O.K, I guess going through that journey through Spike's past let Buffy have some insight into herself as well. I can't imagine the blind Slayer we know being willing to hold up a corpse so a vampire can drain it more easily, without a flinch, no matter how practical or necessary it might be. I'm also curious about the objects she received, and if she'll need all of them in a spcial way. Loved working in the railroad spike to free Spike here! And is the coat she's wearing Nikki's coat, without the marks of the two decades Spike wore its counterpart through?

How long does it take to grow an inch of hair? And what's Spike been through that he seems to believe Buffy is a hallucination? Is the Chinese Slayer's enchanted sword gonna work on Jack Frost? And what will happen when Spike finds out about Buffy's trip through his past, especially what Nikki showed her, with three people he killed and Drusilla guiding her?

I was wondering if the bear was going to be help or hindrance on the way out.  I am glad it's help.

The only thought in my mind right now (besides total glee) is . . . are they going to bring a polar bear back into Sunnyhell?
