One of my favourite Buffy episodes! But I keep being bugged by everyone saying that The First decides to attack now because of Buffy being brought back from the grave at the beginning of last season - when in reality the power imbalance started when she came back from the grave at the end of season 1, and Kendra was activated; then when Kendra was killed and Faith was activated (Faith carries the natural slayer line) and yet Buffy still exists! So the imbalance in the slayer line and between good and evil started long ago, not when she came back the second time.
