* EconomyCast: Drew Z. Greenberg and David Solomon say in their DVDCommentary that the reason there are no potential Slayers (apart from Kennedy) in the episode is because their budget wouldn’t stretch to allow for the extra actors.

* JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope: Even given Amy's descent into reckless magic use and enabling Willow's addiction last season, her sudden appearance as a mustache-twirling villain--basically just to cause the [[MonsterOfTheWeek Magical Drama of The Week]--seems like quite a leap.

The Watcher Robson calls the Summers' residence and informs the gang about Giles's seemingly fatal encounter with the Bringers and an ax, mentioning that he blacked out just as the Bringer was about to swing and by the time he woke up Giles was gone. This gives the gang concern, since Giles never mentioned this to any of them start to question whether Giles survived that encounter or not, as if he died then the First may have taken his form to infiltrate Buffy's inner circle. Andrew mentions that the First is incorporeal so they'd know it was really Giles if any of them have touched him... but no one can recall actually doing so. and worry when none of them can remember a time when Giles actually touched someone. Xander, Anya, Dawn, and Andrew quickly rush to the desert knowing that if Giles is really the First then he has successfully isolated all the potentials. They discover when they are able to touch him that it is really Giles leaving him annoyed with them.

* MagicKiss: Lampshaded when Willow is turned into Warren. At the end of the episode Kennedy works out how to reverse the spell.


Added DiffLines:

* StealthPun: True Love's Kiss "played straight." Amy's hex was turning Willow into Warren, so Kennedy had to kiss a boy to get her girlfriend back.

* {{Corpsing}}: Near the end of the episode, "Willow" breaks down in anguish in front of Xander over her new feelings for Kennedy clashing with her not having fully accepted Tara's death. It seems Creator/AdamBusch couldn't pull off anguish very well, and angle during the scene shows him with just the biggest laughing smile on his face that couldn't be mistaken for anything else.
