After the gang struggle with using the Buffybot to patrol for vampires over the summer, Willow resurrects Buffy with a powerful spell. Although her friends believe that they have taken her out of Hell, Buffy had actually been in Heaven since her death – a fact that she initially only divulges to Spike and later reveals to her friends. She is therefore traumatized by her resurrection and this causes her to fall into a deep depression for most of the season. Dawn is happy to have her sister back, but Buffys depression causes Dawns feelings of alienation to lead to kleptomania.
