I noticed in the opening credits that Marti Noxon was in charge of this episode, but until
cindergalpointed it out, I hadn't made the connection. Now it makes so much more sense why there was out-of-nowhere domestic abuse (with the abused going back to the abuser), how the 'girls' misinterpreted their assignment to turn a song about victimization into empowerment by doing... Cell Block Tango (Though I did enjoy Roz pointing out that the assignment wasn't to find crazy ladies in their underwear singing about killing people). Er... yeah.
Couldn't you guys have simply copied "Being Erica" as they actually did a pretty good job of the actual assignment of recognizing how abuse is often subliminal in pop.
)
And how else could it possibly end but in a literal ode to tears?
Hi Marti!
Hee!

And wow--never noticed...all that in that song before :P I only ever noticed the subliminal sexual messages in pop music of my childhood.
