"To Be or Not to Be"
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Season 5, Episode 17
Summary: After "The Body," Buffy and friends see Joyce's ghost, who tells Buffy that she was murdered by Giles. Buffy, with the help of Tara, sets out for revenge. It seems something is rotten in the state of Sunnydale and that the Scoobies are fitting the roles of Shakespeare's Hamlet quite nicely.
Disclaimer: The plot belongs to Shakespeare and the characters to Joss Whedon. I merely blended the two together and wrote the dialogue. Please don't sue me 'cause my parents would kill me.
Author's Note: I wrote this as an assignment for my English class. For my final project on Hamlet, I adapted the plot of the famous play to Buffy and the rest of the show. I know there are some weak spots, but just use your imagination and take this for what it is. I had to make some male parts in Hamlet, female Buffy parts. Also, I obviously had to ignore the Claudius/Gertrude romance because Willow and Giles are not very plausible. Thanks and enjoy reading. Reviews greatly appreciated.
