The Viewing Files: Being A Teacher Has It Drawbacks

Three episodes in and I've pretty much got the theme tune stuck in my head.  I seriously should have this as my ringtone.

In the meantime I'll keep on with my rewatch marathon...

Episode 4: Teacher's Pet

Just when Buffy finds a teacher whose actually gets her he winds up missing (aka dead) and a new teacher arrives causing all the 16 year boys to go into hormonal overdrive.  You just know that something isn't quite right (this probably should have been Sunnydale's motto).

In the end Xander has to face the fact that he has the worse taste in women, Buffy goes on a bug raid and mourns the lost of the one teacher who offered her some encouragement.

Fav Quote: Buffy: Destructo Girl, that's me.

Fashion: Giles is spotted wearing his first sweater vest which is totally hideous by the way as is the check shirt that he wears with it.  Is it weird that I still find him very sexy despite his terrible wardrobe?

Body Count: 1 teacher and possible 1 student (this one is only mentioned by another student to Xander we don't actually see his death)

Episode 5: Never Kill A Boy On The First Date

Going on a date is never easy... especially if you have a not-so-secret life of killing and maiming things.  Never let be said that Buffy is the type of girl to let that stand in her way.  Of course you just know that things aren't going to go right what with a visit to the morgue and all.

Worse date ever.

Weirdly Buffy's date doesn't seem to mind (red flag right there) and even seems to enjoy it (even bigger red flag).  Luckily she takes this as a clue that perhaps he isn't the right guy for her.

Fav Quote:  Giles: Buffy, when I said you could slay vampires and have a social life, I didn't mean at the same time. 

Fashion: Willow totally rocks the long hair pigtail look.  I am very envious.

Body Count: Some random strangers.  Definitely no Sunnydale High students this time round - they will be relieved.

Episode 6: The Pack

Xander tries to do the right thing and ends up being possessed by some kind of hyena spirit along with 4 other students.  Even zoo trips in Sunnydale seem to result in something bad happening.

Back at school the following day Xander is suddenly a bad boy bully with a predatory walk and kind of hot with it and being rude to his friends while hooking up with some new ones.  It's only a matter of time before the pack attacks.

Things go seriously downhill from there especially for Principal Flutie.  And another Sunnydale High teacher is toast.  Somehow the job vacancies at this school should come with a warning.

Fav Quote: Xander: Shoot me, stuff me, mount me.

Fashion: Xander should wear black more often.  Just sayin'.

Body Count:  1 high school principal, and sadly 1 pet pig *sobs*
