I didn't spot the significance of the unmade bed (or I just assumed Spike is messy) but I did wonder, "Is there only the one bathroom on the ship, or else why did Buffy choose to use Spike's personal one?" :-)
And yes, the line about higher education hit me as well. The other big thing I noticed was Buffy's comment to him "Like Dawn is a Key?" - I think that lays to rest the idea that Dawn's Keyness is a long-forgotten and abandoned storyline. They're reminding us of it too often. Also, Xander just talked about the two of them getting a place together, which is a sure sign her death is imminent. I just hope it's not permanent...
Finally, notice how Angel is all heroic and noble, saving the Japanese Slayers from the monster - but when he throws the head down, they get all splashed and messed up by its blood. I spy a metaphor there. :-)
