This is the episode, right here, where I fell completely in love with season 6. This is/was one of the absolute best representations of clinical depression in a TV series ever. Psychomotor retardation, anhedonia, emotional blunting, sleep issues, all of it so damn accurate to actual depression it's amazing to see.

Glory's in particular was a Hell dimension. So it seemed pretty likely that's where Buffy would have ended up when she jumped. :(

They didn't stop to consider that it was a selfless sacrifice after many years of saving lives; they just thought she entered that portal directly into a hell dimension and was stuck there.
