This week on Buffy and the Art of Story – Lovers Walk (Season 3 Episode 8 of Buffy the Vampire Slayer). This podcast episode talks about:
(1) how a side character (Spike!) changes our main characters’ story arcs; (2) major plot turns in some unusual places; (3) protagonist questions; and (4) whether Spike is the most emotionally healthy character in this episode.
As always, the discussion is spoiler-free, except at the end (with plenty of warning).
Last Episode: Revelations
Next Up: The Wish
Lovers Walk was written by Dan Vebber and directed by David Semel.
