Are there any plot arcs, or missed opportunities from any TV series that were abandoned that you think should've been picked up or continued? (lemm.ee)

In Buffy the Vampire Slayer there is a plotline that to my knowledge never gets fleshed out. Giles gets a visit from an old frenemy named Ethan Rayne. They have nicknames for each other that are supposed to be a secret. Giles is Ripper and I don't remember what Ethan's was. They have some shared tattoo of a symbol and there's some sort of spell craft involved?

Anyway, Ethan comes back a few times but they never really explain the whole thing.

I thought they explained that they did punk things and took it in turns to get possessed by a demon or something

Maybe they did. I just remember it feeling unresolved. I'm bad at remembering details of a show anyway
