I like your idea that we could never suspect something like that about Giles since we adore him so much! :)Suzannenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30892649.post-85132122252251169822011-12-01T08:40:55.757-05:002011-12-01T08:40:55.757-05:00Efthymia: Blurgh, Kennedy!

Bluuuurgh!<br />And now that I got this out of my system...<br /><br />Maybe because my observation skills suck, or maybe because I'm stupid, or maybe because I just love Giles too much and denial has proven to work for me in such cases, I never even considered Giles to be the First before they made that whole story in what-episode-was-that-again (the Season 7 lack of memory I talked about in the other forum). I just assumed he escaped death because he's awesome.Efthymianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30892649.post-35135411355764057462011-11-29T22:39:47.110-05:002011-11-29T22:39:47.110-05:00The First possessing Willow sets her up for her fe...The First possessing Willow sets her up for her fear in the finale.<br /><br />That 'is Giles the First' subplot is soooo lame.<br /><br />There's been a few references to William being abused at school.
