Re: Ohhh fun - Guessing Who Twilight is

Andrew is a plausible choice. We've already seen evidence of Andrew's ability to be manipulative and duplicitious on Angel.
Also Andrew has a superhero fetish - so the costume makes sense. And he's been a villian before. Plus - Buffy mentioned in this issue that the slayers robbing banks and using guns had been under Andrew's watch. But unlike Riley, Andrew has never lead anyone and he is not a strategist. Nor does he have military training nor has he ever been part of the military.

Another option is Caleb. I *really* hope it isn't Caleb. Too obvious. Been there, done that. And honestly wasn't a resurrected skinless Warren enough? Do we need two resurrected misogynistic bad guys from the series? That said, I wouldn't be suprised if they did that. Disappointed. But not surprised. On the other hand - not sure Caleb is plausible. The military clearly trusts Twilight - leading me to believe he may be one of their own. Or at the very least appear to be one of their own. The military is not in the habit of trusting just anyone. And Riley remember has been part of the military for a long time, also Riley was a psychology T.A.

My favorite? One that no one else has appeared to come up with - Buffy's long absent father. Who is a lot like Riley in Buffy's life - in that he disappears from it and is not killed. He just leaves her. And much like Riley, we don't know much about him.
Actually we know less about her father than anyone else. But...I don't think Whedon has thought of this either and I'd be really surprised if Twilight turned out to be her father. It would be fun for all sorts of reasons, but I'm not sure it has occurred to the writer to do it.

My hunch? He's either someone lame like Caleb, Graham, Tucker, or someone we have never seen. If he's someone we haven't seen - that would mean the rumored reveal has got to be something else. Regardless of what it is, I hope it's not lame or worse non-existent - because there is nothing worse than disappointed comics fans, okay, wait, there is...disappointed tv fans. ;-)
