I love this episode! Evil Willow truly evil! The way she was trying to get to Jonathan and Andrew whilst they were in prison was soooo cool and must have been terrifying for the boys. The car chase was great too. And the appearance from Giles at the end "I'd like to test that theory". So good!
The whole episode is amazing!
10/10

As much as hyped I was for Villains, this episode - while still being good - has few moments that feel like time fill ups and nothing less and few scenes that make no sense.
First of all, last episode Buffy swore she won't let Willow cross the line and kill Warren, but now she says the same thing about Jonathan and Andrew - so now killing Warren isn't crossing the line any more?
Xander's character been built up since season 5, showing us how much he involved, yet now they keep shoving up our throats the fact he is a looser.
Buffy and Willow fight, was cool but a bit forced because the reason for them fighting wasn't very convincing...nothing like the Glory and Buffy's fight in season 5, or Buffy Vs Adam in season 4 (and I'm not even gonna start talking about Faith)...it felt like the writers just wanted to put Buffy against Willow.
But seeing Giles in the last moment of the episode was worth all of these little issues. It was totally unexpected and cool. ;D
IMO, 7.5/10

I wasn't really feeling the dark Willow arc ever. I was just played too campy for my tastes. With out a good murder like the previous ep we're stuck with annoying "Wise-Cracking Willow", and as Loir said above, Buffy vs Willow was just staged for the fight itself and played likea shitty fanboy script. Giles at the end was nice (cause oh god did I miss Giles)
6-7/10

And I see what you mean about the buffy vs willow fight...but tbh Im not massively annoyed by it cos I found it so entertaining anyways.lol. But I would have prefer to have seen less of their fight and more of the fight between willow and giles...but that was the next episode so I cant really comment on that. 8/10
