Perhaps it's a bit too early for any REAL hypothesizing, but any thoughts as to
what the Big Bad may be? Because if the below isn't Spike's delusions, then I
think it's going to be pretty damn bad. What can compare, however, to a god?

Buffy the Vampire Slayer

Looks like a rough cut of “Lessons,” the Joss Whedon-penned seventh-season
opener is floating around. Much of what we’ve heard is confirmed, with a few
new wrinkles:

* The episode begins with a hooded figure in Istanbul attacking a
slayer-in-training.

* Spike is not only showing his dark roots, it appears that the new soul is
considerably more than he bargained for, and there is evidence that he’s
literally been trying to carve it out.

* Willow, keeping company with Giles in England, is still all magical, and does
not depart for Sunnydale in the opener (she’s supposed to rejoin the gang in
7.3). But her spidey-sense still picks up bad vibes from 6,000 miles away, in
Sunnydale, still home of the big brewwwwwin’ evil!

* As Sophomore “Buffy” scribe Drew Greenberg hinted a couple weeks ago,
bads from all seasons will appear in a single scene at the end of 7.1. The
morphing sequence, sadly, can only be read through the miracle of inviso-text.
*Warren into Glory into Adam into Mayor Wilkins into Drusilla into The Master
into Buffy the Vampire Slayer*. It might be Spike’s delusion, but did Spike
meet Wilkins in season three?

Additionally, word is now out that 7.5 will be titled “Anya,” and delve
into the vengeance demon’s history, including her relationship with Olaf the
massive hammer-weilding troll and the origins of her bunny phobias. (This is
also the one with the musical Anya flashback to “Once More With Feeling.”)
Xander’s ex also continues to exhibit little enthusiasm as she returns to her
old vengeance-dealing vocation

Am I the only one who doesn't want to know why Anya's afraid of bunnies? At this point that's the only thing keeping a close to being overused quirk funny, the fact that there is no good reason for it.
