Let's move on. 192 00:15:58,985 --> 00:16:00,942 - I'm movin'. - Me, too. 193 00:16:01,665 --> 00:16:03,622 Good. 194 00:16:03,985 --> 00:16:05,862 Great. 195 00:16:12,305 --> 00:16:15,377 So, why do you think Spike made with the head games? 196 00:16:15,465 --> 00:16:19,015 He's all dressed up with no one to bite. Gotta get his ya-yas somehow. 197 00:16:19,105 --> 00:16:22,336 I think it was more than that. I think it was Adam. 198 00:16:23,385 --> 00:16:26,423 Spike's working for Adam? After all we've done for... 199 00:16:26,505 --> 00:16:28,496 Nah. I can't even act surprised. 200 00:16:28,905 --> 00:16:33,024 I just went to Adam's lair and he was gone. But Spike just happened to be there. 201 00:16:33,105 --> 00:16:36,143 He made a big noise about getting information off the disks. 202 00:16:36,225 --> 00:16:38,535 Oh. I decrypted 'em. 203 00:16:38,625 --> 00:16:42,619 Well, they decrypted themselves, but I almost had it. 204 00:16:42,705 --> 00:16:46,539 - What did they say? - A bunch of stuff we already knew about 314. 205 00:16:46,625 --> 00:16:49,060 But it also said there's some final phase... 206 00:16:49,145 --> 00:16:54,424 ...where Adam manufactures a bunch of creepy cyberdemonoids like him. 207 00:16:54,505 --> 00:16:57,975 There's a special lab in the Initiative, but it didn't say where. 208 00:16:58,065 --> 00:17:00,500 Adam fed Spike those disks. It has to be. 209 00:17:00,905 --> 00:17:04,580 He wanted me to know about his evil-guy assembly line. 210 00:17:04,665 --> 00:17:08,659 - This lab, it's in the Initiative? - Hidden somewhere. 211 00:17:10,825 --> 00:17:13,783 I'll give the demon his due. He thought this one out. 212 00:17:15,425 --> 00:17:17,018 What do you mean? 213 00:17:17,105 --> 00:17:20,575 Think how overcrowded the containment cells are in the Initiative. 214 00:17:20,665 --> 00:17:24,579 Those demons were just too easy to catch. It's like they wanted in that place. 215 00:17:24,665 --> 00:17:26,258 The Trojan Horse. 216 00:17:26,345 --> 00:17:29,895 Adam's making sure the demons attack the Initiative from the inside. 217 00:17:29,985 --> 00:17:32,943 Demons versus soldiers. Massacre, massacre. 218 00:17:33,025 --> 00:17:37,223 And Adam has a neat pile of body parts to start assembling his army. 219 00:17:37,585 --> 00:17:40,259 Diabolical, yet... gross. 220 00:17:41,425 --> 00:17:45,100 Does anybody else miss the mayor - "I just wanna be a big snake"? 221 00:17:45,185 --> 00:17:48,416 I've gotta shut him down. His final phase is about to start. 222 00:17:48,505 --> 00:17:51,896 - We need to warn the Initiative. - They're not gonna listen to me. 223 00:17:51,985 --> 00:17:54,738 - Riley? - He's a deserter. 224 00:17:54,825 --> 00:17:58,420 He got some bad news anyway and kinda took off. 225 00:18:01,825 --> 00:18:03,418 OK, I'm confused again. 226 00:18:03,505 --> 00:18:07,339 Adam has this evil plan. Why is he so anxious for you to know about it? 227 00:18:07,425 --> 00:18:10,861 He wants me there. Probably figures I'll even the kill ratio. 228 00:18:10,945 --> 00:18:14,495 He's not worried you might kill, oh say... him? 229 00:18:15,185 --> 00:18:17,381 No. He's really not. 230 00:18:18,985 --> 00:18:21,977 She's coming. I can feel it. 231 00:18:22,745 --> 00:18:26,579 Good on you. Got a chunk of prognosticating demon in there, eh? 232 00:18:28,425 --> 00:18:34,216 Now, if you'll just get this chip out of my cranium, I'll be out of your way. 233 00:18:34,305 --> 00:18:39,778 Mind the hairline. I don't fancy fussing with a comb-over once I resume my killing ways. 234 00:18:42,105 --> 00:18:45,143 - Come on. We had a deal. - When she's here. 235 00:18:48,945 --> 00:18:53,416 There's certainly no lack of supplies. I only wish I knew which ones would kill Adam. 236 00:18:53,505 --> 00:18:57,339 Riley said his power source is a uranium core embedded inside his chest. 237 00:18:57,425 --> 00:18:59,018 Probably near the spine. 238 00:18:59,105 --> 00:19:03,258 Great. So we just ask him to lie down quietly while we do some exploratory surgery. 239 00:19:03,345 --> 00:19:09,136 What about magic? Some kinda... I don't know... uranium-extracting spell? 240 00:19:12,185 --> 00:19:15,576 - I know. I'm reaching. - Perhaps a paralysing spell. 241 00:19:16,265 --> 00:19:19,496 - Only I can't perform the incantation of this. - Right. 242 00:19:19,585 --> 00:19:22,737 Don't you have to speak it in Sumerian or something? 243 00:19:22,825 --> 00:19:25,738 I do speak Sumerian. But it's not that. 244 00:19:25,825 --> 00:19:31,138 Only an experienced witch can incant it within striking distance of the subject. 245 00:19:31,225 --> 00:19:33,899 See what you get for taking French and not Sumerian? 246 00:19:33,985 --> 00:19:37,376 - What was I thinking? - So no problem. All we need is Combo Buffy. 247 00:19:37,465 --> 00:19:42,335 Her with slayer strength, Giles's multilingual know-how and Willow's witchy power. 248 00:19:43,425 --> 00:19:46,816 Yeah. Don't tell me. I'm just full of helpful suggestions. 249 00:19:46,905 --> 00:19:49,055 As a matter of fact, you are. 250 00:20:00,985 --> 00:20:03,579 - Nervous? - No way. 251 00:20:04,185 --> 00:20:06,984 I'm full of that good old kamikaze spirit. 252 00:20:07,825 --> 00:20:10,624 Just because this will never work, don't be negative. 253 00:20:10,705 --> 00:20:13,618 (Willow) The spell isn't powerful enough to defeat Adam? 254 00:20:13,785 --> 00:20:17,301 It's very powerful. It's also extraordinarily dangerous. 255 00:20:18,105 --> 00:20:20,301 Game faces, guys. We're going in. 256 00:20:27,905 --> 00:20:29,896 - How you doin'? - Super. 257 00:20:30,505 --> 00:20:32,974 What was I thinking, using stairs all this time? 258 00:20:33,065 --> 00:20:34,658 OK. 259 00:20:38,105 --> 00:20:41,496 - Will... - No, really. It's not as scary as I thought. 260 00:20:41,585 --> 00:20:43,622 No. That's not what I was gonna say. 261 00:20:46,345 --> 00:20:47,938 I just... 262 00:20:48,745 --> 00:20:50,736 I'm sorry. 263 00:20:50,825 --> 00:20:54,580 I hate that things have been so strained between all of us. 264 00:20:54,665 --> 00:20:57,578 It's not your fault. Spike stirred up trouble. 265 00:20:58,705 --> 00:21:01,538 Yeah, but I think trouble was stir-upable. 266 00:21:01,625 --> 00:21:05,175 I think we've all sort of drifted apart this year, don't you? 267 00:21:05,825 --> 00:21:07,418 Maybe a little. 268 00:21:07,505 --> 00:21:12,739 But, you know, first year of college, it's hard to keep the old high-school gang together. 269 00:21:12,945 --> 00:21:15,983 But I want it together. Will, I miss you. 270 00:21:17,825 --> 00:21:21,420 And Giles and Xander. And it is my fault. 271 00:21:21,505 --> 00:21:24,816 I've been so wrapped up in my own stuff, I've been a bad friend. 272 00:21:25,505 --> 00:21:28,065 You're the Slayer. Your stuff is pretty crucial. 273 00:21:28,145 --> 00:21:30,136 I mean Riley, and... 274 00:21:31,105 --> 00:21:33,096 Riley, mostly. 275 00:21:34,825 --> 00:21:37,294 Well, I haven't been Miss Available either. 276 00:21:40,305 --> 00:21:43,536 I kept secrets. I hid things from everyone. 277 00:21:43,625 --> 00:21:47,539 That's not your fault. Will, you were going through something huge. 278 00:21:48,185 --> 00:21:50,984 I wanted to tell you, but I was so scared. 279 00:21:52,585 --> 00:21:56,180 You can tell me anything. I love you. 280 00:21:57,105 --> 00:22:00,336 - You're my best friend. - Me, too. 281 00:22:00,825 --> 00:22:02,816 - I love you, too. - Oh! 282 00:22:03,345 --> 00:22:05,063 (Willow) Falling now. 283 00:22:08,905 --> 00:22:12,899 - Let's promise to never not talk again. - I promise, I promise. 284 00:22:14,905 --> 00:22:17,658 - Xander! - Oh, wonderful Xander! 285 00:22:17,745 --> 00:22:21,022 - You know we love you, right? - We totally do. 286 00:22:21,105 --> 00:22:25,144 - Oh, God. We're gonna die, aren't we? - No. We just missed you. 287 00:22:27,585 --> 00:22:31,544 Giles, hurry up! You definitely wanna get down here for this! 288 00:22:34,705 --> 00:22:39,984 OK.
