interesting the way Joyce is showing Buffy the value of Spike.  Buffy's improved relationship with S is pretty thin in the show when you think about it.
 ITA.  In Intervention she tells him that she won't what he did in protecting Dawn from Glory's discovery and then doesn't do much except use him as added muscle (and demand the other accept him as that).  I think they could have had her soften a bit towards him to build up the relationship she had when she returns from the graver and they start a friendship (prior to the sex).
