I haven't been following, but when did Dawn and Xander kick Buffy out??? o_O;;

I don't know why but that kind of feels like a douchy thing for them to do on their part after all she's done for them.

She moved out and got a flat of her own, with new flatmates. She was arrested reasonably fairly, and had no particular reason to suspect demonic or other evil influence in the police, but skipped out anyway, and decides not to go back to her known address, but instead to her sister and best friend's, which'll be the very next place that the police check (because Buffy was crashing there recently anyway), which could lead to Dawn and Xander being arrested for harbouring a fugitive. If there's any douchyness going on, I'd say it was on Buffy's part. She seems to understand and accept this and leaves without pleading. The way I read that exchange was that if she'd said "no, i'm sorry, this is really important", they'd have said "oh, ok then"

Thanks for the info. Like I said I haven't been following. Last I read of Buffy was the end of season 8 where she destroyed all magic and everyone was pissed as hell at her, and her slayer army was dissolved.

a few months beforehand she ws victimized by a worldwide conspiracy. She's right to be jumpy.

Sure, but going straight to Dawn and Xander would be putting them in danger too. I just didn't read her as being being that stressed about it. Perhaps she was mostly wanting to avoid awkward questions from her new flatmates!
