Spoiler Slayer

Final update for the day, nearing Midnight and still no chock-full-o-details Wildfeed. Herc did post his review on AICN. I'm going to wait until morning, then go ahead and do the confirmation for 'All The Way'. It's all pretty much confirmed, and I have to say that Herc is still dead on the money. BAPS is doing a good job as well, and we ended up with another week of good spoilage. I'm going to add the D'Hoffryn spoiler as false, as soon as I either see the episode or get some independent confirmation. The only other bad spoilage that was out there was Wanda, who said that Dawn would be attacked by her vampy boyfriend when she was asleep, and then get dusted. But since I never stuck it into the Spoiler Slayer page, I'm not going to tag her for it.

I went and pulled my tapes of Season Four. The talisman that D'Hoffryn gave Willow is a golden coin/medallion, however I find it highly unlikely that it would just be lying around the Magic Box. For one, Willow obviously knows the power that it holds and wouldn't sell or leave it out in the open. Also, there are no direct references to it in the actual episode from what I can tell. Finally, and most importantly, even if Dawn has the talisman it probably wouldn't do her any good. Is she a wronged woman, No. Does she possess spellcasting abilities, No. Spells and anger were what attracted D'Hoffryn to both Anya and Willow, so even if Dawn did run into him, why would he offer her anything. My take is that it's just a variation on the same rumor that went around last year, about Anya finding the Talisman and becoming a Vengeance Demon again. I don't think it's anything to be too concerned about.
