And Buffy was definitely the one responsible for breaking Spike, just as Hamlet was for Ophelia.
yeah... (pardon my further 'dithering' ;) )...I just watched the scene a while ago where he totally tells her off with "I loved you once" and all that (I'm painfully slow in my viewing process)-- and it made me all sad and upset. Damn those friggin actors! Making me all invovled and emotionally invested. Also, because I know in summary what happens but not in detail (and we haven't gotten this far in class discussion yet) I can' figure out what Hamlet's deal is here with her. I thought he was only pretending to be insane, but then his feelings of anger at Ophelia seemed to be pretty genuine. So was he suposedly mad because she shunned him? Or was he too caught up in thsi thing with his fahter & uncle that he just didn't care about loving her anymore? Maybe I need to get to the rest...
