Werewolves are Back!
19 April 2019
Warning: Spoilers
In "Unleashed", Angel and the firm must help a woman recently bitten by a werewolf with no idea of her upcoming transformation. This becomes a problem when a group of rich foodies kidnap her with the intention of eating her once she turns. Spike pleads with Fred for help turning him back into a physical being.

Definitely not the first werewolf-focused episode in the Buffy-verse but possibly its most inventive. I love the idea of a group of rich, adventurous foodies attempting to try to eat mythical creatures. It's a very cool concept. Nina's inclusion here also doesn't seem like a one-off. I expect we'll see her come back.

Spike doesn't have a lot to do with this episode but he's always on the border checking in on things, reminding us of his plight. I reckon a conclusion to his current ghost body will be coming sooner rather than later.
