Joss Whedon creates another pivotal episode of Buffy, taking great pleasure in creating havoc for his characters along the way.

Highlights of the episode include the delightful Spike/Joyce dynamic and the beautifully written and acted scene where Buffy reveals the truth to her mother:

"What do you think has been going on for the past two years? The fights, the weird occurrences... How many times have you washed blood out of my clothing, and you still haven’t figured it out?"

After the multifarious delights of the last episode, (most notably all the flashbacks depicting events we’d only previously heard about), Becoming part two is perhaps not as thrilling action-wise as we might have expected. It has, however, taken the show and given it a thorough shaking.

Or, as Spike so eloquently puts it: "Goodbye Piccadilly, farewell Leicester bloody Square!" And it's a fitting finale to Buffy's first full-length season, with Joss whipping up the emotion to end with a deeply touching, and intensely romantic climax.
