One of the things I found odd and unbelievable about "The Body" was the ambulance team driving off and leaving a teenage girl, who's obviously in shock, alone with the open-eyed, gaped-mouth corpse of her mother lying on the floor. I don't buy "We've got another call to take, so we have to go now." I've never heard of a paramedic doing such a thing -- if Joyce had begun to revive while they received the new call, their dispatcher would have found someone else to take the new assignment, so why couldn't they have told Dispatch that they were busy giving aid to a traumatized young girl? I see it as yet another case of Whedon ignoring logic in order to hike up the angst and drama -- and it didn't work, because the lack of logic destroyed any sense of angst for me!
