This time on Buffy and the Art of Story, Real Me (S5 E2 of Buffy the Vampire Slayer), where Dawn and Buffy clash and Harmony returns. This podcast episode looks at:
(1) Starting in media res – in this case in the middle of Dawn’s world; (2) Who is the protagonist – Dawn or Buffy? (3) Creating suspense by holding back from the audience; and (4) A little sister who’s young for her age.
Spoiler-free, except at the end (with plenty of warning).
Last Episode: Buffy vs Dracula (S5 E1)
Next Up: The Replacement (S5 E3)
