Summary: “Do you really see yourself writhing on Riley’s lap all where your watcher can hear you? Do you see yourself devouring him with kisses right in front of your precious Scoobies? Jumping and riding him in the middle of a slay? All of that happened. And it didn’t happen with a good man.” Missing scene in Doomed. Buffy really did do an abrupt about-face about Riley, didn’t she?
