1
00:00:02,465 --> 00:00:04,820
Mom, I'm a vampire slayer.

2
00:00:04,905 --> 00:00:07,260
<i>Previously on “Buffy the Vampire Slayer“.</i>

3
00:00:07,345 --> 00:00:10,383
You walk out of this house,
don't even think about coming back.

4
00:00:10,465 --> 00:00:14,140
These are the moments you want
to savour. You're expelled.

5
00:00:17,345 --> 00:00:19,905
- I love you.
- I love you.

6
00:00:26,225 --> 00:00:28,216
Buffy.

7
00:00:30,545 --> 00:00:34,175
Wouldn't it be great if Buffy showed up
tomorrow? Like nothing happened?

8
00:00:34,265 --> 00:00:38,418
- She can't just show up. She got kicked out.
- I wonder what she's doing right now.

9
00:00:39,705 --> 00:00:42,299
Joyce, you mustn't
blame yourself for her leaving.

10
00:00:42,385 --> 00:00:44,695
I don't. I blame you.

11
00:01:18,545 --> 00:01:21,344
- Mom?
- Buffy.

12
00:01:23,425 --> 00:01:27,020
- Sorry.
- No, no. Don't worry about it.

13
00:01:27,345 --> 00:01:31,134
I guess I just got used
to all the quiet while you were gone.

14
00:01:31,225 --> 00:01:34,297
But it's no problem. Look.

15
00:01:34,385 --> 00:01:38,538
It's Nigerian. We got a very exciting
shipment in at the gallery.

16
00:01:38,625 --> 00:01:42,744
I thought I'd hang a few pieces in here.
It cheers up the room.

17
00:01:42,825 --> 00:01:46,614
It's angry at the room, Mom.
It wants the room to suffer.

18
00:01:47,025 --> 00:01:50,017
You have no appreciation of primitive art.

19
00:01:51,105 --> 00:01:53,096
You going out?

20
00:01:56,865 --> 00:01:58,856
Well, if it's OK.

21
00:02:01,505 --> 00:02:05,464
- I'd like to find Willow and Xander.
- Will you be slaying?

22
00:02:05,545 --> 00:02:07,695
Only if they give me lip.

23
00:02:07,785 --> 00:02:10,937
Can I make you a sandwich before you go?
You must be starving.

24
00:02:11,025 --> 00:02:15,542
I was until that four-course snack
you served me after dinner.

25
00:02:15,625 --> 00:02:18,697
Well, then... You know, why don't I drive you?

26
00:02:18,785 --> 00:02:21,459
- You know, I mean, they could be anywhere.
- Mom...

27
00:02:21,545 --> 00:02:24,936
- If you don't want me to go, just say so.
- No, no.

28
00:02:25,865 --> 00:02:29,176
I just wanna put this whole thing
behind us, get back to normal.

29
00:02:29,865 --> 00:02:32,254
You go. Have a good time.

30
00:02:32,745 --> 00:02:34,736
OK.

31
00:03:16,545 --> 00:03:19,537
Didn't anyone warn you
about playing with pointy sticks?

32
00:03:19,625 --> 00:03:22,424
It's all fun and games
until somebody loses an eye.

33
00:03:22,505 --> 00:03:25,497
You shouldn't sneak up on people like that.

34
00:03:27,265 --> 00:03:29,256
Jeez, Buff.

35
00:03:37,505 --> 00:03:40,497
<i>- Nighthawk! Everything OK?</i>
- Nighthawk?

36
00:04:05,985 --> 00:04:07,976
Hey, Buffy.

37
00:04:19,105 --> 00:04:21,096
Hey, guys.

38
00:05:20,225 --> 00:05:24,219
You know, maybe it's too late.
Maybe we should just come back tomorrow.

39
00:05:26,865 --> 00:05:28,697
What if he's mad?

40
00:05:28,785 --> 00:05:32,779
Mad? Because you ran away and abandoned
your post, your friends and your mom

41
00:05:32,865 --> 00:05:35,857
and made him lay awake
every night worrying about ya?

42
00:05:35,945 --> 00:05:38,334
Maybe we should wait out here.

43
00:05:54,305 --> 00:05:57,138
Check it out. The Watcher's
back on the clock.

44
00:05:57,225 --> 00:06:02,618
Just when you were thinking career change,
maybe becoming a looker or a seer.

45
00:06:02,705 --> 00:06:04,218
Thank you, Xander.

46
00:06:06,545 --> 00:06:08,536
Welcome home, Buffy.

47
00:06:10,505 --> 00:06:13,702
I got in a few hours ago,
but I wanted to go see my mom first.

48
00:06:13,785 --> 00:06:16,504
Yes. Yes, of course. How did you find her?

49
00:06:16,585 --> 00:06:19,384
Well, I pretty much remembered the address.

50
00:06:19,865 --> 00:06:21,902
I mean...

51
00:06:21,985 --> 00:06:24,738
How are things between you?

52
00:06:24,825 --> 00:06:27,055
Excuse me.

53
00:06:27,145 --> 00:06:29,864
So you're not wanted for murder any more.

54
00:06:29,945 --> 00:06:32,334
Good. That was such a drag.

55
00:06:33,545 --> 00:06:37,857
- Where were you? Did you go to Belgium?
- Why would I go to Belgium?

56
00:06:37,945 --> 00:06:40,937
I think the relevant question
is why wouldn't ya?

57
00:06:41,025 --> 00:06:43,016
Belgium.

58
00:06:44,545 --> 00:06:47,856
- What's up with you, Xander?
- You know, same old, same old.

59
00:06:47,945 --> 00:06:50,539
- Hardly.
- OK, I lied. A whole lot is new.

60
00:06:50,625 --> 00:06:56,143
- Well, that's good, isn't it? New is good.
- Absolutely. Except for the obvious.

61
00:06:57,025 --> 00:06:59,175
Yeah, cos you weren't in hell.

62
00:06:59,265 --> 00:07:01,575
Cordelia went on a luxury vacation.

63
00:07:01,665 --> 00:07:04,418
- I feel for you.
- Here we are then.

64
00:07:05,225 --> 00:07:07,216
Chow's up.

65
00:07:07,945 --> 00:07:10,505
So were you, like, living in a box, or what?

66
00:07:10,585 --> 00:07:13,054
Well, it's a long story.

67
00:07:13,145 --> 00:07:17,742
So skip the heart-warming stuff about
kindly old people and get right to the dirt.

68
00:07:18,225 --> 00:07:23,140
Perhaps Buffy could use a little time to adjust
before we grill her on her summer activities.

69
00:07:23,225 --> 00:07:25,660
- What he said.
- Fair enough.

70
00:07:25,745 --> 00:07:29,056
Leave the slaying to us while you settle in.
We got you covered.

71
00:07:29,145 --> 00:07:33,855
I noticed. You guys seem down with the
slayage. With your walkies and everything.

72
00:07:33,945 --> 00:07:38,064
Yeah, but the outfits suck.
This whole Rambo thing is so over.

73
00:07:38,145 --> 00:07:41,376
I'm thinking more sporty, like Hilfiger maybe.

74
00:07:41,465 --> 00:07:44,298
Still, we were getting good.
We dusted nine out of ten.

75
00:07:44,385 --> 00:07:46,023
- Six out of ten.
- Six out of ten.

76
00:07:46,105 --> 00:07:48,460
Whatever, we were kicking undead booty.

77
00:07:48,545 --> 00:07:52,379
Thank you for the offer, but I think
I wanna get back to my normal routine.

78
00:07:52,465 --> 00:07:55,139
You know, school, slaying. Kids' stuff.

79
00:07:55,225 --> 00:08:00,425
In fact, I'm jonesing for a little brainless fun.
What are you doing tomorrow?

80
00:08:00,505 --> 00:08:03,736
I would, but I'm kinda tied up.

81
00:08:03,825 --> 00:08:06,135
You wish.

82
00:08:06,225 --> 00:08:08,785
- Will?
- Tomorrow, I...

83
00:08:08,865 --> 00:08:12,142
Come on. Friends don't let
friends browse alone.

84
00:08:12,225 --> 00:08:16,219
OK. I had some schoolwork,
but I can change my plans.

85
00:08:16,305 --> 00:08:21,061
As for school, Buffy, you know you'll have
to talk to Principal Snyder before...

86
00:08:21,145 --> 00:08:24,661
On it. Mom is making
an appointment with His Ugliness.

87
00:08:24,745 --> 00:08:27,544
I know she can break him.

88
00:08:27,745 --> 00:08:30,419
Absolutely not. Under no circumstances.

89
00:08:30,785 --> 00:08:34,779
But you can't keep her out of school.
You don't have the right.

90
00:08:34,865 --> 00:08:39,018
I have not only the right, but also
a nearly physical sensation of pleasure

91
00:08:39,105 --> 00:08:42,814
at the thought of keeping her
out of school. I'd say I'm tingly.

92
00:08:42,905 --> 00:08:45,624
Buffy was cleared of all those charges.

93
00:08:45,705 --> 00:08:50,541
Yes. And while she may live up to the
not-a-murderer requirement for enrolment,

94
00:08:50,625 --> 00:08:55,062
she is a troublemaker, destructive to school
property and the occasional student.

95
00:08:55,145 --> 00:08:58,137
And her grade-point average is enough to...

96
00:08:59,345 --> 00:09:02,064
I'm sorry. Another tingle moment.

97
00:09:02,145 --> 00:09:05,615
How can you be so cavalier
about a young girl's entire future?

98
00:09:05,705 --> 00:09:11,098
I'm quite sure that a girl with the talents
and abilities of Buffy will land on her feet.

99
00:09:11,185 --> 00:09:14,621
In fact, I noticed as I came in this morning

100
00:09:14,705 --> 00:09:17,094
that Hot Dog on a Stick is hiring.

101
00:09:17,465 --> 00:09:19,854
You will look so cute in that hat.

102
00:09:19,945 --> 00:09:21,936
Let's go, Mom.

103
00:09:24,705 --> 00:09:28,858
This isn't over. If I have to,
I'll go all the way to the Mayor.

104
00:09:30,945 --> 00:09:33,141
Wouldn't that be interesting?

105
00:09:38,945 --> 00:09:41,016
Don't worry about school, honey.

106
00:09:41,105 --> 00:09:44,939
If we can't get you back into Sunnydale,
maybe we can swing private school.

107
00:09:45,025 --> 00:09:47,858
Private school?
You mean, like, jackets and kilts?

108
00:09:47,945 --> 00:09:50,983
- You want me to get field-hockey knees?
- It's not that bad.

109
00:09:51,065 --> 00:09:55,423
What about home schooling? It's not just
for scary religious people any more.

110
00:09:55,705 --> 00:09:58,504
We'll work something out. OK?

111
00:10:00,465 --> 00:10:02,456
Say hi to Willow?

112
00:10:41,385 --> 00:10:44,184
My word. You must be Buffy.

113
00:10:45,025 --> 00:10:47,414
Look at you. Aren't you a picture?

114
00:10:48,465 --> 00:10:51,662
- Thank you.
- I'm Pat. From your mom's book club.

115
00:10:51,745 --> 00:10:54,544
- I'm sure she mentioned me.
- Actually...

116
00:10:54,625 --> 00:10:58,016
I sort of took it upon myself
to look after her while you were,

117
00:10:58,105 --> 00:11:00,699
you know, off and away
or what have you, and...

118
00:11:00,785 --> 00:11:06,542
Well, between your situation and reading
Deep End of the Ocean, she was...

119
00:11:06,625 --> 00:11:09,538
she was just a wreck. You can imagine.

120
00:11:09,625 --> 00:11:14,017
Anyway, I'm off. We're making
empanadas in my Spanish class tonight.

121
00:11:14,105 --> 00:11:17,496
You go be with your mom.
You two need to rebond.

122
00:11:23,305 --> 00:11:25,615
Pat wishes us quality time.

123
00:11:26,345 --> 00:11:28,063
- I met her in a...
- Book club.

124
00:11:28,145 --> 00:11:31,740
- Got it.
- Before I forget, Willow just called.

125
00:11:32,705 --> 00:11:35,697
- Where was she?
- She got held up.

126
00:11:35,785 --> 00:11:37,981
But she said she tried to call.

127
00:11:38,545 --> 00:11:41,139
- Was there a message?
- No.

128
00:11:43,225 --> 00:11:45,785
But I had a thought.

129
00:11:45,865 --> 00:11:50,462
What if I invited Willow and Mr Giles and
everybody over for dinner tomorrow night?

130
00:11:50,545 --> 00:11:53,378
Don't you think that would be nice?

131
00:11:54,225 --> 00:11:57,536
Since I sort of already did,
I was hoping for a yes.

132
00:12:00,025 --> 00:12:02,619
- That'll be fun.
- Great.

133
00:12:04,105 --> 00:12:07,621
Do me a favour?
Run down and get the company plates.

134
00:12:07,705 --> 00:12:11,460
Mom... Willow and everybody
aren't company-plate people.

135
00:12:11,545 --> 00:12:15,539
- They're normal-plate people.
- We never have guests for dinner.

136
00:12:15,625 --> 00:12:17,616
Indulge your mother?

137
00:12:52,025 --> 00:12:56,462
Next time, I get to pick
the mother-daughter bonding activity.

138
00:13:02,745 --> 00:13:05,544
- Do you wanna say something?
- Like what?

139
00:13:05,625 --> 00:13:08,060
Thanks for stopping by and dying?

140
00:13:08,145 --> 00:13:13,345
How about: goodbye, stray cat
who lost its way. We hope you find it.

141
00:15:10,465 --> 00:15:13,457
- I thought they'd be here.
- They are.

142
00:15:13,545 --> 00:15:15,934
They're waiting for you.

143
00:15:17,305 --> 00:15:19,376
Am I dreaming?

144
00:15:19,465 --> 00:15:22,059
I'm probably the wrong person to ask.

145
00:15:23,305 --> 00:15:25,296
You'd better go.

146
00:15:27,225 --> 00:15:29,660
I'm afraid.

147
00:15:29,745 --> 00:15:31,736
You should be.

148
00:15:49,865 --> 00:15:53,938
I've been on the phone with
the superintendent of schools.

149
00:15:54,025 --> 00:15:58,542
At least he seems more reasonable than that
nasty little, horrid, bigoted rodent-man.

150
00:15:58,625 --> 00:15:59,615
Mom.

151
00:15:59,705 --> 00:16:03,300
Anyway, I'm going in
to speak with him this afternoon.

152
00:16:03,385 --> 00:16:07,140
As for private schools,
Miss Porter's accepts late admissions.

153
00:16:07,225 --> 00:16:11,617
- I wrote the information down for you.
- A girls' school?

154
00:16:11,705 --> 00:16:16,905
So now it's jackets, kilts and no boys?
Care to throw in a little foot-binding?

155
00:16:17,545 --> 00:16:23,018
Buffy, you made some bad choices. You just
might have to live with some consequences.

156
00:16:26,545 --> 00:16:28,934
Nothing's settled yet.

157
00:16:30,545 --> 00:16:33,059
I just wish you didn't have to be so secretive.

158
00:16:33,145 --> 00:16:37,059
It's not your fault you have a special
circumstance. They should make allowances.

159
00:16:37,145 --> 00:16:41,139
Mom, I'm a slayer. It's not like
I need to ride a little bus to school.

160
00:16:41,225 --> 00:16:46,459
Couldn't you just tell a few people, like
Principal Snyder and maybe the police?

161
00:16:46,545 --> 00:16:51,540
I mean, I would think they would be
happy to have a superhero.

162
00:16:52,145 --> 00:16:55,536
Is that the right term?
It's not offensive, is it?

163
00:17:01,625 --> 00:17:04,219
Welcome to the Hellmouth Petting Zoo.

164
00:17:10,385 --> 00:17:12,661
My God, what a stench.

165
00:17:12,745 --> 00:17:18,218
You know, I wanted Forest Pine
or April Fresh, but Mom wanted Dead Cat.

166
00:17:18,305 --> 00:17:20,296
Well...

167
00:17:22,145 --> 00:17:26,776
I'll get it back to the library,
see if we can determine its exact origin.

168
00:17:29,785 --> 00:17:34,018
It's striking and... Nigerian.

169
00:17:34,105 --> 00:17:38,463
Yes. I have this wonderful dealer
who specialises in ancient artefacts...

170
00:17:38,545 --> 00:17:43,301
I love alt talk as much as the next very dull
person, but we have work to do, Giles.

171
00:17:43,385 --> 00:17:47,015
- Research mode.
- Shouldn't you stay with your mother?

172
00:17:47,105 --> 00:17:50,461
- You must have...
- Please, no. It's fine. She can go with you.

173
00:17:50,545 --> 00:17:52,934
Actually, she can't.

174
00:17:53,945 --> 00:17:57,063
You're not allowed on school property.

175
00:17:57,145 --> 00:17:59,136
I'm sorry.

176
00:18:00,745 --> 00:18:04,420
I'll call as soon as I know something.

177
00:18:05,025 --> 00:18:08,256
- We'll see you tonight.
- Tonight, then.

178
00:18:14,145 --> 00:18:17,137
It looks dead. It smells dead.

179
00:18:17,225 --> 00:18:21,935
Yet it's movin' around. That's interesting.

180
00:18:22,025 --> 00:18:25,620
Nice pet, Giles.
Don't you like anything regular?

181
00:18:25,705 --> 00:18:28,140
Golf, USA Today, or anything?

182
00:18:28,225 --> 00:18:34,141
I'm trying to find out how and why it rose
from the grave. I'm not about to take it home.

183
00:18:34,225 --> 00:18:37,775
Well, I like it. I think
you should call it Patches.

184
00:18:37,865 --> 00:18:43,065
What about Buffy's dinner tonight?
I told her mom we'd help out. Bring stuff.

185
00:18:43,145 --> 00:18:45,136
I'm the dip.

186
00:18:46,785 --> 00:18:49,140
You gotta admire the purity of it.

187
00:18:49,545 --> 00:18:51,775
What? Onion dip.

188
00:18:51,865 --> 00:18:55,142
Stirring, not cooking. It's what I bring.

189
00:18:55,225 --> 00:18:59,617
We should figure out what kinda deal this is.
I mean, is it a gathering, a shindig,

190
00:18:59,705 --> 00:19:02,857
- or a hootenanny?
- What's the difference?

191
00:19:02,945 --> 00:19:05,937
Well, a gathering is brie,
mellow song stylings,

192
00:19:06,025 --> 00:19:11,145
shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings,
perhaps a large amount of malt beverage,

193
00:19:11,225 --> 00:19:15,139
and hootenanny, well, it's chock-full
of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

194
00:19:15,225 --> 00:19:19,059
- Well, I hate brie.
- I know. It smells like Giles's cat.

195
00:19:19,145 --> 00:19:22,217
- It's not my...
- And what'll we talk about at a gathering?

196
00:19:22,305 --> 00:19:24,945
"Did you meet any nice pimps
on your travels?" and

197
00:19:25,025 --> 00:19:28,177
"Thanks for ruining our lives
for the past three months."

198
00:19:28,265 --> 00:19:30,620
- Xander.
- You know what I mean.

199
00:19:30,705 --> 00:19:35,302
She doesn't wanna talk about it, we don't,
so why don't we just shut up and dance?

200
00:19:35,385 --> 00:19:39,663
Well, Buffy said she did wanna loosen up,
you know, have some kid time.

201
00:19:39,745 --> 00:19:42,703
Aren't you rehearsing tonight?
Why not play at the party?

202
00:19:42,785 --> 00:19:47,222
- I think I could supply some Dingo action.
- I'm not sure that a...

203
00:19:47,305 --> 00:19:49,296
- shindig...
- Hootenanny.

204
00:19:49,385 --> 00:19:52,776
Hootenanny is really the order of the day.

205
00:19:53,465 --> 00:19:56,742
Maybe something a little more intimate.
Buffy has just got home.

206
00:19:56,825 --> 00:19:59,943
I'm sure she's still feeling a little disoriented.

207
00:20:00,025 --> 00:20:04,781
All the more reason to make her feel
welcome. A big party says "Welcome, Buffy".

208
00:20:04,865 --> 00:20:07,903
OK, so one vote from the old guy
for a smelly cheese night

209
00:20:07,985 --> 00:20:10,659
and how many votes for actual fun?

210
00:20:12,865 --> 00:20:15,300
All right, all right. Have it your way.

211
00:20:15,385 --> 00:20:18,104
I'm just glad to have her home.

212
00:20:18,185 --> 00:20:20,574
Now things can get back to normal.

213
00:20:44,465 --> 00:20:49,141
There you are. Not thinking about
any more flights of fancy, I hope.

214
00:20:49,225 --> 00:20:54,459
Joyce said there was room for one more,
so I said forget facial night and let's party.

215
00:20:54,545 --> 00:20:56,536
I bet you like empanadas.

216
00:21:00,945 --> 00:21:03,539
Do you wanna see my mom? Mom!

217
00:21:05,465 --> 00:21:07,615
Pat. Good.

218
00:21:07,705 --> 00:21:09,935
- Buffy, I hope you don't mind.
- Hi.

219
00:21:11,145 --> 00:21:13,136
Great.

220
00:21:13,785 --> 00:21:16,459
Hey, Buffy. Where do you want
the band to set up?

221
00:21:16,545 --> 00:21:18,582
The band?

222
00:21:41,305 --> 00:21:43,694
- Hey.
- Hey.

223
00:21:45,225 --> 00:21:47,865
- This is large.
- You like?

224
00:21:48,865 --> 00:21:50,856
Yeah. It's great.

225
00:21:51,705 --> 00:21:54,697
I was just sort of hoping it would be... us.

226
00:21:55,625 --> 00:21:57,616
Sorry. What?

227
00:21:58,305 --> 00:22:03,698
This is amazing but I was sort of hoping
we could just hang together - the gang.

228
00:22:40,025 --> 00:22:41,857
Is everything OK?

229
00:22:41,945 --> 00:22:47,623
You you seem to be avoiding me,
in the one-on-one sense.

230
00:22:47,705 --> 00:22:52,541
What? This isn't avoiding.
See? Here you are, here I am.

231
00:22:53,145 --> 00:22:55,136
- So we're cool?
- Way.

232
00:22:55,225 --> 00:22:59,583
That's why, with the party,
cos we're all glad you're back.

233
00:23:01,225 --> 00:23:03,455
- OK.
- OK. Good.

234
00:23:44,785 --> 00:23:47,903
Hey, Buff. What are you doing?

235
00:23:48,385 --> 00:23:51,377
I was just taking a break
from all this wacky fun.

236
00:23:51,465 --> 00:23:55,936
Some kind of party, huh? I guess a lot
of people are glad to have you back.

237
00:23:56,025 --> 00:23:59,222
It seems like people
I didn't even know missed me.

238
00:24:00,625 --> 00:24:04,539
- Did Giles say he was gonna be late?
- He was Library Man last time I saw him.

239
00:24:04,625 --> 00:24:07,936
He'll be here. He wants to celebrate
your homecoming. We all do.

240
00:24:08,025 --> 00:24:10,380
It's great to have the Buffster back.

241
00:24:10,865 --> 00:24:13,061
- Isn't it?
- Totally.

242
00:24:14,105 --> 00:24:17,939
Except you were kinda turning me on
with that whole Boy Slayer look.

243
00:24:18,025 --> 00:24:21,416
- Was I now?
- You bet, Nighthawk.

244
00:24:27,625 --> 00:24:31,334
Well, I'll just be... Yeah.

245
00:24:37,625 --> 00:24:39,616
Breathe.

246
00:24:41,145 --> 00:24:43,136
Breathe.

247
00:24:44,305 --> 00:24:49,095
All right, look, these burns are too extensive.
It's 7.43. Let's call it.

248
00:24:55,945 --> 00:24:57,936
Oh, my God!

249
00:25:06,385 --> 00:25:09,855
- What's the deal with this party anyway?
- This party?

250
00:25:09,945 --> 00:25:13,540
Heard it was for some chick
that just got outta rehab.

251
00:25:29,625 --> 00:25:33,414
Now, how are you holding up, Joyce? Really.

252
00:25:33,865 --> 00:25:36,618
Really? I'm...

253
00:25:36,705 --> 00:25:41,461
I don't know. While Buffy was gone,
all I could think about was getting her home.

254
00:25:41,545 --> 00:25:46,574
I just knew that if I could put my arms around
her and tell her I loved her, it would be OK.

255
00:25:47,145 --> 00:25:49,534
- But?
- Having Buffy home,

256
00:25:49,625 --> 00:25:55,018
I thought it was gonna make it all better
but, in some ways, it's almost worse.

257
00:26:56,145 --> 00:26:58,136
Oh, Lord.

258
00:27:36,145 --> 00:27:38,136
Party Villa, can I rock you?

259
00:27:38,225 --> 00:27:43,903
I need to speak with Buffy. Immediately. I
have information that is extremely important.

260
00:27:45,465 --> 00:27:49,254
Yeah. Fiesta foul. You gotta do a shot.

261
00:27:49,345 --> 00:27:52,383
I need to speak to Buffy. Now!

262
00:27:52,465 --> 00:27:54,456
Bunny?

263
00:27:55,145 --> 00:27:57,864
- That guy's gotta do a shot.
- Buffy!

264
00:27:57,945 --> 00:28:00,141
Hey. I need to talk to a Buddy.

265
00:28:01,225 --> 00:28:03,216
Is there a Buddy here?

266
00:28:04,345 --> 00:28:08,339
Sorry. He's not here.
You got the wrong house, Mr Belvedere.

267
00:28:08,865 --> 00:28:11,618
Hello? Hello.

268
00:28:30,545 --> 00:28:32,536
You're leaving again?

269
00:28:33,545 --> 00:28:36,856
You just stopped by for your lint brush
and now you're ready to go?

270
00:28:36,945 --> 00:28:40,779
- It's not like anyone'll mind.
- No. Have a great time.

271
00:28:40,865 --> 00:28:44,460
- And don't forget to not write.
- Why are you attacking me?

272
00:28:44,945 --> 00:28:48,700
- I'm trying.
- And it looks so much like giving up.

273
00:28:48,785 --> 00:28:51,618
- I'm just trying to make things easier.
- For who?

274
00:28:51,705 --> 00:28:55,494
- You guys were doing fine without me.
- We were doing the best we could.

275
00:28:55,585 --> 00:28:57,940
It's not like we had a lot of choice.

276
00:28:58,025 --> 00:29:02,496
Sorry that I had to leave, but you
don't know what I was going through.

277
00:29:02,585 --> 00:29:06,101
- Well, I'd like to.
- You wouldn't understand.

278
00:29:07,345 --> 00:29:10,622
Well, maybe I don't need to understand.

279
00:29:10,705 --> 00:29:14,061
Maybe I just need you to talk to me.

280
00:29:14,145 --> 00:29:16,534
How could I when you were avoiding me?

281
00:29:16,625 --> 00:29:18,616
This isn't easy, Buffy.

282
00:29:19,465 --> 00:29:22,981
I know you're going through stuff,
but so am I.

283
00:29:23,065 --> 00:29:28,139
- I know you were worried about me but...
- No. I don't just mean that.

284
00:29:28,225 --> 00:29:30,785
I mean, my life.

285
00:29:30,865 --> 00:29:34,017
You know? I'm having all sorts of...

286
00:29:34,545 --> 00:29:39,301
I'm dating. I am having
serious dating with a werewolf,

287
00:29:39,385 --> 00:29:43,458
and I'm studying witchcraft
and killing vampires,

288
00:29:43,545 --> 00:29:46,014
and I didn't have anyone to talk to

289
00:29:46,105 --> 00:29:49,302
about all this scary life stuff.

290
00:29:51,545 --> 00:29:53,934
And you were my best friend.

291
00:29:58,625 --> 00:30:01,936
Unbelievable. "Do you like my mask?"

292
00:30:02,025 --> 00:30:04,619
"Isn't it pretty? It raises the dead."

293
00:30:06,025 --> 00:30:07,424
Americans.

294
00:30:09,225 --> 00:30:10,898
Jesus!

295
00:30:13,905 --> 00:30:15,896
My God.

296
00:30:16,705 --> 00:30:18,696
Are you all right?

297
00:30:18,785 --> 00:30:20,776
Are you hurt?

298
00:30:24,225 --> 00:30:25,784
God.

299
00:30:32,385 --> 00:30:34,854
You have no idea how much I missed you.

300
00:30:34,945 --> 00:30:37,141
Everyone.

301
00:30:37,225 --> 00:30:41,059
- I wanted to call every day.
- That doesn't matter, Buffy.

302
00:30:41,145 --> 00:30:45,059
- It doesn't make it OK that you didn't.
- What is this?

303
00:30:45,865 --> 00:30:48,539
Is this some sort of a joke?

304
00:30:48,625 --> 00:30:51,856
- Mom, please, could you just...
- No, I can't just.

305
00:30:51,945 --> 00:30:55,142
- Buffy, what is this?
- She was running away again.

306
00:30:55,225 --> 00:30:57,216
No, I wasn't.

307
00:30:58,345 --> 00:31:02,384
- I'm not sure.
- You better get sure and explain yourself.

308
00:31:02,465 --> 00:31:05,218
If you think you can take off
any time you feel Ii...

309
00:31:05,305 --> 00:31:07,296
Stop it. Please.

310
00:31:08,025 --> 00:31:11,177
I don't know. I don't know what I'm doing.

311
00:31:17,345 --> 00:31:20,940
Don't you leave this house, young lady.
You know what? That's it.

312
00:31:21,025 --> 00:31:24,063
- You and I are gonna have a talk.
- Mom, please...

313
00:31:24,145 --> 00:31:27,695
You know what? I don't care.
I don't care what your friends think,

314
00:31:27,785 --> 00:31:31,460
or you, for that matter, because you
put me through the wringer. I mean it.

315
00:31:31,545 --> 00:31:35,857
And I've had schnapps.
Do you have any idea what it's been like?

316
00:31:35,945 --> 00:31:40,462
- Mom, this isn't the t...
- You can't imagine months of not knowing.

317
00:31:40,545 --> 00:31:45,619
Not knowing whether you're lying dead
in a ditch somewhere or living it up.

318
00:31:45,705 --> 00:31:49,016
But you told me.
You're the one who said I should go.

319
00:31:49,105 --> 00:31:52,621
You said if I leave, don't come back.
You found out who I really was

320
00:31:52,705 --> 00:31:54,696
and you couldn't deal. Remember?

321
00:31:54,785 --> 00:31:57,061
Buffy, you didn't give me time.

322
00:31:57,145 --> 00:31:59,455
You dumped it on me
and expected me to get it.

323
00:31:59,545 --> 00:32:02,856
Well, guess what? Mom's not perfect,
OK? I handled it badly.

324
00:32:02,945 --> 00:32:06,301
But that doesn't give you the right
to punish me by running away.

325
00:32:06,385 --> 00:32:09,776
- I didn't do this to punish you.
- Well, you did.

326
00:32:09,865 --> 00:32:12,857
- You didn't see what you put her through.
- Great. Thanks.

327
00:32:12,945 --> 00:32:16,939
Anybody else wanna weigh in here?
How about you by the dip?

328
00:32:17,025 --> 00:32:19,255
No, thanks. I'm good.

329
00:32:20,145 --> 00:32:24,935
Maybe you don't wanna hear it, Buffy, but
taking off was incredibly selfish and stupid.

330
00:32:25,025 --> 00:32:28,939
OK. I screwed up. I know this.
But you have no idea!

331
00:32:29,025 --> 00:32:33,303
You have no idea what happened
to me or what I was feeling.

332
00:32:33,385 --> 00:32:37,219
- Did you even try talking to anybody?
- There was nothing anybody could do. OK?

333
00:32:37,305 --> 00:32:41,378
- I just had to deal with this on my own.
- Yeah, see how well that one worked out.

334
00:32:41,465 --> 00:32:44,264
You can't just bury stuff.
It'll come back up to get ya.

335
00:33:05,305 --> 00:33:07,694
Good show, Giles.

336
00:33:21,025 --> 00:33:23,414
Like riding a bloody bicycle.

337
00:33:29,185 --> 00:33:34,055
As if I could've gone to you. Your feelings
about Angel and I were perfectly clear.

338
00:33:34,145 --> 00:33:37,058
Look. I'm sorry that your honey was a demon,

339
00:33:37,145 --> 00:33:40,137
but most girls don't hop
a Greyhound over boy troubles.

340
00:33:40,225 --> 00:33:44,458
Time out, Xander. Put yourself
in Buffy's shoes for just a minute. OK?

341
00:33:44,745 --> 00:33:50,058
I'm Buffy, freak of nature, right?
Naturally I pick a freak for a boyfriend,

342
00:33:50,145 --> 00:33:52,864
and then he turns into
Mr Killing Spree, which is...

343
00:33:52,945 --> 00:33:57,178
- Cordy. Get outta my shoes.
- I'm just trying to help, Buffy.

344
00:33:57,625 --> 00:34:00,299
- Buffy, you never...
- Willow, please.

345
00:34:00,385 --> 00:34:04,936
- I can't take this from you, too.
- Let her finish. You at least owe her that.

346
00:34:05,025 --> 00:34:09,258
God, Xander. Could you at least stick
to annoying me on your own behalf?

347
00:34:09,345 --> 00:34:13,339
Fine. You stop acting like an idiot,
I'll stop annoying you.

348
00:34:14,985 --> 00:34:18,262
You wanna talk acting
like an idiot? Nighthawk?

349
00:34:18,345 --> 00:34:20,985
OK. I'm gonna step in now.
Being Referee Guy.

350
00:34:21,065 --> 00:34:24,103
No, let 'em go, Oz.
Talking about it isn't helping.

351
00:34:24,185 --> 00:34:26,495
We might as well try some violence.

352
00:34:29,105 --> 00:34:31,494
I was being sarcastic.

353
00:34:41,545 --> 00:34:43,661
- Xander, kitchen.
- Got your back.

354
00:34:57,785 --> 00:35:00,015
- Are these vampires?
- I don't think so.

355
00:35:00,105 --> 00:35:02,096
Buffy, heads up!

356
00:35:04,025 --> 00:35:06,335
No, not vampires.

357
00:35:20,665 --> 00:35:23,783
Man, this sucker wobbles,
but he won't fall down.

358
00:35:23,865 --> 00:35:26,459
- We gotta get 'em back outside.
- On three.

359
00:35:26,545 --> 00:35:28,741
One... two... three.

360
00:35:33,145 --> 00:35:36,854
OK. We're gonna have to barricade this door.
We need some help out here!

361
00:35:36,945 --> 00:35:39,221
I got him. Go help Buffy.

362
00:35:52,545 --> 00:35:54,536
Pat! Careful.

363
00:35:55,865 --> 00:35:57,856
Hurry.

364
00:36:07,025 --> 00:36:09,016
Go!

365
00:36:15,625 --> 00:36:17,821
She's... Oh, God! Pat!

366
00:36:17,905 --> 00:36:19,896
She's dead.

367
00:36:26,705 --> 00:36:30,096
- What do we do if they get in?
- I kind of think we die.

368
00:36:36,705 --> 00:36:40,824
I don't hear anything. Should we check?

369
00:36:40,905 --> 00:36:43,294
Let's go for it.

370
00:36:50,145 --> 00:36:52,739
- Here.
- Thanks.

371
00:36:56,785 --> 00:37:00,141
- It's me.
- How do we know you're not Zombie Giles?

372
00:37:00,225 --> 00:37:03,217
- Cordelia, do stop being tiresome.
- It's him.

373
00:37:04,385 --> 00:37:07,537
I think the Dead Man's Party's
moved upstairs.

374
00:37:07,625 --> 00:37:11,300
That makes sense. It's the mask
in Joyce's bedroom they're after.

375
00:37:11,385 --> 00:37:13,615
Mask?

376
00:37:13,705 --> 00:37:19,701
The mask holds the power of
a zombie demon, called Ovu Moboni.

377
00:37:19,785 --> 00:37:21,935
Evil Eye.

378
00:37:22,025 --> 00:37:26,383
- I don't think we can get past them.
- Well, what happens if they get the mask?

379
00:37:26,465 --> 00:37:29,856
If one of them puts it on,
they become the demon incarnate.

380
00:37:29,945 --> 00:37:32,016
Worse than a zombie.

381
00:37:32,105 --> 00:37:34,096
Yes, worse.

382
00:37:46,865 --> 00:37:49,061
Oh, God! We thought you were...

383
00:37:59,505 --> 00:38:03,339
Generally speaking, when scary things
get scared, not good.

384
00:38:04,945 --> 00:38:07,300
I live. You die.

385
00:38:16,545 --> 00:38:18,536
Willow, don't look.

386
00:38:33,945 --> 00:38:36,459
Out back!

387
00:38:38,025 --> 00:38:39,823
Not looking. Not looking!

388
00:38:49,905 --> 00:38:52,897
Tell Buffy, Moboni's power lies in his eyes.

389
00:38:55,425 --> 00:38:57,541
She has to go for the eyes to defeat him!

390
00:39:03,025 --> 00:39:04,902
Buffy!

391
00:39:07,385 --> 00:39:08,739
Hey, Pat!

392
00:39:11,625 --> 00:39:13,616
Made you look.

393
00:39:24,705 --> 00:39:26,298
Never mind.

394
00:39:31,705 --> 00:39:33,696
Honey!

395
00:39:35,025 --> 00:39:37,619
- Are you all right?
- Yeah.

396
00:39:38,385 --> 00:39:41,776
So, is this a typical day at the office?

397
00:39:42,545 --> 00:39:44,980
No. This was nothing.

398
00:39:51,945 --> 00:39:54,221
Nice moves.

399
00:39:54,305 --> 00:39:56,296
You, too.

400
00:40:11,465 --> 00:40:14,776
- Do we have an appointment?
- I'd like to have a word with you.

401
00:40:14,865 --> 00:40:20,383
If that word is Buffy, then I have
two words for you: "good" and "riddance".

402
00:40:20,465 --> 00:40:23,537
Now, if you don't mind,
I have an appointment with the Mayor.

403
00:40:23,625 --> 00:40:27,778
- You can't keep her out of this school.
- I think you'll find I can.

404
00:40:27,865 --> 00:40:31,620
- You had no grounds for expelling her.
- I have grounds, precedent

405
00:40:31,705 --> 00:40:34,060
and a tingly kind of feeling.

406
00:40:34,145 --> 00:40:37,456
Buffy Summers is a minor,
and is entitled to a public education.

407
00:40:37,545 --> 00:40:41,175
Your personal dislike of the girl
does not legally entitle you to...

408
00:40:41,265 --> 00:40:44,064
Why don't you take it up
with the city council?

409
00:40:44,865 --> 00:40:48,062
I thought I'd start with
the state supreme court.

410
00:40:49,145 --> 00:40:51,534
You're powerful in local circles,

411
00:40:51,625 --> 00:40:55,858
but I believe I can make life very difficult
for you, professionally speaking.

412
00:40:55,945 --> 00:40:58,619
And Buffy will be allowed back in.

413
00:40:58,705 --> 00:41:01,663
Sorry. I'm not convinced.

414
00:41:04,505 --> 00:41:07,099
Would you like me to convince you?

415
00:41:12,465 --> 00:41:15,856
I mean, I'm not a full-fledged witch.
That takes years.

416
00:41:15,945 --> 00:41:21,623
I just did a couple of pagan blessings and...
a teeny glamour to hide a zit.

417
00:41:21,705 --> 00:41:24,299
- Does it scare you?
- It has.

418
00:41:24,385 --> 00:41:29,539
I tried to communicate with the spirit world,
and I so wasn't ready for that.

419
00:41:29,625 --> 00:41:32,777
It's like being pulled apart inside.

420
00:41:32,865 --> 00:41:36,381
Plus I blew the power
for our whole block. Big scare.

421
00:41:36,865 --> 00:41:41,382
- I wish I could've been there with you.
- Me, too. I really freaked out.

422
00:41:41,465 --> 00:41:44,378
- I am sorry.
- It's OK.

423
00:41:44,465 --> 00:41:47,935
I understand you having to bail.
I can forgive that.

424
00:41:48,705 --> 00:41:53,734
I have to make allowances for what you're
going through and be a grown-up about it.

425
00:41:54,705 --> 00:41:58,141
You're really enjoying this moral
superiority thing, aren't you?

426
00:41:58,225 --> 00:42:01,934
- It's like a drug.
- Fine. OK. I'm the bad.

427
00:42:02,025 --> 00:42:04,665
I can take my lumps... for a while.

428
00:42:04,745 --> 00:42:07,703
All right. I'll stop giving you a hard time.

429
00:42:07,785 --> 00:42:10,140
- Runaway.
- Will.

430
00:42:10,225 --> 00:42:12,296
I'm sorry. Quitter.

431
00:42:13,785 --> 00:42:15,981
- Whiner.
- Bailer.

432
00:42:16,225 --> 00:42:18,216
- Harpy.
- Delinquent.

433
00:42:18,305 --> 00:42:20,945
- Tramp.
- Bad seed.

434
00:42:21,025 --> 00:42:23,539
- Witch.
- Freak.
