*
* The slug-scented candles Buffy mentioned in "Life Serial" -- Anya still hasn't been able to sell them.
* Cough-Snark-Cough
* Did We Just Have Tea with Cthulhu?: Spike unexpectedly turns up at Buffy's birthday bash with Clem, clearly playing with the idea of fitting into Buffy's 'normal' world as a proper boyfriend would.
* Does This Remind You of Anything?
*
* Buffy tells Tara she's not ready to "come out" to her friends about Spuffy. She's all stay-inny.
* Double Entendre: Spike works in plenty of suggestive comments to Buffy.
* Fluffy the Terrible: The Loose-Skinned Demon from "Life Serial" returns as 'Clement'. Just call him Clem.
* Game Face: "Wish granted."
* Gilligan Cut
* Get-Out-Get-Out-GET OUT!
* Go Through Me: Tara re Anya trying to pressure Willow to make a spell.
* Hoist By Their Own Petard: The demon gets stabbed on its own sword. Halfrek gets trapped by her own spell.
* Hollywood Healing: Averted; Spike still has bruises from the beating he got from Buffy in the previous episode.
* Horror Doesn't Settle for Simple Tuesday: Spike suggests Buffy not celebrate her birthday, as bad things always seem to happen. Given that Buffy doesn't in Season 7, she's clearly taken this advice to heart.
* I Need a Freaking Drink: A non-alcoholic version where Tara grabs a cup of water off Buffy after her fumbled meeting with Willow.
* Insistent Terminology: They're justice demons, not vengeance demons. Oh, right.
* Interrupted Intimacy: Deliberately by Tara on Buffy/Spike.
* Jackass Genie: Halfrek has no trouble trapping her old friend Anya for eternity.
* The Last of These Is Not Like the Others: The weapons chest has slots for basic weapons, plus a few non-basic ones and a handsome CD holder.
* Limited Social Circle: Buffy invites Sophie, a friend from work, to her birthday party.
* Literary Allusion Title: The title is taken from J. G. Ballard's Empire of the Sun, where at the end of the story a young man comes to this realization about his current relationship with his family; the teacher's line about "things Jim lost during his years in Shanghai and things he gained" implies that Dawn's class is studying the book.
* Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Dawn makes a wish to a stranger. Buffy brings home the demon's sword as a souvenir. Tara's 'release' spell only frees the demon from the sword.
* Oh Crap: Anya says that only a vengeance demon can break her own spell. Halfrek promptly materialises...and gets run through with a sword by the demon.
* Only a Flesh Wound: ...but it doesn't kill her.
* On Second Thought: Everyone is trying to leave the house as they've got to go to work, including Sophie who's got a double shift at the Doublemeat Palace. She thinks about that for a moment and concludes she's actually all right where she is.
* Punctuated Pounding: Anya helping Buffy beat up the demon.
* Red Shirt: Homaged with the expendable guest star who gets stabbed while wearing a red polo shirt.
* Sarcasm Mode
* Slumber Party: Buffy's birthday bash turns into this -- it's only the next morning they find out why.
* Suspiciously Specific Denial: Anya and Xander have invited a friend to Buffy's party.
* Sticky Fingers: Dawn's kleptomania is revealed when Anya searches her room.
* Talk About That Thing: Buffy makes her excuses when Tara meets Willow.
* Villain Teleportation: The demon can travel through walls and the ground.
* The Wallflower: Dawn
* Weirdness Censor: Clem 'has a bad skin condition'.
* You Look Familiar: Halfrek is Cecily, the woman who rejected Spike/William's proposal in "Fool for Love".
* You're Insane!
