Buffy the Vampire Slayer: When She Was Bad (1997)
Season 2, Episode 1
8/10
Trauma doesn't just go away
8 August 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Buffy is back but she seems to be a bit distant. She leads Xander on, she is mean to Angel and nasty to Cordelia. She is still having nightmares that The Master has come back to life. Meanwhile The Anointed One is planning to bring The Master back to life but for the ritual to succeed you need the people that were near him when he died - Giles, Willow, Cordelia and Jenny.

Why It's So Good - Shows that Buffy's death still haunts her. It is a deeply traumatic event, and the show made sure that they didn't just sweep it under the rug. Buffy has flaws, and this season shows that.

Watch Out For - Giles killing Buffy, scary!

Quote - "Cordelia, your mouth is open and sound is coming from it. This is never good." - Buffy.
