1
00:00:02,265 --> 00:00:03,061
This is your objective.

2
00:00:03,145 --> 00:00:05,534
<i>Previously on “Buffy the Vampire Slayer“:</i>

3
00:00:05,625 --> 00:00:07,377
Demon class: Polgara species.

4
00:00:07,465 --> 00:00:10,776
Bone skewers jut from
the creature's forearms during battle.

5
00:00:10,865 --> 00:00:13,698
It's imperative not to damage its arms.

6
00:00:13,785 --> 00:00:15,662
Why can't we damage its arms?

7
00:00:15,745 --> 00:00:17,179
She's an unnecessary risk.

8
00:00:17,265 --> 00:00:21,054
Two of our hostiles broke free
and escaped into the tunnels.

9
00:00:22,585 --> 00:00:24,417
- She's dead.
- I don't understand.

10
00:00:24,505 --> 00:00:28,544
<i>If you think that's enough to kill me,
you really don't know what</i> a <i>slayer is.</i>

11
00:00:28,625 --> 00:00:31,458
- If she wants a fight, we'll give her one.
- It's not safe for any of us.

12
00:00:31,545 --> 00:00:33,616
And when she least expects it...

13
00:00:34,345 --> 00:00:37,542
- Adam.
- Mommy.

14
00:00:38,865 --> 00:00:42,062
Maggie sends me down into the sewers
with a blasto gun.

15
00:00:42,145 --> 00:00:45,422
- The next thing I know, it's raining monsters.
- Hallelujah.

16
00:00:45,505 --> 00:00:50,022
And then this gate slams down behind me,
and I try to use the gun but it goes "phtt".

17
00:00:50,105 --> 00:00:52,665
You're saying that Maggie Walsh set you up?

18
00:00:52,745 --> 00:00:54,816
That's exactly what I'm saying.

19
00:00:54,905 --> 00:00:57,545
She sent me on a one-way recon.

20
00:00:57,625 --> 00:00:59,821
Gotta hand it to you, Goldilocks.

21
00:00:59,905 --> 00:01:02,818
You do have bleeding tragic taste in men.

22
00:01:02,905 --> 00:01:07,263
I got a cousin married to a regurgitating
Frovalox demon that's got better instincts.

23
00:01:07,345 --> 00:01:09,495
What does my taste in men
have to do with it?

24
00:01:09,585 --> 00:01:14,944
Was Riley knitting bootees for your offspring
while Maggie was stringing you up?

25
00:01:19,385 --> 00:01:22,138
You guys think Riley
had something to do with this?

26
00:01:22,225 --> 00:01:28,016
Probably not. But, um... we'd be remiss
if we didn't think of all the possibilities.

27
00:01:29,945 --> 00:01:32,016
Right.

28
00:01:32,105 --> 00:01:33,140
Remiss.

29
00:01:33,225 --> 00:01:36,900
No. No. Maggie made sure
that he was nowhere around...

30
00:01:36,985 --> 00:01:39,943
...when she sent me on this
"make Buffy dead" assignment.

31
00:01:40,025 --> 00:01:43,734
And plus, Riley? He seems like
he wouldn't tell a little white lie...

32
00:01:43,825 --> 00:01:46,658
...let alone a whole bunch of big, dirty ones.

33
00:01:46,745 --> 00:01:48,895
That's why they call it the secret forces.

34
00:01:48,985 --> 00:01:51,943
Cos they kinda keep
the whole lying thing to themselves.

35
00:01:52,025 --> 00:01:57,054
All I know is that Maggie has it in for me.
Which means the Initiative has it in for me.

36
00:01:57,505 --> 00:02:00,941
The mad scientist isn't too keen
on the fact that the Scooby gang...

37
00:02:01,025 --> 00:02:03,175
...knows that the Initiative is up to no good.

38
00:02:03,265 --> 00:02:06,337
Which brings us back
to the "not safe for any of us" concept.

39
00:02:06,425 --> 00:02:10,862
What could have happened
to make Professor Walsh want to kill you?

40
00:02:10,945 --> 00:02:17,385
I don't know. She wasn't keen on the fact that
I was asking a lot of questions, that's for sure.

41
00:02:17,465 --> 00:02:21,254
- You were getting too close to something.
- Clearly.

42
00:02:21,345 --> 00:02:25,020
Although one can only imagine
what she'd be so desperate to hide.

43
00:03:35,545 --> 00:03:38,014
OK, everybody grab a weapon.
We've gotta move.

44
00:03:38,105 --> 00:03:41,336
And storm the Initiative?
Yeah, let's take on those suckers!

45
00:03:41,425 --> 00:03:44,816
- I was thinking more that we'd hide.
- Oh, thank God.

46
00:03:44,905 --> 00:03:47,340
Buffy, I think perhaps
we should talk about this.

47
00:03:47,425 --> 00:03:51,100
We need to relocate some place we're less
likely to be found. We need a plan.

48
00:03:51,185 --> 00:03:53,984
- My place?
- The Initiative guys know how close we are.

49
00:03:54,065 --> 00:03:56,659
They'll check the places that you hang out.

50
00:03:56,745 --> 00:04:00,864
What about your basement? The guys haven't
seen us together much, and there's room.

51
00:04:00,945 --> 00:04:02,538
- Plus, mirror ball.
- Cool!

52
00:04:02,625 --> 00:04:06,300
- Come and boogie at Xander's hideaway.
- Yes. Come boogie.

53
00:04:06,385 --> 00:04:09,423
Absolutely not.
I will not squat in that dank hole.

54
00:04:09,505 --> 00:04:12,179
What? It was good enough for me
but you're above it all?

55
00:04:12,265 --> 00:04:16,418
Precisely. Besides, I don't see
why we can't stay right where we are.

56
00:04:16,505 --> 00:04:21,818
I think it's very unlikely those Initiative boys
are gonna come round here to look for...

57
00:04:21,905 --> 00:04:23,054
Buffy!

58
00:04:24,825 --> 00:04:26,816
God, Buffy. Are you OK?

59
00:04:27,105 --> 00:04:29,540
- What happened?
- You know?

60
00:04:29,625 --> 00:04:33,858
I know something went down. Tell me.

61
00:04:34,305 --> 00:04:36,694
Maggie tried to kill me.

62
00:04:37,665 --> 00:04:40,418
It didn't work, but they're all upset anyway.

63
00:04:40,505 --> 00:04:44,817
OK, listen. I need you to go over everything.
Step by step.

64
00:04:44,905 --> 00:04:48,341
- There has to be some kind of mistake.
- There was no mistake.

65
00:04:48,425 --> 00:04:53,898
- How do you know something happened?
- I was on a mission. But I came back and...

66
00:04:54,505 --> 00:04:59,136
I'm not sure. Look, let's just
keep our heads and not jump to any...

67
00:05:00,385 --> 00:05:02,535
What?

68
00:05:02,625 --> 00:05:05,094
- That's Hostile 17.
- No.

69
00:05:05,185 --> 00:05:08,940
(bad American accent)
I'm just a friend of Xander's.

70
00:05:09,025 --> 00:05:11,016
Bugger it. I'm your guy.

71
00:05:11,105 --> 00:05:13,255
This is Spike. He's, um...

72
00:05:15,345 --> 00:05:17,734
It's a long story. But he's not bad any more.

73
00:05:17,825 --> 00:05:19,145
Hey!

74
00:05:19,225 --> 00:05:22,456
What am I?
A bleedin' broken record? I'm bad!

75
00:05:22,545 --> 00:05:26,618
It's just... I can't bite any more.
Thanks to you wankers.

76
00:05:26,705 --> 00:05:30,335
We've been looking for him
but you've known where he's been all along?

77
00:05:30,425 --> 00:05:33,417
- It's not like that.
- What is it like? What's he doing here?

78
00:05:33,505 --> 00:05:37,021
Leaving you swabs to your dramatics, thanks.

79
00:05:37,105 --> 00:05:40,018
I've got my stories on the telly for that.

80
00:05:40,105 --> 00:05:42,904
By the by, if you're trying to kill her...

81
00:05:50,665 --> 00:05:54,181
Buffy, what is this? You're hiding an HST?

82
00:05:54,265 --> 00:05:56,734
Why don't you back off
and let her ask the questions?

83
00:05:56,825 --> 00:06:00,216
Your boss just tried to make
monster food outta her.

84
00:06:04,625 --> 00:06:11,258
I didn't see much. I wasn't there. All I know
is Professor Walsh told me you were dead.

85
00:06:11,345 --> 00:06:13,461
But then I saw you on the monitors...

86
00:06:14,665 --> 00:06:18,784
This isn't Professor Walsh. There must be
something making her act this way.

87
00:06:18,865 --> 00:06:21,141
Something - I don't know - controlling her.

88
00:06:21,225 --> 00:06:24,741
We think Buffy may have been
becoming too inquisitive...

89
00:06:24,825 --> 00:06:30,298
...that... she was getting close to something
that Professor Walsh was trying to hide.

90
00:06:30,385 --> 00:06:34,219
- Any idea what that might be?
- What about 314? Maybe that's it.

91
00:06:34,305 --> 00:06:37,263
Maybe she was trying to test you.
What if it was only a drill?

92
00:06:37,345 --> 00:06:41,179
Then why did she tell you I was dead?
Riley, it wasn't a test.

93
00:06:41,265 --> 00:06:45,782
See, I've heard rumours that the Initiative
isn't all that we've been told...

94
00:06:45,865 --> 00:06:50,177
...that secretly they're working
towards some darker purpose.

95
00:06:50,265 --> 00:06:54,498
- Something that might harm us all.
- No! That's... that's not what happens there.

96
00:06:54,585 --> 00:06:55,859
- Riley.
- I would know.

97
00:06:55,945 --> 00:06:58,459
No one is sure. We're just trying to sort it out.

98
00:06:58,545 --> 00:07:00,934
- I'll sort it out on my own.
- Riley.

99
00:07:01,025 --> 00:07:03,016
No! Just...

100
00:07:03,945 --> 00:07:05,936
I'm sorry.

101
00:07:34,185 --> 00:07:36,256
What am I?

102
00:07:36,345 --> 00:07:38,734
You're a monster.

103
00:07:40,585 --> 00:07:42,576
I thought so.

104
00:07:43,825 --> 00:07:46,863
- What are you?
- Me? I'm a boy.

105
00:07:47,225 --> 00:07:49,216
A boy.

106
00:07:49,865 --> 00:07:53,574
- How do you work?
- I don't know, I just do.

107
00:07:56,385 --> 00:07:58,376
What's that for?

108
00:08:33,785 --> 00:08:35,776
Dr Walsh?

109
00:08:38,785 --> 00:08:40,776
Adam?

110
00:09:02,385 --> 00:09:04,376
<i>(cartoon on TV)</i>

111
00:09:38,145 --> 00:09:40,375
- That would never happen.
- Well, no, Buff.

112
00:09:40,465 --> 00:09:44,584
That's why they call 'em cartoons,
not documentaries.

113
00:09:44,665 --> 00:09:48,260
Must we have the noise? My head is splitting.

114
00:09:49,265 --> 00:09:51,495
Look who's Cranky Bear in the morning.

115
00:09:51,585 --> 00:09:55,419
Yes, I can't imagine why
I didn't sleep well in my beach ball.

116
00:09:55,505 --> 00:09:59,021
Every time you moved, it made
squeaky noises. it was irritating.

117
00:09:59,105 --> 00:10:02,735
Really? I'm surprised you could hear it
over your Wagnerian snoring.

118
00:10:02,825 --> 00:10:05,465
OK, you guys, could we not, please?

119
00:10:05,545 --> 00:10:10,460
Everything's screwed up enough without you
two doing scenes from my parents' marriage.

120
00:10:10,545 --> 00:10:12,536
- Sorry.
- Sorry.

121
00:10:13,985 --> 00:10:15,464
Thank you.

122
00:10:15,545 --> 00:10:19,618
It'll be OK, Buffy.
Riley's just confused, that's all.

123
00:10:19,705 --> 00:10:21,776
I don't know.

124
00:10:21,865 --> 00:10:26,541
It just seems like things could get heavier.
His whole world's falling apart.

125
00:10:26,625 --> 00:10:29,458
And after everything
you've been through with Angel.

126
00:10:29,545 --> 00:10:33,379
You know, you really should get yourself
a boring boyfriend. Like Xander.

127
00:10:33,465 --> 00:10:37,060
- You can't have Xander.
- That was the idea.

128
00:10:37,145 --> 00:10:39,455
Riley was supposed to be Mr Joe Guy.

129
00:10:39,985 --> 00:10:44,855
We were gonna do dumb things, like hold
hands through the daisies going "tra-la-la".

130
00:10:44,945 --> 00:10:48,415
Poor Buffy. Your life
resists all things average.

131
00:10:48,505 --> 00:10:51,258
So dump him. But you can't have Xander.

132
00:10:51,625 --> 00:10:54,014
I'll try and remember that.

133
00:10:55,145 --> 00:10:57,295
It's too late, anyway.

134
00:10:57,385 --> 00:11:02,414
I'm already at the "I hurt when he hurts,
I smile when he smiles" stage.

135
00:11:02,825 --> 00:11:06,898
- I hate that part.
- I'll just have to make it work.

136
00:11:07,585 --> 00:11:09,974
Turn on the TV. Now!

137
00:11:13,305 --> 00:11:16,263
<i>Sunnydale is still reeling
from news of the crime.</i>

138
00:11:16,345 --> 00:11:19,736
<i>A source in the coroner's office
tells us that the boy was stabbed...</i>

139
00:11:19,825 --> 00:11:25,582
<i>"with what looks like some kind of large
skewer, and his body was then mutilated.</i>

140
00:11:25,665 --> 00:11:29,260
<i>Police have not named a suspect,
and the killer is still at large.</i>

141
00:11:29,345 --> 00:11:32,337
The Polgara demon had a skewer in its arm.

142
00:11:32,425 --> 00:11:35,019
That's the one Maggie
insisted we bring back alive.

143
00:11:35,105 --> 00:11:38,780
- She must have sent it after you.
- And it got distracted. God!

144
00:11:38,865 --> 00:11:41,334
Buffy, it's not your fault.
How could you know?

145
00:11:41,425 --> 00:11:44,417
She's right. You mustn't blame yourself.

146
00:11:45,225 --> 00:11:49,935
I'm not going to. I'm going to
the crime scene to see what I can find out.

147
00:11:50,025 --> 00:11:52,699
Research the Polgara demon.
I wanna know where it is.

148
00:11:52,785 --> 00:11:55,584
I am going to make him pay
for taking that kid's life.

149
00:11:55,665 --> 00:11:58,862
I'll make him die
in ways he can't even imagine.

150
00:12:03,105 --> 00:12:08,737
That would have sounded more commanding
if I wasn't wearing my yummy sushi pyjamas.

151
00:12:12,945 --> 00:12:14,299
Hey!

152
00:12:14,385 --> 00:12:16,422
Where you been all night?

153
00:12:16,505 --> 00:12:21,659
Well, congratulations. I see you and Buffy
have finally gotten past the shy phase.

154
00:12:21,745 --> 00:12:26,899
I wasn't with Buffy. I needed to be alone.
Think some things through.

155
00:12:26,985 --> 00:12:28,976
- What things?
- Hey, you guys.

156
00:12:36,265 --> 00:12:39,576
This is mighty ominous. What's up, man?

157
00:12:41,105 --> 00:12:45,383
- Professor Walsh tried to have Buffy killed.
- What? Did Buffy tell you that?

158
00:12:45,465 --> 00:12:48,981
- I mean, do you have any proof?
- I saw enough to know it's true.

159
00:12:49,065 --> 00:12:52,262
I don't get it. Why?

160
00:12:53,465 --> 00:12:57,857
Buffy thinks that she's getting too close,
that Professor Walsh has some secret.

161
00:12:57,945 --> 00:13:02,018
I can see Buffy getting on Walsh's bad side.
She puts her nose where it doesn't belong.

162
00:13:02,105 --> 00:13:05,382
- What?
- She's a pain. "Why this?" and "Why that?"

163
00:13:05,465 --> 00:13:07,775
- She should die because of that?
- I don't know.

164
00:13:07,865 --> 00:13:11,460
Maybe Professor Walsh found out
that Buffy was up to something bad.

165
00:13:11,545 --> 00:13:15,061
Why does it bug you that I hang with her?
Cos she's a better soldier than you?

166
00:13:15,145 --> 00:13:19,503
- She's using you to infiltrate our operations.
- You're saying she's a spy? You're crazy!

167
00:13:19,585 --> 00:13:22,976
Riley, think about it.
The professor's not stupid.

168
00:13:23,065 --> 00:13:26,820
If she tried to kill Buffy,
maybe Buffy needed killing.

169
00:13:26,905 --> 00:13:29,021
Guys.

170
00:13:29,105 --> 00:13:31,221
Not now, Private.

171
00:13:31,745 --> 00:13:34,021
What is it?

172
00:13:34,105 --> 00:13:37,063
Professor Walsh is dead.

173
00:14:07,385 --> 00:14:10,138
Look at that wound.

174
00:14:10,225 --> 00:14:13,058
She's been staked,
wouldn't you say, brother?

175
00:14:13,145 --> 00:14:16,103
- What?
- Only one person who could do that.

176
00:14:18,985 --> 00:14:23,582
You better not be saying what I think you're
saying. The Polgara demon has a skewer...

177
00:14:23,665 --> 00:14:26,976
- That's your girlfriend's MO.
- That's a serious accusation!

178
00:14:27,065 --> 00:14:29,705
- Ready to deal with the consequences?
- Bring 'em on!

179
00:14:29,785 --> 00:14:32,220
That supernatural freak has blinded you!

180
00:14:32,305 --> 00:14:35,616
Stand back, man. Show some respect.

181
00:14:35,705 --> 00:14:40,415
Listen, everybody's upset,
but arguing isn't gonna help anything.

182
00:14:40,505 --> 00:14:43,941
And it's certainly not
what Professor Walsh would want.

183
00:14:47,625 --> 00:14:49,821
- No, sir.
- All right.

184
00:14:49,905 --> 00:14:53,614
Good. Now, Washington is sending in a team
to do an internal investigation.

185
00:14:53,705 --> 00:14:56,743
- I've been told we have to wait for their word.
- Wait?

186
00:14:56,825 --> 00:14:59,101
This has to be the work
of the Polgara demon.

187
00:14:59,185 --> 00:15:03,418
Probably. Looks like last night
the Polgara escaped through tunnel 72.

188
00:15:03,505 --> 00:15:05,178
- It's out loose?
- I'm afraid so.

189
00:15:05,265 --> 00:15:07,905
- Then we go after it.
- My orders from Washington...

190
00:15:07,985 --> 00:15:12,024
...are for a total lockdown
until they arrive. I'm sorry.

191
00:15:12,425 --> 00:15:16,817
Now, return to your quarters.
There's nothing you can do here.

192
00:15:24,905 --> 00:15:28,023
Listen, Angleman can talk all he wants...

193
00:15:28,105 --> 00:15:31,382
...but I'm still in charge
till the brass gets here.

194
00:15:31,465 --> 00:15:34,776
I say we got a demon to hunt.
Now suit up for armed patrol.

195
00:15:34,865 --> 00:15:40,463
And by that I mean loaded guns.
Target practice is over. We're going for blood.

196
00:15:49,825 --> 00:15:51,702
Let's go! Let's move!

197
00:15:51,785 --> 00:15:55,141
Quick to one side! Establish a perimeter!

198
00:16:04,065 --> 00:16:06,705
<i>(Forrest)</i> Somebody's been stayin' here.

199
00:16:06,785 --> 00:16:09,459
What do you think, a homeless guy?

200
00:16:09,545 --> 00:16:11,661
Could be.

201
00:16:11,745 --> 00:16:14,134
Or a squatter of the demon variety.

202
00:16:14,665 --> 00:16:16,656
Not the Polgara.

203
00:16:16,745 --> 00:16:19,305
Who cares? I see a demon, it dies.

204
00:16:21,865 --> 00:16:23,856
It's warm.

205
00:16:41,785 --> 00:16:43,776
Damn!

206
00:16:46,465 --> 00:16:48,456
<i>(Forrest)</i> Animals.

207
00:17:26,745 --> 00:17:29,100
Buffy.

208
00:17:29,185 --> 00:17:31,176
Hey.

209
00:17:31,665 --> 00:17:33,656
Hey.

210
00:17:33,745 --> 00:17:38,376
Look, I'm sorry about earlier.
I know that everyone came on pretty strong.

211
00:17:38,465 --> 00:17:41,378
And the Spike thing
isn't as tweaked as it looked.

212
00:17:41,465 --> 00:17:45,857
OK, maybe it is, but there's an explanation
that almost makes sense.

213
00:17:47,305 --> 00:17:51,936
Hello? I'm apologising here.
And I think that's pretty big of me...

214
00:17:52,025 --> 00:17:56,019
...considering I'm the one who was
almost made a demon sandwich.

215
00:17:56,105 --> 00:17:59,496
This is the part where you throw me a bone.

216
00:18:00,225 --> 00:18:02,216
Maggie's dead.

217
00:18:04,225 --> 00:18:06,216
Happy now?

218
00:18:07,785 --> 00:18:11,983
How can you ask me that?
Of course I'm not happy.

219
00:18:13,105 --> 00:18:15,142
What happened?

220
00:18:15,225 --> 00:18:17,455
- That's classified.
- Classifi...

221
00:18:18,625 --> 00:18:23,017
The Polgara. It got her and escaped, didn't it?

222
00:18:24,145 --> 00:18:28,139
I'm gonna find it.
I'm gonna find it and destroy it.

223
00:18:28,225 --> 00:18:32,298
And then you can stop asking me
how happy all this death makes me.

224
00:18:45,505 --> 00:18:46,415
Howdy.

225
00:18:46,505 --> 00:18:51,215
I just got your message a minute ago.
I was in class, but I was about to call you.

226
00:18:51,305 --> 00:18:54,502
I had so much fun the other night.
Those spells.

227
00:18:55,265 --> 00:18:57,620
Yeah, that was nice.

228
00:18:57,705 --> 00:19:01,699
I hope you don't think that I just
come over for the spells and everything.

229
00:19:01,785 --> 00:19:06,143
I mean, I really like just talking
and hanging out with you and stuff.

230
00:19:07,425 --> 00:19:10,816
I know that. But you wanna do a spell.

231
00:19:11,745 --> 00:19:15,500
Yeah. But only because
it's really important. There's this...

232
00:19:15,585 --> 00:19:19,101
No, you don't have to explain.
I don't mind. Really.

233
00:19:19,185 --> 00:19:22,894
I've been thinking about
that last spell we did all day.

234
00:19:22,985 --> 00:19:26,501
You have? Well, this one
should be really fun, too.

235
00:19:26,585 --> 00:19:30,818
We conjure the goddess Thespia
to help us locate demonic energy in the area.

236
00:19:30,905 --> 00:19:34,261
- It shouldn't be too tricky.
- The goddess Thespia?

237
00:19:34,345 --> 00:19:38,976
- Are you sure we're ready for that?
- You and me? This is beneath us.

238
00:19:40,945 --> 00:19:43,334
OK, if you say so.

239
00:19:44,105 --> 00:19:47,257
<i>(♪ “Romeo Had Juliette“ by Lou Reed)</i>

240
00:19:59,345 --> 00:20:02,576
- You're killin' me here.
- Missed you, too. The joint's jumpin'.

241
00:20:02,665 --> 00:20:07,421
You know. I'm making some changes with
my life. I'm getting away from my old image.

242
00:20:07,505 --> 00:20:10,577
- As a double-dealing snitch?
- You think I'm blowing smoke...

243
00:20:10,665 --> 00:20:15,262
...but after those apocalypse demons nearly
did me in, I had a spiritual experience.

244
00:20:15,345 --> 00:20:20,419
That's swell, but have you heard anything
about a Polgara demon doing some killings?

245
00:20:20,505 --> 00:20:24,214
See, that's the thing. I don't talk
behind people's backs no more.

246
00:20:24,305 --> 00:20:29,141
And I'm bringing some class to the joint.
It's Willy's Place. Brings in a better clientele.

247
00:20:29,225 --> 00:20:33,537
I got one of those deep fryers. These demons
just go crazy for chicken fingers.

248
00:20:34,825 --> 00:20:39,661
If they see me dealing with you, I'm just the
same Willy, working both sides of the street.

249
00:20:39,745 --> 00:20:44,137
- I'm gonna have to punch you.
- Just once, and it don't have to hurt.

250
00:20:45,265 --> 00:20:46,494
Ow! Ow!

251
00:20:46,585 --> 00:20:49,976
- Not yet. I haven't touched you.
- Oh, sorry. Right.

252
00:20:50,545 --> 00:20:52,980
Right. Go ahead. Wait.

253
00:20:53,065 --> 00:20:54,942
No. I can't talk to you...

254
00:20:57,585 --> 00:21:00,099
What have you heard about the Polgara?

255
00:21:00,825 --> 00:21:03,419
Heard there was one around
a week or two back.

256
00:21:03,505 --> 00:21:06,065
Word was you got him,
you and those army guys.

257
00:21:06,145 --> 00:21:10,139
- And that was the last you heard?
- Yeah. As far as I know, he's off the streets.

258
00:21:10,225 --> 00:21:14,105
What about those army guys?
You heard anything about 314?

259
00:21:22,025 --> 00:21:24,460
What are you doing here? Following me?

260
00:21:24,545 --> 00:21:28,015
You told me you were tracking
the Polgara demon. I thought I'd help.

261
00:21:28,105 --> 00:21:32,622
But now I see you're not hunting demons,
you're socialising with them - again.

262
00:21:32,705 --> 00:21:36,619
I thought you were supposed to be
killing these things, not buying them drinks.

263
00:21:36,705 --> 00:21:40,778
Smooth, Officer Riley. They teach you
those undercover moves in Special Forces?

264
00:21:40,865 --> 00:21:45,177
- I'm serious. What are you doing here?
- Just coolin' her dog, like the rest of us.

265
00:21:45,265 --> 00:21:49,975
- Why don't you sit down, relax?
- I want you to tell me. Who are you?

266
00:21:51,385 --> 00:21:53,661
How about some chicken fingers
on the house?

267
00:21:53,745 --> 00:21:55,782
- Shut up.
- I'm just saying...

268
00:21:55,865 --> 00:21:59,017
I said shut up! Or maybe you'd like
to go back to the lab with me.

269
00:21:59,105 --> 00:22:02,257
I'm sure the coats would love
to classify a... whatever you are.

270
00:22:02,345 --> 00:22:05,178
Leave him alone, Riley. He's human.

271
00:22:05,265 --> 00:22:08,018
- So he's human.
- You're shaking.

272
00:22:08,105 --> 00:22:12,144
He just harbours demons.
Which makes him a good guy like you?

273
00:22:12,745 --> 00:22:17,376
- The truth, Buffy. Now.
- You have it. You are just too screwed up...

274
00:22:17,465 --> 00:22:20,264
..because of what happened
to Walsh to see it. Let go!

275
00:22:20,345 --> 00:22:22,222
Hold it! You!

276
00:22:23,825 --> 00:22:25,941
No leaving till I say so. Got it?

277
00:22:26,025 --> 00:22:28,539
Hey. We got new rules here. No killing.

278
00:22:29,225 --> 00:22:33,742
Right, except the rules don't seem
to apply much these days, do they?

279
00:22:35,785 --> 00:22:39,665
Like if I shot you right now, I don't know
if I'd have a corpse on my hands...

280
00:22:39,745 --> 00:22:41,895
- ..or one pissed-off vampire.
- Riley.

281
00:22:41,985 --> 00:22:47,105
I mean, who do you believe? First
it sounds like lies, then it sounds like truth.

282
00:22:48,385 --> 00:22:50,183
Riley.

283
00:23:07,025 --> 00:23:09,414
What's happening to me?

284
00:23:25,225 --> 00:23:28,217
Riley, why don't you lie down?

285
00:23:29,145 --> 00:23:31,261
You'll be more comfortable.

286
00:23:32,785 --> 00:23:34,776
Stop it.

287
00:23:34,865 --> 00:23:36,856
I can't. It's like...

288
00:23:37,945 --> 00:23:40,221
...something's crawling inside.

289
00:23:40,305 --> 00:23:42,740
No. You're hurting yourself.

290
00:23:44,705 --> 00:23:46,776
Come here.

291
00:23:46,865 --> 00:23:48,856
OK. Sh.

292
00:23:49,785 --> 00:23:52,379
I thought I knew... but I don't.

293
00:23:53,665 --> 00:23:56,134
- I don't know anything.
- Sh.

294
00:23:56,225 --> 00:24:00,014
- You're sick. Once you get some rest...
- No. Buffy...

295
00:24:01,785 --> 00:24:04,618
I don't know anything.

296
00:24:04,705 --> 00:24:07,618
I don't know which team I'm on.

297
00:24:08,665 --> 00:24:11,054
Who the bad guys are.

298
00:24:13,465 --> 00:24:17,538
Maybe I'm the bad guy.
Maybe I'm the thing you should kill.

299
00:24:18,265 --> 00:24:21,178
No. Don't you even think that.

300
00:24:22,105 --> 00:24:25,780
OK, listen to me. You're sick.

301
00:24:25,865 --> 00:24:28,903
You just need to get some sleep.

302
00:24:28,985 --> 00:24:31,864
Please. Lie down for me.

303
00:24:35,625 --> 00:24:37,616
Come on.

304
00:24:52,505 --> 00:24:54,496
You're gonna be OK.

305
00:25:17,065 --> 00:25:20,296
- How is he?
- This isn't just grief making him act this way.

306
00:25:20,385 --> 00:25:23,582
Something's affecting him physically
and it's getting worse.

307
00:25:23,665 --> 00:25:27,454
- You think Walsh did something to him?
- I don't know, but I'm ready to find out.

308
00:25:27,545 --> 00:25:31,618
- Tough, with Maggie's deadness and all.
- She must have kept records somewhere.

309
00:25:31,705 --> 00:25:34,140
About Riley, about 314, about all of it.

310
00:25:34,225 --> 00:25:37,058
And she wasn't the only person
that knew what she was up to.

311
00:25:37,145 --> 00:25:40,456
- So what's the plan?
- Giles, Anya, keep researching.

312
00:25:40,545 --> 00:25:42,934
Xander, you and I are going undercover.

313
00:25:43,025 --> 00:25:45,539
Hey! Remember before?

314
00:25:45,625 --> 00:25:49,937
No Xander. Not in a boyfriend way
or a "lead him to a certain death" way.

315
00:25:50,025 --> 00:25:53,905
- He's the only one with military experience.
- It's not like he was in the Nam.

316
00:25:53,985 --> 00:25:58,377
- He was GI Joe for one night.
- It's OK, Anya. I've backed up Buffy before.

317
00:25:58,465 --> 00:26:02,584
Can't you do something else to help them?
Like Xerox hand-outs or something?

318
00:26:02,665 --> 00:26:04,815
I'll be careful.

319
00:26:04,905 --> 00:26:06,816
Promise.

320
00:26:08,945 --> 00:26:13,940
How do you plan to get into the Initiative?
I'm sure their security system's impenetrable.

321
00:26:14,025 --> 00:26:18,064
I have my clearance.
I'm hoping she didn't have time to revoke it.

322
00:26:18,145 --> 00:26:23,265
Well, as for the whereabouts of this Polgara
demon, I'm afraid we've not turned up much.

323
00:26:23,345 --> 00:26:27,464
- No reports since its original capture.
- Then we'll just have to keep looking.

324
00:26:29,025 --> 00:26:31,744
(Tara) So, the square is Sunnydale?

325
00:26:31,825 --> 00:26:34,419
Right. It's like a map.

326
00:26:34,505 --> 00:26:38,783
We both take different parts of the potion,
and when we do the incantation...

327
00:26:38,865 --> 00:26:42,176
...we both blow it onto the square
at the exact same time.

328
00:26:42,265 --> 00:26:45,223
- But how does it work?
- Well, that's the cool part.

329
00:26:45,305 --> 00:26:48,855
When the potion mixes
and Thespia's called...

330
00:26:48,945 --> 00:26:53,143
...it creates this mist
over the parts where the demons are.

331
00:26:53,225 --> 00:26:56,695
It even makes different colours
for different breeds.

332
00:26:56,785 --> 00:26:58,219
Wow.

333
00:26:59,905 --> 00:27:02,181
You ready?

334
00:27:12,865 --> 00:27:15,220
Let's do it.

335
00:27:17,665 --> 00:27:21,545
Thespia, we walk in shadow.

336
00:27:21,625 --> 00:27:23,821
Walk in blindness.

337
00:27:23,905 --> 00:27:26,818
You are the protector of the night.

338
00:27:26,905 --> 00:27:28,896
Thespia, goddess,"

339
00:27:28,985 --> 00:27:32,296
...ruler of all darkness, we implore you...

340
00:27:32,385 --> 00:27:36,174
...open a window
to the world of the underbeing.

341
00:27:41,105 --> 00:27:44,177
With your knowledge, may we go in safety.

342
00:27:44,265 --> 00:27:47,462
With your grace,
may we speak of your benevolence.

343
00:27:52,105 --> 00:27:54,335
Or not.

344
00:28:00,585 --> 00:28:03,782
- Seems pretty quiet.
- Usually is this time of...

345
00:28:19,025 --> 00:28:22,143
- Buff, maybe you should check the look later.
- Sh!

346
00:28:22,225 --> 00:28:23,545
Ow!

347
00:28:23,625 --> 00:28:25,457
- What'd you do that for?
- Sorry.

348
00:28:25,545 --> 00:28:28,537
I'm the only one that can pass
the retinal scan.

349
00:28:28,785 --> 00:28:30,059
Ew!

350
00:28:30,145 --> 00:28:33,536
- I don't wanna see that.
- Retinal scan, Xander.

351
00:28:35,945 --> 00:28:39,495
Well, we'll know in a few seconds
if my clearance is still good.

352
00:28:39,585 --> 00:28:42,145
Or if we're about die at the hands
of 50 military goons.

353
00:28:42,225 --> 00:28:45,934
<i>Retinal scan recorded. Summers, Buffy.</i>

354
00:28:47,225 --> 00:28:52,015
Why am I not entirely comforted
by the arrival of the man-sized microwave?

355
00:29:04,265 --> 00:29:06,575
Holy moly!

356
00:29:06,665 --> 00:29:08,656
I know.

357
00:29:09,625 --> 00:29:13,414
I totally get it now.
Can I have sex with Riley, too?

358
00:29:22,225 --> 00:29:25,058
- Pretend to make out with me!
- What are you talking about?

359
00:29:25,145 --> 00:29:30,174
Well, I... you know, in the movies,
the guy and the girl have to hide.

360
00:29:30,265 --> 00:29:33,860
Please! Could you possibly
draw more attention to us?

361
00:29:39,905 --> 00:29:44,376
This is the Initiative. Military guys and
scientists do not make out with each other.

362
00:29:44,465 --> 00:29:47,856
Maybe that's what's wrong with the world.
Ever think about that?

363
00:29:47,945 --> 00:29:53,463
I totally failed. It wasn't even like
the spell went wrong. It just... wouldn't.

364
00:29:53,545 --> 00:29:56,583
If it's any consolation,
we haven't fared much better here.

365
00:29:56,665 --> 00:30:01,182
- Really? ls Riley OK?
- Well, he's asleep. Finally.

366
00:30:01,265 --> 00:30:05,657
But he doesn't look good.
And the research is troubling as well.

367
00:30:05,745 --> 00:30:09,659
I mean, this demon we're after
seems highly atypical for a Polgara.

368
00:30:09,745 --> 00:30:15,775
This child it killed was mutilated. There's no
recorded cases of a Polgara having done that.

369
00:30:15,865 --> 00:30:18,425
Also the Polgara have to eat every two hours.

370
00:30:18,505 --> 00:30:21,577
With the low IQ, you have a demon
who's not exactly low-profile.

371
00:30:21,665 --> 00:30:26,501
So how has he been hiding out in Sunnydale
for two days without anyone seeing him?

372
00:30:26,585 --> 00:30:28,701
Exactly.

373
00:30:31,945 --> 00:30:34,221
- Riley.
- Where's Buffy?

374
00:30:34,305 --> 00:30:36,660
She went out. Can I get you something?

375
00:30:38,305 --> 00:30:42,139
- Just tell me where she is.
- You're not well, Riley. You need to rest.

376
00:30:42,225 --> 00:30:44,978
Did she find the Polgara? Huh? Is that it?

377
00:30:45,065 --> 00:30:47,579
- No, we're still looking, but...
- But what?

378
00:30:47,665 --> 00:30:49,975
She went to find out what's making you sick.

379
00:30:50,065 --> 00:30:54,298
I'm not sick! You're telling me
she went to the Initiative?

380
00:30:55,105 --> 00:30:58,860
- Riley, she's just trying to help you.
- She doesn't belong there.

381
00:30:59,545 --> 00:31:00,740
Riley, listen...

382
00:31:00,825 --> 00:31:04,375
- Stand away from the stairs.
- No. You're gonna get Buffy killed.

383
00:31:04,465 --> 00:31:05,944
Hey!

384
00:31:08,425 --> 00:31:09,938
You all right?

385
00:31:12,705 --> 00:31:16,858
How many of the men are still out?
The longer they go without their meds...

386
00:31:16,945 --> 00:31:20,620
- Everyone's off their schedules.
- It's dangerous.

387
00:31:20,705 --> 00:31:23,982
I don't wanna think about the damage
our guys could do in withdrawal.

388
00:31:24,065 --> 00:31:26,705
They won't understand
what's happening to them.

389
00:31:26,785 --> 00:31:31,655
They don't know they've been getting meds
in their food, so we'd better get them in here.

390
00:31:32,025 --> 00:31:36,417
We've located all but a few. The last ones
were in bad shape, but we stabilised them.

391
00:31:36,505 --> 00:31:40,419
But Finn wasn't one of them, right?
Find him. He's the one I care about.

392
00:31:40,505 --> 00:31:44,100
- He's too important to the work to lose now.
- Indeed.

393
00:31:52,545 --> 00:31:55,059
Double shot of O neg, 'keep.

394
00:31:55,145 --> 00:31:58,217
Make it the good stuff.
I don't want no freakin' orang-utan.

395
00:31:58,305 --> 00:32:00,296
Got ya.

396
00:32:01,065 --> 00:32:03,341
Been a pisser of a day.

397
00:32:03,425 --> 00:32:06,065
Those army blokes are on the tear.

398
00:32:06,145 --> 00:32:09,740
They ran me outta my place.
And all over town.

399
00:32:11,585 --> 00:32:13,895
Yeah, what's up?

400
00:32:15,065 --> 00:32:17,454
Keep me posted. I'll be in records.

401
00:32:34,185 --> 00:32:37,974
I don't generally like to kill humans,
but I've learned it pays to be flexible.

402
00:32:38,065 --> 00:32:41,615
- I was wondering when you'd turn up.
- Oh, darn!

403
00:32:41,705 --> 00:32:44,094
So this isn't a surprise?

404
00:32:44,545 --> 00:32:49,494
Now, you can tell me what you did to Riley
and after that we can take a tour of room 314.

405
00:32:49,585 --> 00:32:54,261
Somebody's coming, you know. They've
already seen you on the security monitors.

406
00:32:54,345 --> 00:32:57,064
Monitors are nonfunctional at this time, sir.

407
00:32:57,145 --> 00:33:00,263
- Went down about ten minutes ago.
- What? I didn't do that.

408
00:33:00,345 --> 00:33:03,622
Thank God for small favours
and we'll worry about details later.

409
00:33:03,705 --> 00:33:06,538
Finn, take this girl
to the stockade immediately.

410
00:33:06,625 --> 00:33:11,415
Riley, he can tell us what we need to know.
Maggie wanted me dead, didn't she?

411
00:33:11,505 --> 00:33:16,579
She did. But understand, the Initiative
has no interest in eliminating the Slayer.

412
00:33:16,985 --> 00:33:20,341
- It was her own vendetta.
- Why? Spell it out for me.

413
00:33:20,425 --> 00:33:23,497
- I feel a "dumb blonde" attack coming on.
- I don't know.

414
00:33:23,585 --> 00:33:25,974
Well, think harder.

415
00:33:27,025 --> 00:33:29,460
It was... the project.

416
00:33:30,025 --> 00:33:32,016
Project? 314.

417
00:33:32,545 --> 00:33:34,297
It...

418
00:33:36,785 --> 00:33:39,254
- It escaped.
- (Riley) That's enough.

419
00:33:39,785 --> 00:33:43,744
You're making her sound like
some psychopath. She wasn't like that.

420
00:33:43,825 --> 00:33:46,658
- She was a brilliant woman.
- She was. It's not...

421
00:33:46,745 --> 00:33:50,101
She tried to help people. This is
the way you want them to remember her?

422
00:33:50,185 --> 00:33:53,143
- Walsh was feeding you drugs.
- You're doing this to me.

423
00:33:53,225 --> 00:33:55,739
- This all started because of you.
- Just listen.

424
00:33:55,825 --> 00:33:59,739
- I am trying to help you get to the truth.
- You want truth? Then tell me.

425
00:33:59,825 --> 00:34:03,181
- What did you do to her, Buffy?
- Stop it! I didn't do anything!

426
00:34:03,265 --> 00:34:06,462
Riley, stop! This isn't about us!

427
00:34:06,545 --> 00:34:11,221
Everything that we need to know is here.
We just need to find out what was in 314.

428
00:34:15,465 --> 00:34:16,899
Me.

429
00:34:20,625 --> 00:34:23,424
I've been thinking about the world.

430
00:34:24,545 --> 00:34:26,980
I wanted to see it. Learn it.

431
00:34:28,065 --> 00:34:31,581
I saw the inside of that boy
and it was beautiful.

432
00:34:31,665 --> 00:34:34,817
But it didn't tell me about the world.

433
00:34:34,905 --> 00:34:37,419
It just made me feel.

434
00:34:37,505 --> 00:34:39,894
So now...

435
00:34:39,985 --> 00:34:42,704
...I want to learn about me.

436
00:34:42,785 --> 00:34:44,776
Why I feel.

437
00:34:45,785 --> 00:34:47,901
What I am.

438
00:34:49,305 --> 00:34:51,535
So I came home.

439
00:34:56,905 --> 00:35:02,264
I'm a kinematically redundant, biomechanical
demonoid, designed by Maggie Walsh.

440
00:35:02,345 --> 00:35:05,337
She called me Adam and I called her Mother.

441
00:35:05,425 --> 00:35:08,463
Adam, Maggie would want you
to stand down.

442
00:35:08,665 --> 00:35:11,737
Yes. But I seem to have a design flaw.

443
00:35:15,305 --> 00:35:20,857
In addition to organic material, I'm equipped
with GP2D11 infrared detectors...

444
00:35:20,945 --> 00:35:23,255
...a harmonic decelerator, plus DC servo.

445
00:35:23,345 --> 00:35:25,985
She pieced you together
from parts of other demons.

446
00:35:26,065 --> 00:35:28,864
And man. And machine.

447
00:35:30,105 --> 00:35:35,100
Which tells me what I am... but not who I am.

448
00:35:37,345 --> 00:35:39,734
Mother wrote things down.

449
00:35:40,785 --> 00:35:43,379
Hard data, but also her feelings.

450
00:35:44,265 --> 00:35:48,816
That's howl learned that I have a job here.
And that she loved me.

451
00:35:48,905 --> 00:35:51,624
She wasn't your mother.
And she didn't love you.

452
00:35:51,705 --> 00:35:55,221
- Is that really the issue?
- She made you because she was a scientist.

453
00:35:55,305 --> 00:35:56,818
Riley.

454
00:35:57,945 --> 00:35:59,219
Riley Finn.

455
00:36:01,025 --> 00:36:03,096
- Stop! Those files...
- Oh!

456
00:36:03,425 --> 00:36:06,656
- Mother created you, too.
- Maggie is not my mother.

457
00:36:06,745 --> 00:36:10,136
- I have a mother. A real...
- A birth mother, yes.

458
00:36:10,225 --> 00:36:15,459
But after you met Maggie, she was the one
who shaped your basic operating system.

459
00:36:15,545 --> 00:36:19,015
She taught you how to think, how to feel.

460
00:36:19,105 --> 00:36:22,177
She fed you chemicals to make you stronger.

461
00:36:22,265 --> 00:36:24,654
Your mind and body.

462
00:36:24,745 --> 00:36:29,262
She said that you and I
were her favourite children. Her art.

463
00:36:29,345 --> 00:36:32,064
That makes us brothers. Family.

464
00:36:32,145 --> 00:36:34,739
No. I'm not like you.

465
00:36:35,545 --> 00:36:38,344
That's pain, isn't it? Why?

466
00:36:39,425 --> 00:36:44,420
Because your feeding schedule,
the chemicals, have been interrupted?

467
00:36:44,505 --> 00:36:47,224
Or do you miss her? Tell me.

468
00:36:47,305 --> 00:36:49,865
- I'll kill you.
- You won't.

469
00:36:49,945 --> 00:36:53,734
- You haven't been programmed to.
- I cannot be programmed. I'm a man.

470
00:36:53,825 --> 00:36:55,623
It's here.

471
00:36:55,705 --> 00:36:58,299
The plan she had for us. What happens.

472
00:36:59,345 --> 00:37:02,417
- How it ends.
- No.

473
00:37:02,505 --> 00:37:04,621
- Do you want to hear?
- No!

474
00:37:22,865 --> 00:37:24,856
Doctor.

475
00:37:43,425 --> 00:37:45,462
Thank you.

476
00:37:45,545 --> 00:37:48,936
This has been... very interesting.

477
00:37:53,585 --> 00:37:55,576
(man) Back away from the door!

478
00:38:04,865 --> 00:38:06,936
Riley, are you OK?

479
00:38:08,825 --> 00:38:10,816
Secure the room!

480
00:38:12,385 --> 00:38:15,457
We got a demon in here.
It escaped through that vent.

481
00:38:15,545 --> 00:38:18,219
It's not the Polgara. It looks sort of half man.

482
00:38:18,305 --> 00:38:22,139
- Right, and you just happened to be here.
- She's telling the truth. I saw it.

483
00:38:22,225 --> 00:38:25,138
It killed Angleman. Go. Now!

484
00:38:25,705 --> 00:38:27,821
Yes, sir!

485
00:38:33,185 --> 00:38:35,984
- He needs to go to a hospital.
- We'll take it from here.

486
00:38:36,065 --> 00:38:38,215
- I'm going with him.
- A military hospital.

487
00:38:38,305 --> 00:38:40,342
- No!
- Back off!

488
00:38:40,425 --> 00:38:43,781
We take care of our own
around here, understand?

489
00:38:46,025 --> 00:38:48,016
Buffy.

490
00:38:57,305 --> 00:38:59,296
Escort them out.

491
00:39:00,185 --> 00:39:02,176
Buffy.

492
00:39:10,425 --> 00:39:12,416
<i>(growls)</i>

493
00:39:14,705 --> 00:39:17,982
What did you expect, Spike?
A welcome party?

494
00:39:18,065 --> 00:39:21,421
Word's out. You've been
making war on the demon world.

495
00:39:21,505 --> 00:39:23,496
- War?
- With the Slayer!

496
00:39:24,385 --> 00:39:28,379
You kill other demons,
and the rest of us don't hold with that.

497
00:39:28,465 --> 00:39:33,414
Still, if I see you around here again,
I'll be inclined to break that code.

498
00:39:33,865 --> 00:39:35,981
Do you understand?

499
00:39:46,065 --> 00:39:47,942
No word from Riley?

500
00:39:48,025 --> 00:39:52,974
Nothing. The Initiative probably
has him locked in some medical ward.

501
00:39:53,065 --> 00:39:58,299
I can't get near him until I have a better plan
than just storming in and getting us all shot.

502
00:39:58,385 --> 00:40:01,776
Yeah, you might wanna
work the kinks out of that one.

503
00:40:01,865 --> 00:40:05,460
What am I gonna do?
He needs me and I can't get near him.

504
00:40:06,705 --> 00:40:09,345
You'll find a way.

505
00:40:09,425 --> 00:40:14,420
I can't spend all of my energy going after
the Initiative. Not while Adam's out there.

506
00:40:14,505 --> 00:40:16,894
He's really that big of a threat?

507
00:40:17,985 --> 00:40:22,536
I could barely fight him. It was like Maggie
designed him to be the ultimate warrior.

508
00:40:22,625 --> 00:40:26,095
He's smart and fast. He gave the commando
guys the slip with no problem.

509
00:40:26,185 --> 00:40:28,574
There's gotta be a flaw.

510
00:40:28,665 --> 00:40:33,023
I think the part where he's pure evil
and kills randomly was an oversight.

511
00:40:34,985 --> 00:40:37,374
I never should have let them take Riley.

512
00:40:38,425 --> 00:40:40,621
I need to be with him.

513
00:40:40,705 --> 00:40:44,664
- I'm sure he's OK.
- There's no way he can be.

514
00:40:44,745 --> 00:40:48,534
Everything he's ever believed in
has been taken away or...

515
00:40:49,985 --> 00:40:51,976
He's alone.

516
00:40:52,905 --> 00:40:54,896
He has nothing to hold on to.
