Old news I know, but I just spotted it - apparently Robia LaMorte was
slated to appear in Giles' dream scene in 'Restless', but had other
commitments. It was a short scene; they couldn't bend a schedule here
or there? (I'm all the more bummed 'cause I don't remember anything
she was in on or around then).

I can only assume she'd have been doing pretty much what Phinea Oruche
was...now Olivia seems quite the nice girl - rather winning, really -
but she never came off as more to Giles than an orgasm friend (as Anya
put it so tactfully). While that scene was quite effective, it would
have been an out-of-the-park home run with Jenny.

What's more, as a farewell appearance, it would have gotten the taste
of Jenny-as-First Evil out of my mouth - and possibly hers (it's old
news how much she disliked playing it).

Absolutely right! It would have been nice... That was so
unfair... Olivia came out of nowhere and she is given the
privilege to guest in the two best episodes of the entire
series?! That was kind of unfair... Robia more than earned
the right to appear on at least one of the two best (she
was a decisive element in making Passion one of the top-10
of the series, of course... But still)
