10 Most Satisfying Buffy The Vampire Slayer Moments
8. Buffy Takes Down Caleb (Season 7, Episode 21 And 22)
In the eighteenth episode of Season 7, we’re introduced to Caleb, a misogynistic priest who’s in cahoots with the First Evil. Using his advanced strength, Caleb murders several Potential Slayers when our heroes infiltrate the vineyard.
He continues to terrorise the gang throughout the rest of the season, and no one – not even Buffy – is capable of taking him down… at least until she gets her hands on the Scythe. Using this legendary weapon, the Slayer battles against the priest at the end of the penultimate episode, and – with some help from Angel – she emerges victorious.
But the battle isn't over yet. At the start of the season finale, Caleb gets back to his feet but ends up being sliced in half with the Scythe. It’s a brutal end for a despicable character, and one of the most triumphant moments in the show. No matter how many times you rewatch this scene, it never fails to be satisfying.
