i liked the analogy itself, and it would have been very apt, had she not implied at the end that, no matter what happens, it would always be angel she went back to... that annoyed me. it was implied even more so at the end of the novellisation, too.
i get why angel turned up; joss had to do that or fear the wrath of the b/a shippers. seriously, only joss would put himself in that sort of position so late into the final series. i just think he could have handled the angel-finding-out-about-spike thing more... delicately? i liked spike seeing it, though; i mean, not that he had to see it, just that it resulted in him and buffy actually having what may constitute an adult conversation... :)
