Not that you said this but Buffy isn't stupid. She just rarely is put in a situation where she needs to resort to thinking.

This is, I think, typical of Whedon's fiction in general. Thinkers do not come off well on his shows, with the possible exception of Giles, but the doers are not therefore morons [1]. They can think, they just resist the temptation.

Say, this seems to tie into something Nancy once said. Let me think about this....

1: With the possible exception of Jayne.
