Episode 52

"Earshot"


Buffy kills a demon and gets an aspect of it. In other words, she gained the power to read minds. At first, it seems so cool; knowing what the teacher is thinking, hearing guys checking her out, etc. Then, she hears the voice of somebody who is making plans on a killing spree. Buffy's head starts to hurt as it is filled with dozens of thoughts raging at once. She recruits the gang is search of the potential killer. It turns out to be master dork Johnathan, who doesn't wanna kill everyone, but just himself.

 


My Review: Five Stars

This episode was shelved for a while, but finally shown in September. This is definitely my (and SMG's )favorite episode. All of the students' worst fears are heard, and other things too ; Xander has a one-track mind, Joyce and Giles did the nasty-twice, etc....... This eppy is filled with laughs and suspense, and also a touching ending, so to speak. Johnathan drops the gun and Buffy learns that she can trust Angel, and that he doesn't have feelings for Faith.
