course, will [[Recap/BuffyTheVampireSlayerS7E17LiesMyParentsToldMe ultimately backfire]] (as Robin Wood will recognize it as his deceased mother's coat and thus realize Spike is the vampire that killed Nikki Wood).


Added DiffLines:

** Spike breaking his coat out of storage for the first time since late Season Six. This will backfire come [[Recap/BuffyTheVampireSlayerS7E17LiesMyParentsToldMe "Lies My Parents Told Me"]], as it allows Robin to realize Spike is the vampire that killed his mother and 1970s-era Slayer Nikki Wood.

* MagicalNegro: The Shadow Men have shades of this. To be fair, though, since this takes place in the beginnings of the modern human race, which originated in Africa, there wasn't any other way. Literally everyone was black. And they are not precisely pure-hearted, what with pretty much creating the First Slayer through what tantamounts as rape.

* {{Hypocrite}}: Kennedy arrogantly shoots down Spike after he says he is going after the demon, claiming that the Potentials would do better because they were trained. Kennedy did even ''less'' well against the demon than Spike and she is the best trained of the Potentials. When Buffy bad-mouths Chloe, Kennedy calls her out of line...except it was her actions that indirectly led to her suicide.

* WrongGenreSavvy: Kennedy clearly thinks she's in ''Film/FullMetalJacket.'' A little research into the film would reveal it was addressing her [[DrillSergeantNasty approach]] as the wrong one.

* NotSoDifferent: The revelation that her Slayer power is of demonic origin [[FridgeBrilliance explains a lot about Buffy's long-standing attraction]] to the DarkSide -- her vampire boyfriends, the enjoyment she gets from inflicting violence, and her lack of guilt over being what is essentially a [[JudgeJuryAndExecutioner vigilante killer]].
