Spike’s problems only intensify when Glory’s minions become convinced that he is, in fact, the Key.

April is a perfectly ordinarily girl looking for her boyfriend, Warren. Except by “ordinary” we mean “robot” and by “robot” we mean sexbot. Yes, there’s a new robot in town, and this time Joyce isn’t the one dating it. When April crosses paths with the Scoobies, they have to track down Warren before her search results in broken bones as well as broken hearts.
Hear us discuss…
- Way to go, Joyce, going on a date with a human!
- However gross you think this is, it’s worse
- Joss Whedon sure loves stories about reprogramming women
- Buffy, you didn’t fail a girlfriend test. Riley failed the boyfriend test. A lot.
- What are the chances Spike’s business with Warren won’t be creepy?
Trigger warning
Misogyny
