I just read the spoilers and I agree, it sounds like a great ep. Creepy and suspenseful. I love eps where we spend half the time trying to figure out what is going on.

I hope Fred/Spike turns into friendship only. It makes sense that they are drawn to each other with Spike’s soft spot for chicks and Fred’s sympathetic attitude towards anyone who doesn’t try to kill her. I just hope it doesn’t turn romantic. She’s already stolen Wes and Gunn’s heart. I think Spike’s respect and possibly a big brother affection for her would be a nice change for both characters. They have been doting/doted on a bit too much :)
