Such a good episode! I like this show more with the addition of the lovely Michelle Trachtenberg as Dawn.
First, we have that scene where Buffy performs the witchcraft and sees Dawns picture flickering in and out. Touchingly done. Next, we get the introduction of Glory, whose such a better adversary than lackluster Adam. The monk and Gellar both do remarkable acting jobs here. Finally we have that most hilarious scene with Spike smoking outside Buffy's house, stalking her because she appeared in his dreams.

Buffy: “What are you doing here? Five words or less.”

Spike: “Out. For. A. Walk....Bitch.”

Buffy: “Outside my house at night? No-one has time for this, William.”

Spike: “On your merry way then. Contrary to one self-involved world view, your house happens to be directly between parts and other...parts of this town. And I would pass by in the day, but I feel I’m outgrowing my whole burst-into-flame phase.”

Buffy: “Fine. Keep going, I cut you a break.”

Spike: “Yeah, okay, let me guess, you won’t kill me? Ooh, the whole crowd pleasing threats and swagger routine...how stunningly original. I’m just passing through, satisfied? I really hope so because God knows you need some satisfaction in life besides shagging Captain Cardboard and I never really liked you anyway, and you have stupid hair.”
