EPISODE 116: THE NOOSE AROUND THE NECK (S06E16 "Hell's Bells")
“Yeah. You know, he’s not just a minister, he’s a doctor. He’s like, half-minister, half-doctor. A minitor. Not, of course, to be confused with a minotaur! Because he’s all, you know, man, this doctor-minister-man. No bull parts, whatsoever”
On the cusp of marital bliss, Xander goes back to the future to heed dire portents of trauma, alcoholism, and disrespectful half-elf children. Also, Buffy juggles. The Boys are back and sitting on the bride's side in "Hell's Bells".
Key Buffy Bits from this episode include:
'Part Satyr on your mother's side' - the matrilineal demonic dynamics of Anya's vengeance heritage
