It bothered me a bit that Buffy was being led down a road of destruction. Without Faith, she would never have broken into a store and stolen all kinds of things. Of course, they needed things to face off against their antagonists. We have the arrival of Wesley as the new watcher and Buffy and Faith immediately resent him. They go rogue. It always amazes me that there is a kind association of vampire slayers that oversees the actions of it's field officers. The thing that happens that is going to be on the backs of Buffy and Faith is Faith killing the mayor's aide. She could be excused because he came walking into a deadly situation. The girls had just confronted a bunch of vampires and she turned around and he was there. Without thinking, she staked him. Buffy put a guilt trip on her, but under the circumstances it was an accidental killing. One needs to consider what these girls' job is. In war the guy would have been collateral damage, like an innocent person walking into a battle. It will be interesting to see what happens to Faith now.
