Anya's fruit punch speech, but the bit that got me was when Buffy said ''They said we're not supposed to move the body'' thats when it finally hits her - it is just a body its not her mum anymore because before the woman over the phone asks ''The body is cold?'' and Buffy shouts ''No my mum'' it just gets me its the way she is in total shock that she has just refered to her mum as a body, and the fact that she now has to deal with the fact that she is gone :(

I agree with Natalie, it's that bit where Buffy shouts 'they told us not to move the body!' and suddenly realises that she's just accepted that her mother is gone.

I definitely agree with Natalie and Abbeh. That's when I really start to cry.

I had a hard time choosing between Anya's speech & telling Dawn. I think they're both wonderfully done & give a lot of insight into the characters. I can relate to Dawn because that's how I reacted when my mom died, but I think Anya's speech is genius & really puts death into perspective. Sometimes you just gotta step out of the box to really see things.
