Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Homecoming (S3E5)

This week in Sunnydale, the competition is heating up faster than a vampire in sunlight! Cordis' complete lack of filter inspires a freshly dumped Buffy to awaken her inner homecoming queen and “stake” her claim at the crown. The dynamics of the Scooby gang get further splintered when Willow and Xander share a kiss that has all of us freaking out. They overcorrect by going #teamCordi and supporting her cut-throat campaign for the crown, leaving Buffy bewildered and kinda pissed!

But that’s not the only competition in Sunnydale this week! Mr. Trick has assembled a ragtag group of assassins to take part in Slayerfest ’98 to collect the bounty on Buffy and Faith’s heads! We’ve got Texture and Josie, supermodels, survivalists and Kulack who has the best damn mohawk we’ve ever seen! Of course, being that it’s Sunnydale where all chaos ensues, Cordelia gets tangled into the mess of Slayerfest, so she and Buffy are forced to work together to try to get to homecoming in time to collect their crown. Can Buffy and Cordi put their fight on pause to escape from Mr. Trick’s Slayerfest? Are Willow and Xander going to talk about THAT kiss? How does Ash feel now that we are FINALLY meeting THE MAYOR?! Tune in to find out!
