I was thinking about that scene for a while now myself. I thought that was 
Spike's real plan; to love Buffy, in order to kill her.

Another scene from seasons past ran through my head earlier this season. In 
"Amends", when Angel was preparing to die at sunrise, Buffy challenged his 
idea of being strong; "Strong is fighting! It's hard, and it's painful, and 
it's every day." Shades of what she later told Dawn at the end of "The 
Gift", huh? I guess that's what's been aggrivating me about this season; 
Buffy hasn't been fighting, just letting events drag her along from day to 
day. Hopefully she'll remember her own words in the future.

Totally unrelated theory regarding Monday's episode of Angel ahead!

Okay, so Holst took Connor and ran into the portal opened up by that 
time-traveling demon, right? My prediction(and I haven't read any spoilers 
for future eps) is that the next time we see Connor he'll be an adult(time 
travel, y'know), and having been raised by Holst, will recognize Angel as his 
enemy. Leading to that whole father vs. son prophecy thing. So Connor will 
be next season's major villain.
