My predecessor, Mr. Flutie, may have gone in for all that touchy-feely relating nonsense... but he was eaten.

Warning: Spoilers
The Puppet Show is about someone or something harvesting organs from participants in the talent show, the lead suspect's a Ventriloquist's dummy.

A humorous and clever episode, with a lot happening. The segment that sticks with me the most, when Buffy, Xander and Willow are having a bit of fun at Giles's expense and the new principal overhears and makes them join the talent show. Meanwhile, the whole time a girl has been playing the tuba in an unexciting monotone solo. Morgan and Sid then arrive and it's uplifting and funny. The arrangement superb. Cutting it pretty close, Xander clutch, not given the credit deserved here.
