Aliens In A Spaceship? I don't know her.

While the above mentioned episode from season 2 is great and a fan favorite, this episode is my favorite of the entire series.

I mean, who doesn't love explosions, corruption from on high and computer chip nipple rings?

:) Emily's range and ability as an actor is really showcased here, and David is giving serious season 2 Angel vibes, and I'm here for all of it.

That's not to say this episode doesn't have its issues...some elements of the story are annoyingly predictable. However, what the writers lacked in originality on some fronts, they completely made up for in other areas by creating an episode where the narrative was interesting & visually compelling.

The Ghost Killer arc is...meh. But what it eventually culminates into between this episode and Season 10 episode 1, turns out to be a riveting and pivotal story arc for the entire series.
