Episode Guide
Some Assembly Required

Review

Giles suspects that someone is practising voodoo when the bodies of three cheerleaders killed in a car accident disappear. The school's science fair is imminent, and Cordelia is hoping that her groundbreaking study 'The Tomato - Fruit or Vegetable?' will be enough to prevent her from doing too much work.

Willow is determined to take first prize, but sadly she hasn't reckoned on her rival Chris Epps, who is preparing to create one cheerleader from the body parts salvaged from the car wreckage! (Buffy: "Could this get any yuckier?")

Adding a typically Buffy-esque twist to a well-worn theme, (previously explored in John Hughes' 1985 teen flick Weird Science, itself a reworking of mes Whale's 1935 masterpiece 'Bride of Frankenstein'), makes Some Assembly Required a very entertaining episode.

Ty King's witty script contains lots of gleefully black humour, and even manages to generate some sympathy for its most villainous characters. The episode is also kept buoyant by the charming scenes between the flirtatious Jenny Calendar and the stuffy Giles, who finally plucks up the courage to ask her out. This is the culmination of a lot of very funny advice that Giles receives from his students.

In the tradition of the great Universal Studios horror films of the 1930s Some Assembly Required ends with a laboratory fire started during a struggle between the heroes and the villains, (who are, of course, engulfed in the inferno!).
