EPISODE 120: AVENGING ANGEL (S06E20 "Villains")
“I know, I know. And I can’t understand anything. Not what happened, and not what you must be going through. Willow, if you do this, you let Warren destroy you, too.”
In the wake of Tara's death, Willow's tremendous power, skill, and rage is set to exact bloody revenge on Warren. But he has an ace-in-the-hole in which he has absolute faith - he is a man.
The Buffy Boys see how that works out in S06E20 "Villains".
Key Buffy Bits from this episode include:
The protean metaphor of magic - lesbianism, addiction, metastasizing into queer wrath
Structural collapse of narrative as Willow crosses boundaries personally and in genre convention
The vanishing point of humanity in the Buffyverse and when it's okay to kill, actually
"You've got to stop doing this. This dying thing is funny once, maybe twice."
