Episode Quotes

	Season 2 / Episode 13: - Surprise (1) Spike: You might give him a chance to find your lost treasure. He is a wanker, but he's the only one we've got with half a brain. If he fails, you can eat his eyes out of the sockets for all I care.
	Season 2 / Episode 13: - Surprise (1) Willow: Oh, it's just it's Buffy's birthday, and we're throwing her a surprise party. Oz: It's okay. Willow: But you could come, if you wanted. Oz: Well, I don't wanna crash. Willow: No, it's fine. Well, you could be m-my date. Oz: Alright, I'm in. Willow: [to herself] I said 'date.'

MISTAKES/GOOFS

CHAR: Buffy makes a grievous error while discussing her dream about Drusilla. She comments that Dru could be alive since a body was never found. As the Slayer, Buffy knows that Dru couldn't be alive if there's no body, since vampires turn to dust when slain.

TRIVIA

The Jenny Calendar character was not originally intended to be a gypsy, that plotline arose out of a need to further explain and deepen the curse storyline.
In Buffy's first dream, Willow tells the monkey (in French) "The hippo stole your pants." This is a reference to Willow and Oz's conversation in the previous episode (_"Buffy the Vampire Slayer" (1998) {Bad Eggs (#2.12)}_) about the monkey animal cracker wearing pants and the hippo being jealous, and that all monkeys are French.
Mercedes McNab appeared as Harmony Kendall in this episode, however due to time constraints and the focus on the Buffy/Angel and the Spike/Drusilla/Judge story lines her scenes were cut out
