  • Description: According to Yonekura, this episode is a poignant critique of power systems argued via a fairy-tale arc that utilizes the power of symbols and archetypes, especially that of the witch. Inspired by the management fable The Ant and the Elephant: Leadership for the Self (2004), Albright posits that "The leadership lessons that Buffy learns and imparts are not only still relevant, but more progressive than those from a number of management books still on bestseller lists." The first two papers examined the mind and the soul, with Angel's quest for redemption experienced in the soul and River's liminality primarily within the mind. When joined together, the three presentations presented a compelling mind/body/soul analysis of suffering, its role, its purpose, and its experiences.
