S3E12: ”Helpless”

The Watchers’ Council woke up this morning and chose violence. Literally. While Buffy is dreaming of ice shows with daddy, Daddy Giles injects her with a suspicious substance. Coincidentally, Buffy’s powers begin to wane. It’s all part of a plan to test the Slayer by sending her into a deadly situation de-powered and utterly betrayed. Worst. Birthday present. Ever.

• Oh Faith, where art thou?
• Our discomfort with a lot of the choices in this ep
• Buffy is a serious badass with or without Slayer powers!
• The real enemy, as usual, is the patriarchy
