Subject: A REQUEST FOR ALL WRITERS
OK, I'm going to be updating the S8 Ep Guide.
If possible, could all of you who've written an ep so far respond to this thread and state any guest stars in your episode, as well as what you see as being the important plot points.
This will all make sense once it's done!
Thanks.
Kash :-)

Episode 11 - There's a lot of important points in this episode -- Linda_Delurked, 08:58:53 05/16/03 Fri
Sorry, but it was a complicated ep.
Title: The Powers that Do.
Guest Stars: CLEM!!! And Amber Benson as Tara.
Willow recognised the power in the watch that was being delivered to Raven (though not the symbol itself, which is not actually connected to Proserpexa. It's a symbol of time.)
Proserpexa was able to inflict harm on Willow from wherever she is. She was also able to inflict harm on Amy. When she is in the Buffyverse reality she will be much more powerful.
Proserpexa stole Willow's knowledge of her power and gave it to Amy, so that Willow would not recognise who had harmed her.
The scoobies find out that Amy is involved with their new threat.
Amy has doubts about what she is doing, but doesn't tell anyone. She researches her new power source, showing that she's in over her head and doesn't really understand what she's doing.
Xander and Kennedy are furious at Amy for hurting Willow yet again. Kennedy tells the gang that Amy is a threat and should be killed. Later in the episode, when Amy hurts Faith with a spell, Xander uses Amy's gun to threaten her life.
Amy tells Xander and Faith some secrets to spare her life, but does not tell them the whole truth. The other followers of Proserpexa know this and are not angry with her. Amy's doubts are put aside when they give her a gift of Willow's knowledge of Proserpexa.
Faith is really angry and a little scared by Xander's reaction to Amy. She tells him she doesn't feel she can trust him. They both agree that Buffy should be told.
Willow has already told Kennedy the full truth about her past.
Dawn is reading Tara's book of shadows and learning simple spells. Giles is guiding her.
The memory spell that Proserpexa used made Willow fully understand for the first time what her memory spells had done to Tara. Willow is upset by this. However, she works through her feelings (with some help from Kennedy) and by the end of the episode is making her peace with it. She also recieves a small sign that Tara still forgives her.
This is done deliberately so that Willow is in a stronger place emotionally to deal with Proserpexa.
I think that's everything!

Episode 16 - "Connected" -- Wyvern, 19:31:06 06/01/03 Sun
A BunnyPhobia/Wyvern co-production *g*
Xander, under the influence of Proserpexa, stabs Amy. Amy falls into the remains of the Hellmouth.
Kennedy disagrees with the Scooby approach to dealing with the apparent murder.
Proserpexa continues to exert pressure on Xander, using him to divide and distract the Scoobies.
Willow admits that when Xander saved her on the Bluff in "Grave" she made him vulnerable to Proserpexa.
The book Ethan stole was "something to do with a second coming"... or possibly "The Teen Witch's Book of Glamors, Love Spells and Blemish Cures".
Proserpexa's temple rises.
Dawn attempts to fold back time using magic, even after reading Tara's Book of Shadows and Tara's misgivings about Willow's use of magic. Spike stops her.
Xander and Anya have another "moment".
Willow believes she is at least as responsible for Amy's death as Xander.
Whilst Willow and Xander are beating up on themselves over Amy's killing, she isn't dead...
I think that's it... wow, there was a lot going on in that episode!
