| Interesting! I never did believe that Spike would sell those eggs to foriegn govs...but hey, you knoe those Buffy writers..they couldn't let him look to good, could they? Bastards. |
| Exactly what I think! Thank you. |

| Sad that it still ended on a sad note, but at least she realized that he wasn't this "doctor". |
| thank you for review. I hate this episode soo much, I needed to rewrite the end. |

| I REALLY love this rewrite!! Excellent!!!... and it makes so much more sense than Spike having the eggs on purpose. I always thought Riley was behind the eggs being there... although my theory runs more towards tricking Spike into it in some way. Either way I can't believe that Spike would willingly risk either Buffy or Dawn by having dangerous demon eggs in his crypt or allowing them to be in Sunnydale at all. |
| Thank you. You’re quite right. The whole egg plot is silly in that episode. Just a device to make Buffy break up with Spike. |

Nice. I like your version better  That Spike would call himself 'doctor' is to me highly unlikely, as you said: why would he call himself the name of the demon that helped kill Buffy? That Riley planted the eggs in the crypt was a nice twist. You won't by any chance post a sequel? -Buffy's apolgy? ;) |
| Thank you for reviewing. |

| Fitted perfectly with cannon, and tied up a whole lot of loose ends. Why *would* Spike call himself by the same name as the demon who was responsible for Buffy's death. Stupid Riley; I'd love to get my boot in his bland face. VeryVery good job, really enjoyed it :] |
| Thanks for reading my story. Nice to know you thought in worked out okay. |

| Exactly, why would he? Never made sense to me. |

| Very nice! I like this twist to the episode. It even fits in with the shot scenes and would explain Buffy's expression at the end. I also like how you had her going to find Spike at the end. |
| Thanks for the review. Glad you think it works well. |

I like this one MUCH better! Yeah, the whole "doctor" thing had occured to me too. I wonder why they ever put that it there. That seems very much a Riley-like thing to do.
Oh and the ending line, "The fact that she never once thought, “I don’t love him,” wouldn’t occur to her until it was far too late." Thats awesome. What a great way to wrap things up!! |
| Yes, Riley was never stupid. Devious, but not thick. He taught at college, after all. |

| Loved it! I always thought it was weird how Riley acted when he showed up! Too bad she didn't mark up his face so that his wife knew what he was up to as well! If Buffy couldn't have the happiness that she deserved then why should he? |
| Sometimes “uncaring Buffy” can be quite caring, even to those who’ve hurt her. |

| Hmmmm. Better ending but, as usual, Spike gets f***ed without getting kissed. |
| Tried to stay in canon as much as poss. |

| Still sad, but not as bad as the show. |
| I felt it had to mirror the show’s feelings but make sense as well. |

That was great! I always hated that ep, myself. It was really flawed. Your interpretation, was flawless. Great job.  |
| Thank you for such a kind review. |

| wow!! what a spectacular ending to that episode! like it so much better than the original! is this a one-shot or are you going to write more? please write more, i love it!! |
| Well, I only saw this as a rewrite of the ending to the episode in question. Don’t set me loose on SR.! |
