Does she suddenly realize while lying in bed that Eve is going to die and that this was the real reason for the party? Or did she secretly know the truth all along?

* CommonKnowledge: Many people believe that "Ava" is Buffy's real first name, with "Buffy" being a nickname based on her presumed middle name, "Elizabeth." Even IMDB.com lists her full name as such. Actually, "Ava" was the name Buffy briefly considered changing hers to after making a new friend called Lana (not [[Music/RoyOrbison that one]]) in the season 3 episode "The Latch-Key Kid." It's likely that hazy memories of the episode (as ''Family Affair'' was not widely syndicated for a long time) turned into general public misremembering of "Ava" as Buffy's actual first name, and then that became CommonKnowledge in the era of the web.

Try not to cry when Cissy and Uncle Bill reassure her that one day she will grow up too.
