WHAM!! That's the sound of Joss's feminist film theory professors 
knocking him silly with some textbooks.

I just shake my head at it. I think the worst part is that they 
specifically pointed up their lesbianism, like mega pointed, just in 
time for The Big Ole Dykes to get their Cosmic Comeuppance...IN THE 
BEDROOM.

!! That is the sound of ME not thinking.

Yes, Will's apparent reaction to Tara's death is in character (see 
Tough Love), and yes, Tara was the big ole pawn to get Willow where ME 
needed to get her, but...eh. I'm not terribly up in arms over it -- 
hello, inurement! -- but I think ME made a mistake here.

(i'll have to watch this again, but did W&T react to the sounds of the 
gunshots? it all happened so fast! it's weird: i totally knew what 
was happening, yet on some level i still couldn't believe it.)
