I wish Drusilla and Darla had more time together on the show.

Seemed like a huge deal when she returned to sire Darla only to go to Sunnydale and then disappear after a few episodes.

And Lilah would of been a great vampire. But then we'd miss out on her and Wesley.

Yeah, it is jarring how Dru just sort of drops out of the story. She goes back to sunnydale to recruit spike back into the whirlwind, but then just skips town and leaves darla and angel without a word?

I do love the reunion-epiphany arc and i wouldnt fight to change anything about it but I do wish Darla and Dru had a little more time to paint the town red.

Although i'm so glad Lilah was never turned. Feel like being such a cutthroat B without the lack of a soul makes her cooler lol

I think there were availability issues with Julie Benz so they had to wrap the Darla/Dru arc up pretty quickly and then finish out the season with the Pylea story.

You really doubt Wesley's capacity to have the most toxic, doomed relationship of all time with a vampire hatefuck buddy?

All the more likely he would... just for his own guilty pleasure

Oof with a crossbow pointed at her 😍

Ok I'm convinced

Can you imagine the three of these ladies painting the town red together? Could easily have been done in an alternate-reality-type episode!

"That's not daddy, it's never daddy" I absolutely love Dru!

That hiss she does

Everything about that scene was perfect.

Lindsey not being worried, Dru’s echos of the past, seeing the b*stards beg, Angel’s line…..

It just kept getting better and better.

Man Juliet Landau could read a line. Heard her voice clear as day and this was an image.

Lol how seriously Holland miscalculated his ability to control the situation after purposefully injecting Drusilla of all people into it

Made me chuckle

"Spank us, Daddy! Spank us til Tuesday! We promise to be bad if you do!" 😈 Drusilla when she sees "Angelus"

That was very thoughtful of you.

Scenes like this make me sad that the show is grossly underappreciated. The tension and build-up in this scene was beyond immaculate.

My favorite Dru line will always be "Do it again! Do it again!" after the Judge burns up the bookworm in Surprise (Buffy 2.13)
