Coax seems to be hitting some kind of critical mass this week. Not only are reliable sources offering confirmations on the "Star Trek" story, but now we get this utterly unsubstanciated bit of business on "Buffy" and "Angel." I don't know the source. I've no idea if this is anything but a hoax. I get bogus "spoilers" all the time. Why am I posting this one? Because I swear I can feel the Hand of Whedon in it. (If this all turns out to be bullshit, I promise I will never post another rumor on gut instinct alone. But if it's not...) Please take note, if this stuff is true, THERE ARE MAJOR LONG-TERM SPOILERS AHEAD THAT COUILD RUIN THE REST OF THIS SEASON'S "BUFFY" AND "ANGEL" FOR YOU!!! Here we go...
Harold from Chicago here. Love your column and your support of Buffy. I thought you might find this interesting. A good friend of mine's wife works on the Buffy fan magazine and was at a cast party a couple of weeks ago. Apparently the final arc of the season will have Spike captured and tortured by Glory to find out what he knows about the Key. Spike in true Scooby fashion will refuse to break and Buffy posing as the imitation Buffy will know of it and give Spike an unexpected and steamy reward. My friend would tell me nothing else of Buffy not wanting to ruin some surprises.
Although he did tell me that the talk going around the set of Buffy was that Angel did indeed lose his soul after his night with Darla and was pretending to be the good ole Angel once more. Looking back at last week's episode it would look like the clues for that was indeed present. I hope it turns out to be true because the resolution of that arc was lame in the extreme. Anyway I hope this is information you can use.
Again, don't know this guy. His source could have gotten it wrong. And yet...
I warn you not to defy me!
