* FairForItsDay: Even for its day, this episode was fairly borderline, but 20 years on, it doesn't work as well. Native groups are getting more insistent on the recognition of the fact that the US government continued programs of intentional genocide well into the 20th century and the Land Back movement (yes, Giles, they are demanding that) is growing in popularity, among other things.

Also, an episode about the plight of Native Americans featuring an [[MonochromeCasting all-white cast]] and the only Native American is a violent villain who is killed by the white heroes by episode's end.

* SpecialEffectFailure: The fight between Buffy and the bear. They did their best, but shooting from behind Buffy it's clear the bear is on a green screen and is just pawing at the air, and close up shots are a pretty crappy bear suit.

* CriticalResearchFailure: Referring to the Chumash, Spike says "You [i.e. white Americans] exterminated his race." This is technically incorrect, as there are still several thousand Chumash living in and around the California area today.

This is not an example.

* DesignatedVillain: Buffy briefly has some guilt over having to fight a spirit with a very justified grudge, but the episode quickly plows past it. Of course, as [[JerkassHasAPoint Spike]] points out, what said spirit wants is to murder everyone as revenge for the massacre of his own people, so short of letting themselves be brutally slaughtered, there's not really anything that can be done about it.

** Buffy complains about the morally grey nature of the MonsterOfTheWeek, noting that she likes her evil like she likes her men; [[AllGirlsWantBadBoys evil]]. This was really only meant to be ribbing on the whole Angel(us) thing when the episode came out, but by season 6 this comment becomes ''hilariously'' prophetic.
