Why this must be read:
Poor Riley. Stuck as re-bound follow-up guy to the One True Love - both to Buffy herself and to the audience. And it certainly didn't help that he was saddled at first with an unfortunate haircut and not much of a personality. Fortunately, by the end of the fourth season he'd developed somewhat, and then Marina stepped in to give him a long-overdue solo moment.

This is Riley in the weeks following Restless. Riley, who's had his world turned upside down, going home to Iowa to try and pull himself together, and finding, like many a soldier before him, that it's not always that easy.
