Penny and Kara accompany Wesley on his undercover mission while Angel is consulting with the T-ish Magev and talk through the various guises in play. Along they way they veer off into a myriad of subjects, including celebrity gossip, Cute Knut, growth spurts, the show’s depictions of wealth, magical business names, tall privilege, the “that guy” phenomenon, The Sandlot, EMDR, demon karaoke song choices, and birthday parties.

“Yep. It's not that vampires don't photograph, it's just that they don't photograph well.”

Penny, Becky and Kara enjoy a trip to 1952 to experience some grade A paranoia in an overtly political episode with a film noir flashback. The conversation ranges from HUAC to iMac laptops and tangents include transparent Y2K tech, inflatable furniture, retro fashion trends, shame, Community, Film Noir tropes, femmes fatale, earworms, New Kids on the Block, Trapper Keepers, What We Do in the Shadows, and friendship.

Next time we’ll tackle BTVS Season 5, Episode 2, “Real Me.”
