Shallow faces the truth

If you think about it, series 5 should really have come to an abrupt end with 5.13 Earlier Than Usual, finishing up with Glory holding Buffy's severed head up by the hair before tossing it aside. In the background we can see the dismembered remains of the Scoobies, an arm here, a leg there; perhaps Willow like a broken plastic doll. It's horridly reminiscent of the last episode of Blackadder II.

'Now, where were we, Dawnie?' Glory drawls, wiping her hands and striding forward and past the camera.

Next week: 2.16 Realistic Passion, where Angelus impales Willow, Xander and Joyce on the same pole like a horrific kebab, and leaves it on Buffy's front lawn for when she opens her curtains.
