No, no, cuz then we wouldn't have gotten the tie-in that I've come to 
call "Willow's Bitterest Irony".

**from Flooded**

BUFFY: Wish we knew who hired {the M'Fashnik demon}.

WILLOW: Maybe I could do a locator spell ...

Giles shoots her look.
WILLOW (cont'd): Or not.

**from Villains**

XANDER: Okay, where do we go? She could be anywhere.

BUFFY: I don't know. Um, maybe the Magic Box has some kind of locating 
spell?

This is what happens when one forgets who the protagonist of the A-
story is. Villains should have been Willow's story from beginning to 
end, but for some reason known only to the small, woodland creatures 
blowing thru the chasms of her mind, Noxon suddenly tried to give the 
A-plot back to Buffy. Screeeeeeeeeeeeech, bang!
