All these little cuts and bruises just bring out the mother in me
4 June 2007 | by (Netherlands) – See all my reviews

All these little cuts and bruises just bring out the mother in me - An emotional, well written and maybe a little overrated but certainly one of the best season 1 episodes. 'Faith' is in town and The triple L-M's (Lindsey McDonald, Lee Mercer and Lilah Moran) hire 'Faith' to kill 'Angel', but of course she wants to p!ss him off first by hitting 'Cordy' with her elbow and then kidnapping 'Wes' and torturing him with everything she can think of. The 'Faith' scenes all rocked immensely, from her dance scene to the torture scenes, best of all was of course the amazing ending where 'Faith' begs 'Angel' to kill her, the last shot was simply perfect. FAITH: Did you ever wonder if things would have been different, if we'd never met. What if you'd had Buffy and Giles would have been my Watcher? You think you'd still be here right now? Or would Giles be sitting in that chair? Or is it just like fate. You know, there is no choice. You were gonna be here no matter what. You think about that stuff? Fate and destiny. I don't. Not that any of this is your own fault. Since this may be the last chance we will have to unload on each other, I feel that it is kind of my duty to tell you that if you'd been a better Watcher, I might have been a more positive role model! Face it, Wesley, you really were a jerk. Always walking around as if you had some great big stake rammed up your English Channel. I think I want to hear you scream. WESLEY: You never will. FAITH: Admit it, Wesley, didn't you always kind of have the hots for me? (9.5 out of 10)
