Buffy find hers in a weakened position. Suddenly her power has been drained. She is nearly killed, saved only by the clumsiness of her assailant. It turns out that she is eighteen and must go through a rite of passage. She must face off against a vampire's vampire as a girl with no special gifts. She must use her guile and intelligence rather than brute strength. Why this is necessary is barely explained. Gile becomes a villain to her for a while and must redeem himself for his participation in the ruse. This is well crafted. I think the worst part of this is not the monster, but the men she encounters like the guy she tries to pull away who is assaulting Cordelia.
