Following Faith

[jazzy_dave]

Well, as i seemed  to concentrate on the two jobs today i forgot to take nay non-work related photos. I will have to make amends during the week ahead.

Last night i watched two episodes of Season 4 from BtVS and two from Season one of Angel following the story of the rogue slayer faith, after she wakes up from the coma. Specifically,

Buffy S4
This Year's Girl
Who Are You?

Angel S1
Five By Five
Sanctuary

then Buffy S4
The Yoko Factor

Along with reading the excellent e-book on the series i will going on to Season 5 again.

The main thrust of that season was the idea of identity, and the loss of identity and identity theft, especially when Faith switches bodies with Buffy via a magical device, and knowing who you are, or being your authentic self. Also , when Riley discovers that the initiative had a darker agenda, his upbringing of just following orders and not questioning makes him very unprepared for the grey areas that Buffy walks in when it comes to vampires and demons. The dream sequences in Restless really caps the whole season off in a great way foreshadowing what is too come in the next one.
