Piñata

In Listening to Fear, Xander jokes about the meteorite being a “festive piñata”. Piñatas are a tradition often found at children’s birthday parties. They are papier-mache figures filled with sweets. Children are blindfolded and given a stick to hit the piñata, to try and break it open to get at the sweety goodness inside. Nicholas Brendon (Xander) appeared in a movie called Demon Island in 2002, in which a demon is hidden in a piñata and is let loose.
In Blood Ties, Buffy says, “I just don’t think this is the best time to break out the party piñata”.

    I’m not 100% about this but everytime I watch this episode i’m convnced that Tara says the f word after Xander finds the Queller demon in the book. I think she says somethign tlke “Xander’s little **ck…” Could somebody please tell me if this is true or what she really IS sayin

    I think this is the line:

    “Tara: Xander’s little book made it sound like this Queller thing had to be summoned. So … who summoned it?”

    Got it from a transcript site so it might sound different.

    Yep, I got it as ‘book’ too.
