Spoiler Slayer

Herc dropped me a line to clarify the positioning of some of the spoilers (and his take on them). The episode shuffle is actually now causing problems post-musical. Originally, Giles would have said his goodbyes in Episode Seven. Which is now the musical and I failed to move that spoiler to Episode Eight. But is the Mental Hospital episode still Episode Eight, or will it be Episode Nine.

In order to maintain some kind of sanity, I'm going to leave those spoilers as Episode Eight spoilers, but it could change. With the musical almost wrapped, we should start hearing some news on Episode Eight and Nine in the near future.

He also revised the Willow/Tara break-up in the Musical. Tara will find out, but the actual fallout will not occur in that episode. Which pretty much fits my own speculation that the Musical will end much like 'Hush', with everyone feeling very awkward about all the truth-telling that has been going on. Which means that Episode Eight should be a consequences episode.
