Buffy is back from New Angeles (IYKYK) ready to get her life back on track, but everyone is acting weird, and not in the usual Sunnydale kind of way. Joyce is trying way too hard with Buffy, while Giles, Willow, and Xander are treating her like she has the plague, (no doubt from Joyce’s shitty comments from last week’s episode. #BadChoiceJoyce). Joyce tries to get Buffy back to school, but of course Principal Snyder is putting up a fight and getting all tingly in the process (EW! Get a room you gross little man!). The Scoobs attempt to bury their resentment of Buffy’s time in #NewAngeles by throwing a “Welcome Back Bash” chock full of both ‘Hoot’ and a dash of ‘Nanny’.

In what may be one of the most disastrous house parties ever, Buffy feels not so welcome at her ‘Welcome Home Hootenanny!” The Scoobs are forced to confront more than just the buried elephant in the room when Joyce’s unfortunate home decor starts literally raising the dead and drawing hordes of zombies. Whose mask brings all the zombies to the yard? Thieving Joyce!!! That’s who!!

Rewatch, Listen and laugh with us as we get an episode full of misery-concealing quippy one liners, the origin moment for #goodChoiceJoyce, and a #RipperFIREemoji moment that left Alaina on the floor… Literally!
