Trivia / Buffy The Vampire Slayer S 7 E 6 Him

• Completely Different Title:
  • German: Liebesbeweise (Proofs of Love)
  • French: Folles de lui (Crazy About Him)
• Dawson Casting: Thad Luckinbill, who portrays RJ is actually TEN years older than Michelle Trachtenberg and two years older than Sarah Michelle Gellar. Though you wouldn't know it here.
• Deleted Scene: This exchange was cut due to length, where Dawn tries to figure out the relationship between Spike and her sister:
  Dawn: And I'm even trying to understand that. A little. The rape part.
  Buffy: He didn't. I mean, he tried-
  Dawn: Not that. I just...you guys had sex a lot, right? It's not like you were strangers. Weren't you even...being kind of rough with each other? Anya said some stuff.
  Buffy: I should have killed her when I had the chance. Dawn, it was complicated. But I'd broken it off with him. I didn't want it anymore.
• Irony as She Is Cast: Dawn's disastrous cheerleading tryout is hilarious when you know that Michelle Trachtenberg studied ballet.
• Recycled Script: "Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered" has Xander convince a witch to do a love spell on him meant for Cordelia, which accidentally results in hundreds of women falling in love with him and him and Cordy almost getting killed. This episode has a character wear a magic letter jacket that makes women fall in love with him and causes similar though less widespread mayhem. The latter episode has a flashback of the previous episode and Xander fondly reminiscing about it, apparently forgetting about the almost getting killed part.
