I mostly love this episode, especially the whole conversation with Spike. It's so well written and Jane Espenson did such a good job with the ambiguity there. What I do NOT love, though, is the way Buffy, Xander, and Dawn are written. Why would they assume that because Willow flayed ONE person ONE time as a specific act of vengeance against the man who murdered her girlfriend, that she was somehow INTO flaying? She never actually removed ANYONE else's skin, so why would she have even remotely been a suspect this time? Buffy is acting like a six-year-old who just learned a new word after she saw Willow flay one guy.

Gnarl is a very popular creature design in the fandom. I've seen people rank it as #2 after The Gentlemen from "Hush" as a one-shot villain. Dawn's line about getting to wear high-heels is something that Michelle Trachtenberg actually said off-screen. She wanted to get to dress more "adult" in season seven, but they kept her in sneakers because despite being the youngest character (And actually being the youngest actor) she was one of the tallest people in the cast. If she wore high-heels she would tower over her "older sister" and they didn't want that image.

Well, they see the dark magic as something that took her over, so I'd say it's fair for them to assume, or at least suspect, that if she lost control again, she might do something similar.

For me The Gentlemen, Gnarl and Der Kindestod are the three scariest demons in the whole show

Confusion or not, you almost immediately grasped that they were all in the same place at the same time, but couldn't see each other. Much better than me the first time I watched this. I was completely baffled as to what was going on until about halfway through when it finally clicked in my mind. This episode is much more fun to watch on replay. You can better appreciate how it's put together, especially the Spike in the basement scene, which is so cleverly written and staged. Oh, and the word Spike is looking for, the one that means "glowing," is "effulgent," the word that got laughed at in Willam's poem in the flashback in ep 5x7 Fool For Love.

Fun fact: Since you mentioned how you enjoyed the actor playing Gnarl, you should know that the actor is Camden Toy and you previously saw him in the Hush episode, as one of the Gentleman. He appears again in future Buffy and Angel episodes but won't spoil who of course. Might be fun for you to try figuring that out as you go. Sadly, the actor passed away just a couple years ago from cancer.

You're so annoying somtimes. How did you manage to figure that out before the opening credits had ended? Hahahahaha.

"It's all connected." It cannot be a coincidence that Gnarl leaves a skinned corpse on Xander's work site, on the night Willow gets back. Or that Willow has to fight alone a demon immune to magic. Actually Willow failed rather pathetically and nearly faced a fate similar to Warren's, but much more of the slow, eaten alive variety. The "vengeful spirits" of episode 1 came at Buffy with guilt trips, kind of specific to her. Like it was her they were targeting. The Thing that revealed itself to Spike, it took on the image of the past season's Big Bads, and of Buffy too. And for some reason Spike hasn't mentioned it, not to anyone. Spike is not crazy, but it seems like it when he is apparently arguing with nobody. This time we see that he did it again, but kind of worked his way around the "no-telling" spell, so that even if he couldn't tell Buffy and Willow that they were there at the same time, he could get halfway there with a clue. Not mad-buggering ape, our boy. Struggling with forces beyond his control, perhaps.

Yea I totally knew it was Willow who unintentionally turned herself invisible from the first time watching at the start, it was obvious to me.
