What if in Two to Go, Willow had made it through the police station and killed them both right then and there?
Would she have stopped? What would everyone's reactions be?
I was just thinking about it after Two to Go ended, and I do think she would have stopped her rampage had she killed them at the police station. Before she fueled on Rack and Giles and essentially let it take over her at that point. What's everyone else opinion?

It's hard to believe that she would have stopped after killing Andrew and Jonathan. She's so far gone by that point that it's likely that she would continue trying to alter her environment according to her will. With the Trio gone, she's removed her most pressing concern, but we know how much Willow likes to control things around her already - in this state, who knows what would seem justifiable to her, with the boundary of killing people already passed?

I'm glad that Willow did not succeed in her plan to take out Jonathan and Andrew. I can understand her wanting to go after Warren, he was, after all, directly responsible for the death of her girlfriend, and the almost death of her best friend, but trying to kill Andrew and Jonathan wasn't right as they had nothing to do with any of that. I'm glad Willow was stopped, but had she succeeded in killing Andrew and Jonathan, I don't think that would have been the end for her (hell, let's not forget she was even going to kill Dawn! Had Buffy not arrived when she did, I fear what may have happened!). Given Willow's thirst for vengeance and her overwhelming grief, I definitely believe she would have continued on her rampage, probably becoming all the more powerful. I think her rage and grief would have fueled her onward on a path of destruction indefinitely. I think had she continued, the need for avenging Tara's murder would have, after a while, got lost in the shadow of rage and pain. meaning, it would have eventually became about so much more, and the mere killings of Jonathan and Andrew would not have been enough to satisfy her (not sure if I explained that well but that's how I see it).Thankfully, Xander was there to put an end to the madness!

I don't think Willow would have stopped either but the Scoobs would have stopped her. Maybe this means Oz or Groo or Justine might have turned up in season 7 to join the Scoobs?
