Dude, have you watched "Touched" yet? I mean, have you? It always takes me an extra 20 minutes to watch that ep because I have rewind the S&B in the abandoned house scene at least 3 times. (No, not THAT Spike and Buffy in the abandoned house scene; the one where he tells her she's a helluva woman. Ahh. . .)
I don't know how I feel about "Fool for Love." I think it's role in the series is essential, but I got a little confused watching it b/c I couldn't figure out what version of the story Spike was actually telling her. Clearly he wasn't telling EVERYTHING in the flashbacks, but how much of it does she know? I'm gonna rewatch this as soon as I manage to borrow the DVDs and I'll have a more informed opinion.
And I know I've been over this before, but here's a VAMPIRE in love with a VAMPIRE SLAYER and giving her a hard time about HER death wish. And I love that final scene -- the head tilt. I dunno if that's the first time he does it, but it's the first time I remember it (there's another good head tilt in the "shirty" scene in "End of Days"). But anyhow, he tilts the head and suddenly he goes from hot, ripped big bad to "pet me now" puppy dog. I s'pose it's a little obvious as an actor's trick, but I'll take it.
