To say the least, this episode is certainly ballsy for series television. Virtually the entire episode has no dialog. What other series would dare to go to such an extreme in order to advance the season story-line? Would Lost? Would 24? (Well, okay, that's a possibility. David Fury IS involved there). Would Grey's Anatomy? The trick, as anyone watching this episode soon discovers, is to get Christophe Beck to score the episode. My recommendation for anyone thinking about whether this episode should be watched or not is DO IT! And be aware of how the music score tells the story the missing dialog would have told, but tells it even more compellingly than words could. The Buffy/Riley love theme is simply a flat-out bewitchingly beautiful piece of music. 10++++ out of 10
