Not one of the standout episodes, but good nonetheless. And, really, more than a little sad. Chris (aka unabrow boy) just wanted his brother back, and went about it the wrong, icky, creepy way. His friend was way more evil than he was. Also, didn't he kind of remind you of Egor? Intentional, I'm sure.
What I really loved about this episode, however, was the interaction between Angel and Buffy at the end. It was the first time that I think the audience really gets to see how doomed their love really is. His little speech explaining why he's jealous of Xander is so poignant and sincere. You can tell that he's truly in love with Buffy, while I think she's still in the beginning stages of her feelings for him. *le sigh* I just wish those two had it easier... But, then, I guess the show wouldn't be half as interesting, huh?
