It soon became clear pretty quickly into this game that it would be a two horse race, as soul vampires methods of dealing with a psychotic slayer were put to the test. In the end the difference came down to this methodology. Angel was rewarded for his ivory tower approach, as it left him able to bounce lines off the Ministers of Grace. Spike’s hitting the streets and bouncing lines off various extras and Dana herself was working, and Spike had even had the screen time to win it, but its hard to hold down a conversation with a psychotic slayer when she’s amputating your hands. Its even harder when she drugs you.

How do you judge insanity, well in this game look no further than Dana’s plan. Dana had the screen time and plot to win this, but instead picked up a lowly 24, as she wasted conversation chances by hacking up potential friends, whilst “Head and Heart” proved to be an ineffective topic of conversation. Former BtVS player Andrew crossed over to Angel for the first time, but arrived a little late to do any better than a bronze.

The other regulars got few opportunities in this game, they were largely confined to wolfram and Hart, dependent primarily on Angel for sources of lines, though shockingly for a change Lorne actually came up with a plan for the game beyond getting knocked out and actually left the office for the first time since Halloween. This allowed him to pick up 9 minutes 30 seconds of screen time, his second highest of the season, but shockingly he still only picked up a mere 10 lines. Another tip for Lorne, mentioning you know George Lucas to Andrew could have doubled your score here. Poor Lorne, he never gets his tactics right.
