Previously on the rewatcher, Buffy the Vampire Slare. And they're just like, I'm entertaining and educating. He's becoming a YouTuber in the bathroom. He's like, like and subscribe for more. We're going to be terrible. We're going to be terrible. It was a different time. Smoking is hot. Go in the woods. I'm like, it was the 90s. No one has ever looked at eggs around me at least and said that. And it's like she was never like that. I've never had to eat eggs around you. He says she's bubbly and sweet and has a smile that lights up a room. It was so nice. It really was. But as somebody who hosts a true crime podcast called Morbin, when he said lights up a room, I said, oh, oh, don't say that. No, don't say that. Uh-oh. And he said, you say, you ban your burro. And we flashback to the Toga. We are gods, we are gods. And you did not have enough of this. I love that. He's like, oh, this part. Like,, that part was the shirt, right? This was great. Because it does, Kennedy. Kennedy, shut the fuck up. We'll kill you. Why are you here? Yeah. They have a beautiful, they have a great couple name, Zandrew. Oh, Zandrew. Hell yeah. Shut the fuck up. Yeah. I ship it. Let's go. Last episode was so, it's actually so funny because this episode is so fucking serious. Yeah. And then you look at last week, which was, you know, like serious things happened, but it was just a big lull fest. It was. Yes. They did that on purpose. They totally did that shit on purpose. That's why they put them there. They set us up. They set us up. And you know what? And we'll get into it, actually. I can appreciate some of the bigger picture stuff in this episode now because we discussed it beforehand. Whenever we talk about it, I'm like, okay, I see something.

Here's the thing. I think this is a really good episode. Yeah. There's just parts of it that I didn't love, but then there were parts of it that I was like, I respect that. Yeah, that's the thing. I respected too much. And also, it's really sad. It is sad. It is terribly sad. But this episode encapsulates how much of a big, bad they are up against.

Yes.

And I really want to get into that.

Yeah.

I can't wait.

Yeah.

And this is the rewatcher, Buffy the Vampire Slayer. This is Season 7,

Episode 17, Lies that My Parents Told Me. It's done to slay For the vampire art better sharpen your state to slay

It's done to slay

With a demon kiss they'll have to pay better slave.

Lies.

Lies. Soies? Lies.

So one of the things I love about this episode, like Mikey was just saying, like, what a fucking formidable big bad they are up against.

The thing I realized after we started talking about it was all of these things that are happening were we're all orchestrated by the first.

Yes.

So in some way, they benefit the first because the first would not do it if it didn't benefit them.

Yep.

And so while I'm getting aggravated at some of the things that are happening, I'm also sitting here realizing that the first is also fucking me up.
