   Body swap sex and issues of consent in B

   In the Season 4 episode "This Year's Girl," Faith (Eliza Dushku) wakes up   
   from the coma Buffy  put her in at the end of their knockdown, drag-out   
   final fight in the Season 3 finale. A device Faith has been gifted by the   
   now-dead Mayor allows her to switch bodies with Buffy; before Faith gets out   
   of Sunnydale, she wants to have some fun with the person she considers to be   
   the epitome of a “good girl.”   
      
   Crimped hair, leather pants and dancing provocatively are all on the agenda.   
   Faith has unfinished business with her former friend; she feels like   
   everything has been taken from her, so what better way to get her own form   
   of revenge than to screw Buffy's boyfriend? By all appearances, the woman   
   that seduces Riley is his girlfriend, a point he makes when Buffy is back in   
   her own body and she realizes he slept with Faith. "I slept with you," he   
   retorts.   
      
   Earlier, Faith has asked Riley, “What do you want to do with this body? What   
   nasty little desire have you been itching to try out?” She tries to get him   
   to indulge in some “bad girl” role-playing. He demures, he doesn't want to   
   play games but instead make love like they normally do. A post-coital   
   embrace causes Faith to spiral; her time in Buffy’s body is not quite the   
   fun release she was hoping for. Instead, it dredges up old insecurities and   
   her issues with intimate affection, not just in terms of sex; in an earlier   
   scene, she is also unnerved by a hug from Buffy's mother, Joyce.   
      
   Buffy’s relationship with Riley is relatively new at this point; they have   
   only slept together for the first time a few episodes prior to this.   
   However, in the grand scheme of things, the betrayal levels are low and   
   Riley doesn’t even seem that weirded out by the whole thing. In other   
   episodes, their hot and horny post-slaying antics are entwined with a   
   different kind of demon. It's still not as bad as that time when Buffy lost   
   her virginity and her boyfriend lost his soul.   
      
   Even though Faith-as-Buffy looked and acted differently, Riley isn’t held   
   accountable for his mistake, and in the "Angel and Faith" Season 10 comic   
   Faith does apologize to Riley for this deception.
