Spoiler Slayer

Jen posted more dialogue from that scene that's causing so much trouble.

We still don't know what episode this is but it sounds like episode 9 where Buffy ends up in the mental hospital and no one knows what is and isn't real. I say that because there is a reference to Giles leaving and we know he leaves in episode 8. This is scene 8.:

Buffy: Ugh, Ew, gross Spike. He left. I was depressed. Ergo badness[sleeping with Spike?] and...You have to let it go.

Spike: I've changed. (might be "I'm changing" or "I can change.")--

Buffy: Please. Let it go.

She walks away. Spike grabs her.

Buffy: Don't touch me

She hits him. He hits her back hard and she falls on the ground. He has a very delayed chip reaction. She gets up, hits him back and he falls down, which is when she says "You're nothing but a disgusting thing."

He's on his knees facing the camera, wiping his mouth and she's standing behind him...looks like more "you're beneath me" imagery here.

That's all of it. Scene 9 is the scene Sweetie posted where Spike tries to bite a woman. Sweetie speculates that he is testing whether the chip is still working after having such a delayed reaction, plus he's angry with Buffy.

If this is true, then the first line fills in mucho detail. First, if Spike and Buffy sleep together, it won't be until the end of Episode 8. Because from the line, it would seem that Giles left, Buffy was depressed, and then something happened. Could fall right into that shock ending that is supposedly going to happen. That would work, with them waking up at the start of Episode 9, then the scene with the rejection (otherwise, why wouldn't it have happened sooner). The delayed reaction with the chip also could make sense. If Buffy is possessed by a demon (like the spoilers say), then that could cause a delay maybe (although I've always been against the idea of the chip as a demon detector. It's a behavioral mod, if would work based on what the chipped character thinks the other person is). I don't want to move anything around on the Spoiler Slayer page just yet, but it's something that needs to be added to the mix.

Also, this was posted to the Cross and Stake. I will be adding various spoilage from here to the Spoiler Slayer page today. A few new bits, which are really iffy at this point (mainly anything past Episode Nine). I have no idea where these are coming from, it could just be speculation or a compilation of current spoilers, mixed with some new stuff. However, with the above, I'm kind of backing away from the idea that Tara will leave with Giles. Don't get me wrong, I still have a feeling that the writers would love to have her on the new show. The problem is, if the shock ending is Buffy/Spike, then Tara leaving doesn't make as much sense. Up until today, we were working with the spoiler that Buffy/Spike happens during the musical. There are a few inconsistencies in the descriptions, but they do kind of fall into a place. Note for DeKnight fans, he was making cracks about Xander and Spike equals Strange Love at the end of last season (Could fit the Xander/Spike/Anya love triangle in 'Tabula Rasa')

Another thing that bugs me, I could not locate the original post. It was supposedly posted at Forums4Fans (FanForum), but I couldn't turn it up anywhere. If someone could mail it to me if you come across it, I don't want to add them to the Spoiler Slayer until I have the original post.
