* BrokeYourArmPunchingOutCthulhu: Black-eyed Willow manages to cause Glory genuine pain...but that really just pisses her off. If Buffy hadn't shown up, Glory would've killed Willow.
* SmugSmiler: Glory when Tara reveals Dawn is the key.
* SuddenDownerEnding: The episode was already pretty grim, but looked to have a semi hopeful ending as Buffy, Dawn, Willow, and Tara sit down for lunch. Then Glory punches a hole in the wall and Tara reveals to her that Dawn is the Key.

* ActuallyPrettyFunny: Glory quips that they used to crucify witches as she's about to kill Willow for her failed assassination attempt. Buffy pulls a BigDamnHeroes moment and counters that "they used to bow down to gods." Glory can't help but chuckle at Buffy's joke.

* CurbstompCushion: Willow joins the growing number of Scoobies (alongside Spike and Buffy) who are a credible threat to Glory, by actually causing her pain. This foreshadows the coming episodes, where Glory becomes weaker as she and Ben merge, and more of the heroes can actually fight back against her in their own ways.
