Buffy and Angel Questions

[Sosa lola]

Did Anya stop working at the Magic Box in S7? She never got around to repairing the place, right?

[flow]

I think, there was a scene, when she was cleaning the place up. It was probably in Same Time, Same Place. But as far as I remember, the Magic Box was never reopened. And Anya was already back into vengeance demon business and`was travelling all over the world.

Yes - that's right. Willow goes in search of Buffy and Xander and finds Anya at the shop. It's the last time we see it.

* Buffy has a bruise on her inner thigh in "Seeing Red" (B 6.19). But that bruise could have been from crashing into something, falling, happened on patrol, whatever. I consider Buffy never told the Scoobies that Spike could physically fight Buffy and that he could fight-to-kill her.

Buffy never told the Scoobies about Spike's involvement in the demon eggs thing and hers stopping Xander going after Spike and hers keeping Spike's jacket and in "Lessons" (B 7.01) and "Beneath You" (B 7.02) regarding her relationships with Angel and Spike as equal, it's very unlikely Buffy told the Scoobies that Spike's chip no longer worked on her.

Besides, why would Buffy want the Scoobies suspecting she may no longer be human enough for the chip to work on her?


* I've always assumed Anya somehow either got insurance money for the Magic Box's destruction or Giles reimbursed Anya.


QUESTIONS:

* Are Spike and Drusilla in "Surprise" (B 2.13) celebrating Drusilla's human birthday or her 'vampire' birthday? I've always consider they were celebrating her human birthday.


* Why didn't (or couldn't) the monks make Spike care about Dawn? In "Real Me" (B 5.02), he gives Harmony the idea to capture Dawn. Harmony seemed to at least somewhat care about Dawn given Harmony doesn't try to kill Dawn.

When does Spike first start to care about Dawn? "Forever" (B 5.17)?

Neither Dru or Spike mention what the party is for. It isn't necessarily a birthday party, it's more likely to be a party to celebrate them bringing the Judge together.

I am pretty sure, they are celebrating, that the ritual worked and Dru got better. There is a line by either Dru or Spike somewhere (I don`t remember exactly, where) before the ritual, that they will have a party after.

Of course it is also possible, that Buffy woke up that morning off screen, got out of bed, tripped over a chair and got a bruise on her inner thigh.

But...she comes home from patrol with a backache. The show emphasizes, that she has gotten that backache from a fight with a vampire. They don`t show a bruise on her inner thigh nor does she limp or use some ice or utters anything, about her leg being in pain as well as her back.

Spike pins her down on the floor and I haven`t rewatched the scene lately, but I am pretty sure, he has his knee somewhere near her thigh. When he has left, the first thing, we see of her, is, that she has a bruise on her inner thigh.

If the writers intention was, to show us, that Spike did not bruise her, they wouldn`t have shown the bruise or they whould have have her say to Xander "Oh, don`t get this wrong. I had the bruise before."

We never see Spike kill the two guys, who were with Sheila in School Hard. We just see them lying in the streets with severe neck injuries and a second later Spike says Hi to Sheila. Of course it is possible, that the two guys were attacked by another vampire or a street mugger or got into a fight with each other (without Sheila noticing it). However, the most likely theory is, that Spike killed them off screen.

Many scenes in BtVS allow us different interpretations. But I don`t think this particular scene in Seeing Red is one of them, to be quite honest.

Guys, I understand that this thread is quite old but where can I find Buffy with German subtitles?

[Silver1]

Oh blimey, now you're asking. I wouldn't have a clue I'm afraid. Sorry.

Da Amazon prime in der Tat nur die deutsche synchronisierte Fassung anbietet (was einem Kapitalverbrechen nahekommt), ist die einzige L?sung die DVDs zu kaufen. Die bieten tats?chlich auch die englische Originalfassung mit wahlweise englischen oder deutschen Untertiteln an. Ich w?rde aber nicht nur auf die deutsche synchronisierte Fassung sondern auch auf deutsche Untertitel komplett verzichten und statt dessen die englische Version mit englischen Untertiteln w?hlen. Die deutsche ?bersetzung ist einfach grauenhaft und grottenschlecht.

flow thanks for teaching me a new German word, "grottenschlecht". I love it!

AmaDeY1991 welcome to the forum, neighbour! (Well, I assume.)
