HEY.
I'M BEN. WE HAD ALGEBRA 2 TOGETHER LAST YEAR.
SORRY, I PRETTY MUCH REPRESS ANYTHING MATH RELATED.
MISS JACKSON. SECOND PERIOD.
YOU SAT IN THE SEAT 3 OVER, 1 BEHIND.
OH, YEAH, I REMEMBER NOW.
IT'S THE ONE WITH THE DESKS AND THE CHALKBOARDS
AND PENCILS AND STUFF, RIGHT?
THAT'S THE ONE.
LIKE A STEEL TRAP.
SO I WAS WONDERING--
YOU KNOW THE DANCE TOMORROW NIGHT? ARE YOU GOING?
YOU MEAN THE SADIE HAWKINS THING?
THE DEAL WHERE THE GIRLS ASK THE BOYS?
YEAH. AND I THOUGHT MAYBE, YOU KNOW, IF YOU'RE FREE,
YOU MIGHT ASK ME.
OH, GOSH.
OH, HEY, HEY-- DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.
NO, YOU SEEM LIKE A REALLY GREAT GUY.
IT'S ME. I'M NOT SEEING ANYBODY.
EVER AGAIN ACTUALLY.
OH, THAT'S TOO BAD.
OK, WELL, I'D BETTER--

YOU'VE BEEN DOING THAT A LOT--
PATROLLING AND SACKING.
IN FACT, YOU'VE KINDA BEEN ALL WORK AND NO PLAY BUFFY.
I PLAY. I HAVE BIG FUN.
I CAME HERE TONIGHT, DIDN'T I?
YOU CAME, YOU SAW, YOU REJECTED.
YOU MEAN THAT GUY?
JUST NOT IN DATE MODE RIGHT NOW.
WELL, MAYBE YOU NEED TO DATE TO GET IN DATE MODE.
I DON'T THINK I'M READY FOR THAT, WILL.
YOU'RE THINKING TOO MUCH.
MAYBE YOU NEED TO BE IMPULSIVE.
IMPULSIVE?
DO YOU REMEMBER MY EX-BOYFRIEND, THE VAMPIRE?
I SLEPT WITH HIM, HE LOST HIS SOUL,
NOW MY BOYFRIEND'S GONE FOREVER
AND THE DEMON THAT WEARS HIS FACE IS KILLING MY FRIENDS.
THE NEXT IMPULSIVE DECISION I MAKE
WILL INVOLVE MY CHOICE OF DENTURES.
OK, THE ANGEL THING WENT BADLY.
I'M ONBOARD WITH THAT, BUT THAT'S NOT YOUR FAULT.
AND ANYWAYS, LOVE ISN'T ALWAYS LIKE THAT.
LOVE CAN BE NICE.
COME BACK HERE. WE'RE NOT FINISHED.
YOU DON'T CARE ANYMORE, IS THAT IT?
IT DOESN'T MATTER. IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT I FEEL.
THEN TELL ME YOU DON'T LOVE ME.
SAY IT!
WILL THAT HELP? IS THAT WHAT YOU NEED TO HEAR?
I DON'T.
I DON'T, NOW LET ME GO.
NO. A PERSON DOESN'T JUST WAKE UP ONE DAY
AND STOP LOVING SOMEBODY.
LOVE IS FOREVER.
[HOWLING]
[ROCK MUSIC PLAYING]
I'M NOT AFRAID TO USE IT. I SWEAR.
IF I CAN'T BE WITH YOU-- HEY!
Girl: OH, MY GOD.
DON'T WALK AWAY FROM ME, BITCH!
WH-WHAT HAPPENED?
WHAT HAPPENED? YOU JUST WENT OJ ON YOUR GIRLFRIEND.
THIS IS NUTS.
I DON'T KNOW WHY I GOT SO MAD.
BECAUSE YOU'RE A JERK.
HE'S NOT.
WE WEREN'T EVEN FIGHTING A FEW MINUTES AGO.
WE WEREN'T. I SWEAR TO GOD.
IF YOU WEREN'T FIGHTING, THEN WHY'D YOU HAVE A GUN?
I DON'T KNOW. I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE I GOT IT.
I DON'T SEE ANY GUN.
I'M SURE YOU KNOW WHY I ASKED YOU HERE.
TO THANK ME?
THAT'S RIGHT, I WANT TO THANK YOU.
WHAT WOULD SUNNYDALE HIGH DO WITHOUT YOU AROUND
TO INCITE MAYHEM, CHAOS, AND DISORDER?
I DON'T INCITE. I STOPPED THAT BOY
FROM KILLING HIS GIRLFRIEND. ASK HIM.
ASK THE JANITOR.
PEOPLE CAN BE COERCED, SUMMERS.
I'M NO STRANGER TO CONSPIRACY. I SAW JFK.
I'M A TRUTH SEEKER. I'VE GOT A MISSING GUN
AND 2 CONFUSED KIDS ON MY HANDS.
PIECES OF THE PUZZLE.
AND I'M GOING TO LOOK AT ALL THE PIECES CAREFULLY AND RATIONALLY,
AND I'M GOING TO KEEP LOOKING
UNTIL I KNOW EXACTLY HOW THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT.
[INTERCOM BUZZES] Woman: MR. SNYDER...
BILLY CRANDALL CHAINED HIMSELF TO THE SNACK MACHINE AGAIN.
PATHETIC, LITTLE, NO-LIFE VEGAN.
NOT SO FAST, MISSY. I'M NOT DONE WITH YOU YET.
YOU STINK OF LIES.
SO FOR NEXT TIME, READ THE CHAPTERS
ON INFORMATION GROUPING AND BINARY CODING.
I BET YOU'LL THINK CODING IS PRETTY COOL.
I MEAN, IF YOU FIND 2-DIGIT MULTI-STACKED CONVERSIONS
AND PRIMARY NUMBER CLUSTERS A BIG HOOT.
[CLASS LAUGHS]
GILES, I MADE THEM LAUGH. DID YOU HEAR?
I DID THE JOKE THING.
YES, YES, SO IT SEEMS.
I MEAN, YOU DID, INDEED.
GOOD--GOOD SHOW.
I JUST STOPPED BY TO SEE IF YOU NEEDED ANY ASSISTANCE,
BUT YOU SEEM TO HAVE THINGS QUITE UNDER CONTROL.
WELL, I HAD GOOD LESSON PLANS.
MS. CALENDAR HAD THEM ON HER COMPUTER.
YES, YES, SHE WAS VERY, UM, DEDICATED.
AND I FOUND A BUNCH OF FILES AND INTERNET SITES
ON PAGANISM AND MAGIC AND STUFF.
OH.
YES, IT'S REALLY INTERESTING.
AND, UH, I FOUND THIS IN HER DRAWER.
SHE TOLD ME IT WAS A ROSE QUARTZ.
AND IT HAS HEALING POWERS.
I THOUGHT SHE'D WANT YOU TO HAVE IT.
THANK YOU, WILLOW, THAT'S--
THAT'S VERY THOUGHTFUL OF YOU.
BEFORE 1935, THE NEW DEAL FOCUSED ON REVITALIZING
STRICKEN BUSINESS AND AGRICULTURAL COMMUNITIES.
AND THE NEW DEAL ALSO TRIED TO REGULATE
THE NATION'S FINANCIAL HIERARCHY
TO AVOID ANOTHER DISASTER LIKE THE 1929 STOCK MARKET CRASH.
Woman: DON'T FORGET YOUR ASSIGNMENTS ARE DUE ON FRIDAY, CLASS.
I TOLD MS. HALL WE'D GO HELP DECORATE THE GYM.
WHO ARE YOU TAKING?
DAVID SAID YES.
OH, YOU'RE KIDDING. HE'S SO DREAMY.
THANK YOU, JAMES.
HOW ARE YOU ENJOYING THAT BOOK I LOANED YOU?
THE HEMINGWAY.
James: I LIKE IT VERY MUCH.
IT'S HONEST.
YES, IT'S, UM,
IT'S BASED ON A TRUE STORY, ACTUALLY.
HE FELL IN LOVE WITH HIS--
Teacher: ...HOURS, CHILD LABOR,
AND COLLECTIVE BARGAINING.
[CLASS LAUGHS]
OH, MY GOD!
DID YOU SEE WHAT HE WROTE?
I'M TELLING YOU, SOMETHING WEIRD IS GOING ON.
ISN'T THAT OUR SCHOOL MOTTO?
PRETTY MUCH, BUT I DON'T KNOW.
THIS TIME IT BUGS ME.
I DON'T WANT TO POOPOO YOUR WIGGINS,
BUT A DOMESTIC DISPUTE, A LITTLE CASE OF CHALKBOARD TOURETTE'S?
ALL SOUNDS LIKE HELLMOUTH LITE TO ME. AAH!
AAH!
XANDER, WHAT HAPPENED?
DID CORDELIA WIN ANOTHER ROUND IN THE BROOM CLOSET?
YOU'RE JUST A BIG BUCKET OF FUNNY, WILL.
I'LL HAVE YOU KNOW I WAS JUST ACCOSTED BY SOME KIND OF,
UM, LOCKER MONSTER.
LOCH NESS MONSTER?
LOCKER MONSTER IS WHAT HE SAID,
BUT IT WASN'T REALLY A MONSTER.
IT WAS, LIKE, THIS BIG ARM THAT CAME OUT OF THE LOCKER,
BUT THEN WE OPENED IT AGAIN, IT WAS GONE. NOTHING.
THIS WAS RIGHT AFTER BUFFY'S HISTORY TEACHER
STARTS DOING SOME FREAKY CHANNELING THING IN CLASS.
OOH, SOUNDS LIKE PARANORMAL PHENOMENA.
A GHOST? COOL.
OH, NO, NO, NO, NO COOL.
THIS WAS NO WIMPY CHAIN RATTLER.
THIS WAS "I'M DEAD AS HELL AND I'M NOT GONNA TAKE IT ANYMORE."
DESPITE THE XANDER-SPEAK, THAT'S A FAIRLY ACCURATE DEFINITION OF A POLTERGEIST.
I DEFINED SOMETHING? ACCURATELY?
GUESS I'M DONE WITH THE BOOK LEARNING.
SO WE HAVE SOME BAD BOO ON OUR HANDS?
YES.
Willow: WELL, WHY IS IT HERE?
DOES IT JUST WANT TO SCARE PEOPLE?
UNFORTUNATELY, HE DOESN'T KNOW EXACTLY WHAT HE WANTS.
THAT'S THE TROUBLE.
SEE, MANY TIMES THE SPIRIT IS PLAGUED BY
ALL MANNER OF WORLDLY TROUBLES.
BEING DEAD, IT HAS NO WAY TO MAKE ITS PEACE.
SO IT LASHES OUT.
GROWING EVER MORE CONFUSED, EVER MORE ANGRY.
SO IT'S A NORMAL TEENAGER, ONLY DEAD.
WELL, WHAT CAN WE DO? IS THERE ANY WAY TO STOP IT?
THE ONLY TRIED AND TRUE WAY IS TO WORK OUT
WHAT UNRESOLVED ISSUES KEEP IT HERE, AND RESOLVE THEM.
FABULOUS. NOW WE'RE DR. LAURA FOR THE DECEASED.
ONLY IF WE CAN FIND OUT WHO THIS SPIRIT IS.
OR WAS.
WORKING LATE, MS. FRANK?
IT'S MY FAULT. LET MYSELF GET BEHIND.
IS IT OK TO WALK HERE, GEORGE?
IT IS GEORGE, RIGHT?
OH, YES, MA'AM, YOU GO AHEAD.
THANKS. YOU HAVE A NICE EVENING.
YOU, TOO. DRIVE SAFE.
OH, MS. FRANK.
YES?
YOU CAN'T MAKE ME DISAPPEAR JUST BECAUSE YOU SAY IT'S OVER.
THERE'S NO WAY WE CAN BE TOGETHER.
NO WAY PEOPLE WILL EVER UNDERSTAND. ACCEPT IT.
IS THAT WHAT THIS IS ABOUT?
WHAT OTHER PEOPLE THINK?
NO. I JUST WANT YOU TO BE ABLE TO HAVE
SOME KIND OF A NORMAL LIFE.
WE CAN NEVER HAVE THAT, DON'T YOU SEE?
I DON'T GIVE A DAMN ABOUT A NORMAL LIFE.
I'M GOING CRAZY NOT SEEING YOU.
I THINK ABOUT YOU EVERY MINUTE.
I KNOW, BUT...
BUT IT'S OVER.
IT HAS TO BE.
COME BACK HERE, WE'RE NOT FINISHED YET!
YOU DON'T CARE ANYMORE?
IS THAT IT?
IT DOESN'T MATTER-- IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT I FEEL.
THEN TELL ME YOU DON'T LOVE ME.
SAY IT!
WILL THAT HELP? IS THAT WHAT YOU HAVE TO HEAR?
I DON'T.
NOW LET ME GO.
NO. A PERSON DOESN'T JUST WAKE UP ONE DAY AND STOP LOVING SOMEBODY.
LOVE IS FOREVER.
George: I'M NOT AFRAID TO USE IT. I SWEAR.
IF I CAN'T BE WITH YOU--
Ms. Frank: OH, MY GOD.
George: DON'T WALK AWAY FROM ME, BITCH!
Female voice, whispers: I need you.
JENNY.
George: DON'T!
DON'T DO THAT, DAMN IT!
DON'T TALK TO ME LIKE I'M SOME DUMB--
[GUNSHOT]
WHAT'S GOING ON?
YOU JUST SHOT A WOMAN.
AND THIS-- THIS IS THE GARDEN.
WOW!
LOOK, JASMINE.
NIGHT BLOOMING.
LIKE US.
ANGEL, IT'S FAIRYLAND.
OOH!
IT'S PARADISE.
BIG WINDOWS, LOVELY GARDENS.
IT'LL BE PERFECT WHEN WE WANT
THE SUNLIGHT TO KILL US.
IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT, SPIKE, HIT THE STAIRS AND GO.
TAKE A STAND, MAN.
WELL, OUR OLD PLACE WAS JUST FINE
TILL YOU WENT AND HAD IT BURNED DOWN.
THINGS CHANGE, SPIKEY.
YOU GOTTA ROLL WITH THE PUNCHES.
WELL, ACTUALLY,
YOU PRETTY MUCH GOT THAT PART DOWN, HAVEN'T YOU?
VERY FUNNY, MATE.
WHAT CAN I SAY?
I JUST LOVE TO SEE YOU SMILE, BUDDY.
[GROWLS]
YEAH, YOU'RE A GIVER.
IT WAS JUST AS WITH THE COUPLE
YOU ENCOUNTERED THE OTHER NIGHT, BUFFY.
THE JANITOR REMEMBERED EVERYTHING.
HE KNEW HE'D KILLED THIS POOR WOMAN, BUT HE HAD NO IDEA WHY.
THEY HAD NO INTIMATE RELATIONSHIP.
WHAT ABOUT THE GUN?
DID YOU FIND IT?
NO, NO. THE POLICE, EVERYBODY--
WE SEARCHED HIGH AND LOW.
I THINK IT'S VERY CLEAR WHAT'S HAPPENING HERE.
FILL ME IN, THEN, 'CAUSE I'VE READ THE BOOK,
SEEN THE MOVIE, AND I'M STILL FUZZY ABOUT WHAT'S GOING ON.
IT'S JENNY.
WHAT?
YOU THINK SHE'S THE GHOST?
DON'T YOU SEE? SHE DIED HERE UNDER TRAGIC CIRCUMSTANCES
AND NOW SHE'S TRAPPED.
BUT WHAT ABOUT THE GUN?
I MEAN, ANGEL DIDN'T SHOOT MS. CALENDAR.
THE GUN IS INSIGNIFICANT.
IT'S THE VIOLENCE OF THE THING THAT MATTERS.
Buffy: I DON'T KNOW. THESE FIGHTS THESE COUPLES KEEP HAVING--
IT'S SORT OF SPECIFIC.
SHE'S RIGHT. IT'S A PATTERN THAT DOESN'T FIT
WITH THE WAY MS. CALENDAR DIED.
I APPRECIATE YOUR THOUGHTS ON THE MATTER
IN FACT, WELL, I ENCOURAGE YOU
TO ALWAYS CHALLENGE ME WHEN YOU FEEL IT'S APPROPRIATE.
YOU SHOULD NEVER BE COWED BY AUTHORITY.
EXCEPT, OF COURSE, IN THIS INSTANCE,
WHEN I AM CLEARLY RIGHT AND YOU ARE CLEARLY WRONG.
THIS IS FREAKY.
I DON'T REMEMBER EVER SEEING GILES BE THIS WEIRD.
I KNOW. HE'S USUALLY "INVESTIGATE THINGS
FROM EVERY BORING ANGLE" GUY.
NOW HE'S "I CLING ON TO MY ONE LAME IDEA" GUY. WHAT GIVES?
HE MISSES HER. HE CAN'T THINK.
JUST A LITTLE MORE FALLOUT FROM MY LOVE LIFE.
OK, BUT THIS GHOST STUFF IS SOMETHING ELSE.
LET ME DO A CROSS-CHECK ON OTHER SHOOTINGS AT THE SCHOOL.
YEAH, WE NEED SOME ALTERNATE GHOST THEORIES. WHAT DO WE KNOW?
DOG SPIT IS CLEANER THAN HUMAN.
BESIDES THAT?
OH, BOY, WE KNOW PLENTY.
IT SAYS, "A STUDENT MURDERED A TEACHER
ON THE NIGHT OF THE SADIE HAWKINS DANCE."
THE RUMOR WAS THEY WERE HAVING AN AFFAIR
AND SHE TRIED TO BREAK IT OFF.
AFTER HE KILLED HER, HE WENT INTO THE MUSIC ROOM
AND SHOT HIMSELF.
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WE HAVE A GHOST.
IT IS ONE OF THOSE 2, RIGHT?
IT ALL FITS--THE GUN, THE SADIE HAWKINS DANCE.
WHICH IS TONIGHT.
HOW COME WE'VE NEVER HEARD ABOUT
THIS MURDER-SUICIDE THING BEFORE?
WHEN DID IT HAPPEN?
1955.
HOW DID YOU KNOW?
Buffy: OK, HERE'S THE NEW STRANGENESS.
I DREAMT ABOUT THIS WOMAN, GRACE NEWMAN, THE OTHER DAY.
HER AND THIS GUY.
JIM STANLEY? HE'S THE ONE. HE DID IT.
YOUR DREAMS ARE GETTING WICKED ACCURATE, BUFF.
YOU WOULDN'T HAPPEN TO SEE ME COMING ACROSS SOME BIG CASH?
OR POSSIBLY KNOWING THE LOVE OF A WOMAN,
IN A FULL BODY SENSE?
HE COULDN'T MAKE HER LOVE HIM, SO HE KILLED HER.
SICKO.
Willow: HE LOOKS SO NORMAL IN HIS PICTURE.
HE WAS SMART, TOO.
HE MADE THE HONOR ROLL.
SMART.
HE KILLED A PERSON AND KILLED HIMSELF.
THOSE ARE PRETTY MUCH 2 OF THE DUMBEST THINGS YOU COULD DO.
I KNOW, BUT DON'T YOU FEEL KIND OF BAD FOR THEM?
SURE I FEEL LOUSY-- FOR HER.
HE'S A MURDERER AND HE SHOULD PAY FOR IT.
WITH HIS LIFE?
NO, HE SHOULD BE DOING 60 YEARS IN A PRISON,
BREAKING ROCKS, AND MAKING SPECIAL FRIENDS
WITH ROSCOE THE WEIGHTLIFTER.
YIKES, THE QUALITY OF MERCY IS NOT BUFFY.
WHOSE GHOST DO YOU THINK WE'RE DEALING WITH-- HIS OR HERS?
WELL, CONSIDERING HOW VIOLENT IT IS,
I'M GOING TO SAY HIS.
THAT TRACKS.
WELL, I'VE BEEN BROWSING ON SOME OF MS. CALENDAR'S PAGAN SITES.
MAYBE I CAN FIND A WAY TO COMMUNICATE WITH HIM
AND WE CAN FIND OUT WHAT HE WANTS.
WHO CARES WHAT HE WANTS?
WE NEED TO SHUT HIM DOWN BEFORE SOME OTHER INNOCENT GUY
GOES AND KILLS SOME POOR NICE GIRL
AND THEN BLOWS HIS BRAINS OUT ALL OVER THE MUSIC ROOM WALL.
OK...WHO'S HUNGRY?
I HOPE YOU GUYS AREN'T GOING TO THE SADIE HAWKINS DANCE TONIGHT,
'CAUSE I'M ORGANIZING A BOYCOTT.
DO YOU REALIZE THAT THE GIRLS HAVE TO ASK THE GUYS
AND PAY AND EVERYTHING?
I MEAN, WHOSE GENIUS IDEA WAS THAT?
OBVIOUSLY, SOME HAIRY-LEGGED FEMINIST.
REALLY. WELL, WE NEED TO NIP THIS THING IN THE BUD.
I MEAN, OTHERWISE, THINGS ARE GOING TO GET REALLY SCARY.
[ALL GASP]
AAH!
PERFECT. I'M GOING TO BE SCARRED AND SWOLLEN.
WHY DIDN'T THEY JUST KILL ME?
SCHOOL BOY PRANKS?
NEVER SELL.
THE SEWER GOT BACKED UP.
BETTER. I CAN PROBABLY MAKE THAT ONE FLY.
BUT THIS IS GETTING OUT OF HAND. PEOPLE WILL TALK.
YOU'LL TAKE CARE OF IT.
I'M DOING EVERYTHING I CAN,
BUT YOU PEOPLE HAVE TO REALIZE--
Man: SNYDER, WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?
BACKED UP SEWER LINE.
SAME THING HAPPENED IN SAN DIEGO JUST LAST WEEK.
WE'RE ON A HELLMOUTH.
SOONER OR LATER, PEOPLE ARE GOING TO FIGURE THAT OUT.
THE CITY COUNCIL WAS TOLD THAT YOU COULD HANDLE THIS JOB.
IF YOU FEEL THAT YOU CAN'T,
PERHAPS YOU'D LIKE TO TAKE THAT UP WITH THE MAYOR.
I'LL HANDLE IT.
I WILL.
REMEMBER THE PLAN TO CONTACT THE SPIRIT AND TALK TO IT?
SCRAP THAT PLAN. BUFFY, YOU WERE RIGHT.
THE TIME FOR TOUCHY- FEELY COMMUNICATION IS PASSED.
I'VE DONE SOME HOMEWORK AND FOUND OUT THE ONLY SOLUTION
IS THE FINAL SOLUTION.
NUKE THE SCHOOL?
I LIKE THAT.
NOT QUITE...EXORCISM.
ARE YOU CRAZY? I SAW THAT MOVIE. EVEN THE PRIEST DIED.
WHAT'S THE DEAL?
OK, SEE HERE, THE BALCONY?
THAT'S WHERE THE ORIGINAL TEACHER DIED BACK IN 1955
AND THAT TEACHER LAST NIGHT.
THAT'S THE HOT SPOT WHERE ALL THE BAD MOJO IS COMING FROM.
WE NEED TO CREATE A MANGUS-TRIPOD.
A WHAT?
ONE PERSON CHANTS HERE ON THE HOT SPOT.
AND THE OTHER 3 CHANT IN OTHER PLACES AROUND THE SCHOOL
FORMING A TRIANGLE.
IT'S SUPPOSED TO BIND THE BAD SPIRIT
AND KEEP IT FROM DOING ANY MORE HARM.
I'LL TAKE THE HOT SPOT. IF THERE'S TROUBLE, THAT'S WHERE IT'LL BE.
THIS GHOST, THIS JAMES GUY, IS FIXATING ON YOU, BUFFY--
THE DREAMS, THE YEARBOOK.
YOU SURE YOU CAN HANDLE IT?
OH, I'M HOPING HE'LL SHOW. I TRULY AM.
Buffy: OK, WE ALL HAVE OUR PLACES.
WE DO THE CHANT AND LIGHT THE CANDLE AT MIDNIGHT EXACTLY.
ANY QUESTIONS?
YEAH, WHAT IF THIS MANGLED TRIANGLE THINGY DOESN'T WORK?
OH, I ALMOST FORGOT. I MADE US ALL SCAPULAS.
OK, SO WE CAN FLIP THE GHOST OVER WHEN IT TURNS A NICE GOLDEN BROWN?
SCAPULA, NOT SPATULA.
UM, YOU WEAR IT AROUND YOUR NECK FOR PROTECTION.
YOU EXPECT ME TO WEAR THIS?
IT SMELLS LIKE GRANDPA BREATH.
SORRY, I DIDN'T HAVE A LOT OF TIME.
I HAD TO USE SULFUR.
STINKY, BUT EFFECTIVE.
OK, LET'S DO THIS.
NO PROBLEM. THIS WILL BE A PIECE OF CAKE, RIGHT?
[CRASH]
MAYBE I'LL SLEEP UNDERGROUND.
DIG MYSELF A LITTLE BURROW.
WHAT ABOUT YOUR PRETTY DRESS, SWEET?
IT'LL GET ALL DIRTY.
THEN I'LL SLEEP NAKED. LIKE THE ANIMALS DO.
YOU KNOW, I'M SUDDENLY LIKING THIS PLAN.
FORTUNATELY, NOBODY CARES WHAT YOU LIKE, MATE.
OH, YEAH, LET'S ASK DRU.
[LAUGHING] THERE'S A GATE.
IT'S OPENING.
INCOMING. I LOVE WHEN SHE DOES THIS.
WHAT GATE, PET? WHAT DO YOU SEE?
IT'S BLACK.
IT WANTS HER.
WANTS WHO?
THE SLAYER.
IT'S TIME, ANGEL.
SHE'S READY FOR YOU NOW. SHE'S DANCING.
DANCING WITH DEATH.
BIG DEAL. HE WON'T DO ANYTHING.
OUR MAN ANGEL HERE LIKES TO TALK
BUT HE'S NOT MUCH FOR ACTION.
ALL HAT AND NO CATTLE.
I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THAT.
I THINK THIS WHOLE SLAYER THING HAS RUN ITS COURSE.
I'M READY TO FOCUS MY ENERGY ELSEWHERE.
REALLY?
OH, YEAH! WHAT, WITH YOU BEING SPECIAL NEEDS BOY,
I FIGURE I SHOULD STICK CLOSE TO HOME.
YOU AND DRU CAN ALWAYS USE ANOTHER PAIR OF HANDS.
MMM!
[ANGEL LAUGHS]
[DOOR OPENS]
AAH! AAH!
GOD, WILLOW, WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?
YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE INSIDE.
ME, WHAT ABOUT YOU?
I'M, UH, I'M TRYING TO--
I THINK I MAY BE CLOSE TO CONTACTING JENNY.
WHAT'S THAT SMELL?
IT'S MY SCAPULA.
AH, DID YOU USE SULFUR?
YEAH.
IT'S CLEVER.
RUN ALONG THEN.
THERE MAY BE SOME PARANORMAL PHENOMENA IF I CONTACT HER.
YOU DON'T WANT TO BE IN THE LINE OF FIRE.
OK, 'NIGHT.

CAREFUL UP HERE.
[LIGHTER WON'T LIGHT]

Giles: YOU ALL RIGHT?
Buffy: GET BACK!
CHECK IT.
I'D SAY SCHOOL'S OUT FOR GOOD.
Giles: THE GOOD NEWS IS, NONE OF YOU GIRLS WAS SHOT.
WELL, WE'VE ESTABLISHED,
BASED ON ALL THE PARALLELS AND BUFFY'S VISIONS,
THAT IT'S JAMES' SPIRIT.
SO WHAT DO WE DO, GILES, ABOUT JAMES?
HE'S OBVIOUSLY RELIVING THE NIGHT OF THE SADIE HAWKINS DANCE
WHEN HE KILLED MISS NEWMAN.
IT'S COMMON ENOUGH FOR A SPIRIT TO DO THIS,
TO RECREATE A TRAGEDY.
HEY.
IF SUNNYDALE HIGH SCHOOL SHUTS DOWN FOREVER,
DO WE AUTOMATICALLY GRADUATE?
BUT WHY? WHAT DOES HE WANT?
ACTUALLY, THAT'S AN INTERESTING POINT.
HE'S TRYING TO... RESOLVE
WHATEVER ISSUES ARE KEEPING HIM IN LIMBO.
WHAT EXACTLY THOSE ARE, I'M NOT--
HE WANTS FORGIVENESS.
Giles: YES.
I IMAGINE HE DOES.
BUT WHEN JAMES POSSESSES PEOPLE,
THEY ACT OUT EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED THAT NIGHT.
SO HE'S EXPERIENCING A FORM OF PURGATORY INSTEAD.
I MEAN, HE'S DOOMED TO KILL HIS MISS NEWMAN
OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN,
AND...FORGIVENESS IS IMPOSSIBLE.
GOOD. HE DOESN'T DESERVE IT.
TO FORGIVE IS AN ACT OF COMPASSION, BUFFY.
IT'S NOT DONE BECAUSE PEOPLE DESERVE IT.
IT'S DONE BECAUSE THEY NEED IT.
NO.
JAMES DESTROYED THE ONE PERSON HE LOVED THE MOST
IN A MOMENT OF BLIND PASSION.
AND THAT'S NOT SOMETHING YOU FORGIVE.
NO MATTER WHY HE DID WHAT HE DID.
AND NO MATTER IF HE KNOWS NOW THAT IT WAS WRONG AND SELFISH AND STUPID,
IT IS JUST SOMETHING HE'S GONNA HAVE TO LIVE WITH.
HE CAN'T LIVE WITH IT, BUFF.
HE'S DEAD.
OK. OVERIDENTIFY MUCH?
Voice, whispers: I need you.
SO WHAT DO WE DO NEXT? DO WE GO IN AGAIN?
WELL, NOT NOW.
NO, THE, UH...
THE SPIRIT IS TOO ANGRY, TOO POWERFUL.
NO, WE HAVE TO WORK OUT
EXACTLY HOW AND IF THIS THING CAN BE DEFEATED.
[WASP SWARM BUZZING]
HEY, BUFFY, ARE YOU--
OH, GOD.
GILES!
SHE WENT BACK.
Xander: SO WHAT NOW?
NOT EVEN A MEGA-VAT OF RAID'S GONNA DO THE TRICK HERE.
I DON'T GET IT. IS SHE TRYING TO BE
A BIG, LONER HERO OR SOMETHING?
NO. I BELIEVE SHE'S UNDER THE SPIRIT'S THRALL.
HE'S CALLING HER.
BUT WHY?
JAMES NEEDS HER TO REENACT EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED
ON THE NIGHT THAT HE KILLED MISS NEWMAN.
HE WANTS TO CHANGE THINGS, MAKE--MAKE A HAPPY ENDING.
BUT IT CAN'T EVER HAPPEN.
IT ALWAYS ENDS THE SAME,
WHICH MEANS BUFFY JUST WENT IN THERE TO GET SHOT, GILES.
YES.
BUT THE SCHOOL'S DESERTED.
THERE'S NO WAY FOR JAMES TO PLAY HIS PART.
THERE'S NO MAN INSIDE FOR HIM TO POSSESS.
SO BUFFY SHOULD BE SAFE UNTIL WE FIND A WAY TO GET HER OUT.
IN THEORY. YEAH.
FUN FACT ABOUT WASPS.
THEY HAVE NO TASTE FOR THE UNDEAD.
NOT THAT A STING WOULD DO ME ANY DAMAGE,
IT'S JUST... TONIGHT'S SPECIAL.
I WANTED TO LOOK MY BEST FOR YOU.
YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE.
THE ONLY PERSON I CAN TALK TO.
GOSH, BUFF...
THAT'S REALLY PATHETIC.
YOU CAN'T MAKE ME DISAPPEAR JUST BECAUSE YOU SAY IT'S OVER.
ACTUALLY...
I CAN.
IN FACT...
I JUST WANT YOU TO BE ABLE TO HAVE SOME KIND OF NORMAL LIFE.
WE CAN NEVER HAVE THAT, DON'T YOU SEE?
I DON'T GIVE A DAMN ABOUT A NORMAL LIFE!
I'M GOING CRAZY NOT SEEING YOU.
I THINK ABOUT YOU EVERY MINUTE.
I KNOW.
BUT IT'S OVER.
IT HAS TO BE.
COME BACK HERE!
WE'RE NOT FINISHED!
YOU DON'T CARE ANYMORE, IS THAT IT?
IT DOESN'T MATTER. IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT I FEEL.
THEN TELL ME YOU DON'T LOVE ME!
SAY IT!
IS THAT WHAT YOU NEED TO HEAR?
WILL THAT HELP?
I DON'T.
NOW LET ME GO.
NO.
A PERSON DOESN'T JUST WAKE UP
AND STOP LOVING SOMEBODY!
LOVE IS FOREVER.
I'M NOT AFRAID TO USE IT, I SWEAR!
IF I CAN'T BE WITH YOU...
OH, MY GOD.
DON'T WALK AWAY FROM ME...
BITCH!
STOP IT!
DON'T MAKE ME!
ALL RIGHT.
JUST...
YOU KNOW YOU DON'T WANT TO DO THIS.
LET'S BOTH...
JUST CALM DOWN.
NOW GIVE ME THE GUN.
DON'T. DON'T DO THAT, DAMN IT!
DON'T TALK TO ME LIKE I'M SOME STUPID--

IT WAS AN ACCIDENT. IT WASN'T YOUR FAULT.
OH, IT IS MY FAULT. HOW COULD I--
SHH. I'M THE ONE WHO SHOULD BE SORRY, JAMES.
YOU THOUGHT I STOPPED LOVING YOU.
BUT I NEVER DID.
I LOVED YOU WITH MY LAST BREATH.
[CRYING]
SHH...
NO MORE TEARS.
ANGEL.
[DOOR OPENS]
EVERYTHING SEEMS NORMAL.
NOT A SNAKE, NOT A WASP.
YEP. SCHOOL CAN OPEN AGAIN TOMORROW.
EXPLAIN TO ME AGAIN HOW THAT'S A GOOD THING.
I'M DRAWING A BLANK.
ARE YOU FEELING ANY BETTER?
JAMES PICKED ME.
I GUESS...
I GUESS I WAS THE ONE HE COULD RELATE TO.
HE WAS SO SAD.
WELL...
THEY CAN BOTH REST NOW.
I STILL...
A PART OF ME JUST DOESN'T UNDERSTAND WHY SHE WOULD FORGIVE HIM.
DOES IT MATTER?
NO.
I GUESS NOT.
[FRANTIC BREATHING]
YOU MIGHT WANT TO LET UP.
THEY SAY WHEN YOU'VE DRAWN BLOOD, YOU'VE EXFOLIATED.
WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT IT?
