Episode in Focus: Damage
Next week we are looking at Damage, one of the most memorable episodes starring a one-shot character that we see in season 5. So from Monday your time, get sharing whatever you have to share on this week's terrifyingly terrific new Episode in Focus. Meta, vids, art, poems, fic, whatever you got, we want it.
Episode in Focus: Damage
You probably had this thought before - what if the spell in Chosen caught up some girls who couldn't handle it? Well, this week, we meet Dana. A hugely damaged girl, fathoms deep in her own nightmares, who now has a layer of Slayer dreams and Slayer strength overlaying them. Which means bad, bad news for any souled heroic vampire who accidentally falls into her hands. In this case, it's Spike, beating out Angel in the battle of the competitive heroic vampires. Hands being, unfortunately, the operative word for anyone who falls into Dana's. Alongside the very real horror show this week, there's also the troubling spectre of Andrew (remember Andrew?) bossing a crew of Slayers. Yikes. And indeed Aiiieeee. No wonder Team Angel are a little nonplussed.
Key Quote:
SPIKE
A psychotic vampire slayer.
ANGEL
How many times you gonna keep sayin' that?
SPIKE
Just tryin' to wrap my lobes around it. A psycho slayer.
ANGEL
And you let her get away.
SPIKE
At least I was tryin' to stop her.
ANGEL
Oh, how'd that work out?
SPIKE
At least I know the game, now, don't I? I killed 2 slayers with my own hands. Think I can handle one that's gone daft in the melon.
ANGEL
You're not handling anything, Spike. OK? Wes contacted Rupert Giles. He's sendin' his top guy to retrieve her.

Still have something to share about previous episodes in this season? We're running an ongoing catchup amnesty for anything relating to previous episodes of AtS season 5. We can always stand a little more of the good stuff.
