----------------------------recap----------------------------
Yearning for a normal life, Buffy agrees to a date with the mysterious and brooding Owen. Giles discovers a prophecy of coming danger which would interfere with her plans, but she chooses Owen over battling the forces of darkness. When Giles goes out on his own and is trapped by a group of vampires, Buffy must figure out a way to balance dating and Slaying.
--------------------------end recap--------------------------
Buffy: We haven't been properly introduced. (pulls out a stake) I'm Buffy, and you're history!
This is the first time that Buffy stakes a vampire in a graveyard in the teaser. A trend that will become classic as the series progresses.
The prophecy of the anointed one is kinda hokey.
Owen comes across as: brooding, bookworm, old fashioned (pocket watch), thrill seeker.
Owen described as: tall, solitary, mysterious, sensitive, and manly.
Buffy dreams of being a normal teenager mooning over cute guys, like any normal post pubescent girl.
This is the first we see of the struggle Buffy has of trying to juggle being a normal girl, with being the Slayer.
In the end Buffy decides that for the sake of Owens current safety/survival she needs to not date him since he is unaware of her status as the Slayer and wouldn't take the proper precautions to prevent being hurt or, more likely, killed.
My views/status of characters;
Buffy - like
Willow - like
Xander - understandable
Giles - like
Cordelia - dislike
Angel - undecided
The Master - like
Overall I consider this a good episode compared to the rest of the season.
