00:00Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
00:02Buffy's like nobody else in the world.
00:04But she doesn't love me.
00:12Buffy, I love you.
00:16Oh God, no.
00:17Your mother has a brain tumor.
00:30I love you.
00:35Dr. Morelli's Radiology.
00:39Dr. Morelli's Radiology.
00:42Dr. Morelli's Radiology.
00:49Dr. Meyer?
00:58It's just me. Sorry.
01:04Can I get you anything?
01:06Yeah. Thank you.
01:09Riley?
01:11I'm fine.
01:19What time is it?
01:22There's a clock behind you, Will.
01:23I know, but there's a watch right above your hands.
01:31It can't be, right?
01:36What?
01:38Oh.
01:47I can't stand this. What's taking so long?
01:51It doesn't mean anything.
01:54You think?
01:57I'd worry more if your mom was out of surgery quickly.
02:00It might mean that they couldn't do much.
02:03I can't stand this.
02:04I can't stand this.
02:05I can't stand this.
04:06You're still going to have to watch your mother carefully and have her back in here for
04:11some follow-up testing.
04:12But overall, I'd consider the procedure a complete success.
04:17Oh, my goodness, doctor, thank you.
04:29Thank you so much.
04:30Believe me, it's my plan.
04:32Oh, sorry.
04:36Sorry.
04:40When I was younger, I used to put my chops to my mouth like this, and then Buffy would chase
04:46me around the house yelling, I am the Slayer.
04:49I'm going to get you.
04:51That's disturbing.
04:52You're emotionally scarred and we'll end up badly.
04:55No, it was great.
04:56I mean, she didn't actually stake me in the heart, you know.
04:59Buffy's pretty cool like that.
05:02So, what do you want to do now, Donster?
05:04Keeping in mind that I won't chase you because I'm old and I'm stuffed full of Moogoo guy starch.
05:09Oh, we could play that game again.
05:11Life, that was fun.
05:13For you, you always win.
05:17Well, we can make a wager this time.
05:21You can give me real money.
05:23That would be different.
05:24And after we teach her how to gamble, maybe we can all get drunk.
05:28I don't think the bar would serve her, but we could bring something in.
05:32Strawberry schnapps tastes just like real ice cream.
05:34Okay.
05:35How's about a movie?
05:36They're showing them in theaters now.
05:40I hear it's like watching a video with a bunch of strangers and a sticky floor.
05:44That one looks sad.
05:46The chimp playing hockey?
05:48Is that based on the check-off?
05:51There's a chimp playing hockey?
05:53Um, no.
05:54The other one.
05:54I don't want to see a sad movie.
05:56We have to see the chimp playing hockey.
05:59That's hilarious.
06:00The ice is so slippery and monkeys are all irrational.
06:04We have to see this.
06:06You pick, Don.
06:07This is your night.
06:08We are celebrating your mom's good news.
06:11Oh.
06:13Go, monkey.
06:15Choose monkey.
06:17It's okay.
06:18You guys don't have to make a big deal for me.
06:20I'm only sleeping over here so Buffy and Riley can boink.
06:24No, no, no.
06:25That's not it at all.
06:27They just need time to, um, be tender.
06:31Relax.
06:34He's not very convincing, is he?
06:38Alone time always translates into get Don out of the house so we could have a lot of obnoxious sex.
06:45Oh.
06:46Does that mean we can't?
06:47Can we put this song on repeat?
07:02Whatever you want.
07:04Can we put the whole night on repeat?
07:08Absolutely.
07:08Good.
07:12Oh.
07:14I can't believe how relaxed I feel.
07:17It's like all the tensions just left my body.
07:21Already?
07:21Already?
07:23Because I had that scheduled for a little later on.
07:28Scheduled?
07:30Are you planning on seducing me, Mr. Finn?
07:33I want tonight to be special for you.
07:51It's more than special.
07:54It's perfect.
07:56I'm glad.
07:59You deserve it after everything you've been through.
08:03Well, it's nothing compared to what my mom had to deal with.
08:07But it was a lot.
08:09And you were incredible.
08:13Not really.
08:15Just covering for the weepy chicken within.
08:19Don't sell yourself short.
08:21You stayed strong throughout, Buffy.
08:24You never even cried.
08:26No, I cried.
08:29I cried so hard I didn't think I was going to be able to stop.
08:32It might have been a while.
08:35So deep in love.
08:39Oh.
08:44That's all in the past now.
08:47Mom's out of the woods.
08:50And I'm here with you.
08:54That's all that matters.
08:56That's it.
09:17That's it.
11:53I think maybe I'll...
11:54Stick with a scarf.
11:56Come on.
11:57Wigs are fun.
11:58We could get you a whole bunch of different ones.
12:01You know, you could be like 60s mom, action mom, French maid mom.
12:06I must be getting better because you're making fun of me.
12:11Well, you know, I've got a lot of time to make up for.
12:14You have more important things to make up.
12:17I know you've been missing a lot of school.
12:21I may have to take a few incompletes, but I may have to take a few incompletes, but I will make it through the semester.
12:24Well, what about slang and your friends?
12:28I want you to have your life back.
12:30Right now, I'd rather be here, styling your beautiful new plastic dream hair.
12:36Fair enough, but you don't have to keep me company all night.
12:39Go out, have fun, get Riley to take you to a movie or something.
12:45I gave Riley the day off.
12:48I don't think he thinks of you as a chore, Buffy.
12:51I know that.
12:55Look, I told him to make plans with his friends because I wanted to have you all to myself.
12:59Okay?
13:01Besides, I can see him any time.
13:05And I'm sure he'll come over later looking for a little Bible study.
13:12Well, good.
13:14I mean, just as long as the two of you are spending some quality time with the Lord.
13:21We are.
13:23Absolutely.
13:26What do we got?
13:27Belize.
13:28Last transmission.
13:29In print.
13:30Scan say that...
13:31Breeding.
13:32They're not going to stay in that village for long.
13:35Looks like we got ourselves a hot spot.
13:38Tell the men to get ready.
13:41What about Riley?
13:43Agent Finn.
13:45I'm telling you, sir, if we go in for a sweep and drop, he's definitely a guy we want on the team.
13:51Let's bring him on board.
13:54That, uh, might take a little convincing.
13:58Why?
13:59What's he got here in Sunnydale that's so special?
14:03Riley?
14:10It's me.
14:15Every time you show up like this, you risk all of your parts, you know that?
14:20I wouldn't be here if I didn't have a good reason.
14:24As usual, I'm here to help you, and I...
14:27Are you naked under there?
14:29Get out.
14:30No, I'm serious.
14:31I mean, not about the naked part.
14:33I mean...
14:34Get out or I will drop you out head first.
14:36I want to show you something.
14:44What?
14:45You need to see this.
14:49We need to move if we want to get there in time.
14:52Oh, please.
15:00Like I give a bloody damn.
15:02We need to move if we want to get there.
15:32Don't start slaying.
15:51This isn't what we're here for.
15:52What do you think you're doing?
16:20Just having a little look, mate.
16:22Keep it down.
16:24You can't go up there.
16:30I said to keep it down.
16:32I said to keep it down.
16:44You can't go up there.
16:57Murder.
17:27Buffy.
17:47Buffy.
17:48We only came here because we care about you, friend.
17:53You need help.
17:57Hey, hey, hey!
18:08I thought you should know.
18:27Is that the Slayer?
18:46What the hell do you think you're doing bringing the Slayer here?
18:49Oh, man, I didn't know.
18:51Nobody's gonna risk coming here now.
18:53Set back off.
18:54Oh!
18:55Oh!
18:56Oh!
18:57Oh!
18:59Oh!
19:00Oh!
19:01Oh!
19:02Oh!
19:03Oh!
19:04Oh!
19:05Oh!
19:06Oh!
19:07Oh!
19:08Oh!
19:09Oh!
19:10Oh!
19:11Oh!
19:12Oh!
19:13Oh!
19:14Oh!
19:15Oh!
19:16Oh!
19:17Oh!
19:18Oh!
19:19Oh!
19:20Oh!
19:21Oh!
19:52Get out.
20:01I need to talk to you.
20:04I'm not in a talking mood.
20:07Then listen.
20:10Riley, just give the men a chance.
20:13If you don't like what you hear, we'll be on our way.
20:18Talk fast.
20:19We have a code one in Belize.
20:21A demon tribe is taking apart missionaries in the rainforest down there.
20:28And you're telling me this because?
20:31We're going down to terminate their operation.
20:34I want you to join us.
20:35I'm a civilian.
20:44You're a soldier.
20:46I quit the government a long way back.
20:48We're not government.
20:49We're army.
20:50Just like you.
20:51It's not the initiative, Finn.
20:57We don't do experiments.
21:00None of us give a damn what makes monsters tick.
21:03We just stop them.
21:04What do you need me for?
21:09I think you can handle yourself.
21:13And I always need bodies.
21:15I'm not going to lie to you.
21:19It's the real deal.
21:21High risk, low pay, and seriously messy.
21:25We ship out for Central America tomorrow midnight.
21:31Now, maybe civilian life is working out for you.
21:37And maybe not.
21:41Midnight tomorrow.
21:44Decision's yours.
21:45And so it begins.
22:01They're longer a victim of crass holiday commercialization.
22:05And a purveyor of it.
22:10Oh.
22:12Who ordered more chickens' feeds?
22:14The ones we have aren't moving at all.
22:17That's generally what happens when you cut them off the chicken.
22:20I'm serious.
22:22Maybe we could do a holiday promotion.
22:26One free with every purchase.
22:28Oh, yeah.
22:30Dear holiday memories.
22:32Merry tykes by the fire enjoying their new Christmas chicken feet.
22:36Oh, holding them tight as they fall asleep.
22:40Painting their little toenails.
22:41That's very humorous.
22:46Make fun of the ex-demon.
22:48I can just hear you in private.
22:50I dislike that Anya.
22:53She's newly human and strangely literal.
22:56What?
22:56I don't say that.
22:58No one says that.
23:00No one talks that way.
23:02Well, there's nothing wrong with my idea anyway.
23:04I've been very good for this store.
23:07If it wasn't for me,
23:09Giles would be a terrified old man staring at a quarterly tax statement and wetting himself.
23:14I say, that's an exaggeration.
23:16Anya, you've helped out a lot, but I have too.
23:20Yes, I forgot about all the vigorous sitting around.
23:24Anya, you can back off a little.
23:25You get paid.
23:26Willow's doing this on her own time.
23:29I'm sorry, Willow.
23:31Thank you for making time in your busy life to come in here and get in the way of mine.
23:36Anya, play nice.
23:38You know, fine.
23:39Take her side instead of mine, even though I'm the one who sleeps with you and feeds you, bathes you.
23:45She bathes you?
23:49Only in an erotic penthouse-y way.
23:53Not in a sponge bath-y geriatric sort.
23:57Please, stop.
23:59I beg your pardon.
24:07I need to find out everything I can about a vamp nest downtown.
24:11I asked what sort of...
24:12There were people there.
24:15It, um, it looked like they were paying vampires to bite them.
24:21Now I know what to get for the person who has everything.
24:25Who would pay to get bitten?
24:27Oh, that's been going on for centuries.
24:29Humans hire vampires to feed off them.
24:32They, well, you know, they get off on the rush.
24:35And the danger.
24:36The hazards of the underworld can become addictive to, um, some people.
24:41Why don't the vampires just kill them?
24:42Because they get cash, hot and cold, running blood, and, well, they don't leave any corpses behind, so they don't get hunted.
24:50But still, it can be terribly dangerous for humans.
24:53I mean, people can end up dying accidentally or meeting a vampire who only pretends to play by the house rules.
25:00You knew about this, and you didn't tell me.
25:04I haven't seen it since my ripper days.
25:07I had no idea it was going on in Sunnydale.
25:10Well, it is.
25:12And I'm going to stop it.
25:14Alfie, even if I had known about this, I might not have told you right now.
25:22What?
25:24Why?
25:25Well, I'm not sure it's where your efforts are best spent.
25:28Perhaps we should focus on a less ambiguous evil.
25:32Glory, for instance?
25:33You said people are dying.
25:37They're willing victims.
25:39I mean, there are people out there who deserve your help who aren't.
25:42Vampires are vampires.
25:43And my job description is pretty clear.
25:47Are you coming with me or not?
25:49What's the rush, Buff?
25:50If we're going into a nest, maybe we should come up with a strategy.
25:54Wait for Riley.
25:57Back me up or not.
26:00I'm going.
26:01I'm going.
26:03I'm going.
26:07Leave him on the stool.
26:14Have a nice day.
26:15Don't get killed.
26:18I don't understand.
26:20This place was doing serious business last night.
26:25Well, I guess everybody jumped ship once the word got out that the Slayer found their crib.
26:30I just want to apologize for the use of the word crib.
26:33You think they'll set up shop again in town?
26:36What to say?
26:38I'm sure they'll lie late for a bit.
26:41They're around somewhere.
26:42There's got to be a way to find these creeps.
26:45Don't worry, Buff.
26:45You'll find them.
26:47Yeah, I'm sure you'll get them next time, champ.
26:49What took you?
27:16It takes a while to get to full strength after those bites.
27:20Hey, hey, let's be reasonable about this.
27:22You may have noticed, Spike.
27:25I left reasonable about three exits back.
27:28Look, I'm not the one who got you into this.
27:31Don't kill the messenger.
27:32Why the hell not?
27:46Ow!
27:47Bloody hell!
27:50Oh, God!
27:52Hey.
27:53Oh!
27:54Plastic wood grain.
27:59Looks real, doesn't it?
28:03Don't think I don't know what's going on with you, Spike.
28:08Stay away from her.
28:10We'll do this for real next time.
28:12Oh, man.
28:24You're really hungry, aren't you?
28:27What?
28:29Look at you.
28:30All afraid I'm hot for your honey.
28:35Because you are.
28:36Well, yeah.
28:41But that's not your problem.
28:44Even if I wasn't in the picture, you're never going to be able to hold on to her.
28:49Oh!
28:50Bloody hell!
28:51Maybe I didn't almost kill you enough.
28:55Come on!
28:57You're not the long-haul guy, and you know it.
29:00Shut up.
29:01You know it, or else you wouldn't be getting suck jobs from two-bit vampire trawls.
29:18A girl needs some monster in her man.
29:23And that's not in your nature.
29:25No matter how low you try to go.
29:47You actually think you got a shot with her?
29:51No, I don't.
29:52A fella's got to try, though.
29:57Got to do what he can.
30:01If you touched her,
30:03you know I gave for real.
30:08I had this chip out of my head.
30:10I'd have killed you long ago.
30:14Ain't love grounded.
30:15Sometimes I envy you so much, it chokes me.
30:37And sometimes I think I got the better deal.
30:39To be that close to her and not have her.
30:50To be all alone, even when you're holding her.
30:56Feeling her, feeling her beneath you.
31:00Surrounding you.
31:03The scent.
31:03No, you got the better deal.
31:20I'm the lucky guy.
31:25Yeah.
31:30I'm the guy.
31:31I'm the guy.
31:33How long has she been in there?
32:03For a while now.
32:05Seems pretty gung-ho about it, too.
32:07Didn't even stop to say hello.
32:10Yeah, when we went to deal with that vampire-ness,
32:12she got all Rambo and torched the place.
32:16Something seriously bad is going on with her.
32:18Oh, I don't know.
32:19Maybe you're overreacting.
32:21I mean, who hasn't done stuff like that from time to time?
32:25I mean, I made this one guy spontaneously combust,
32:27and he sent his whole village on fire.
32:29Can you stop being scary for a minute and listen to what I'm trying to tell you?
32:36Is she in there?
32:38She's training.
32:39Would you guys mind clearing out?
32:43I need a minute and alone with her.
32:48A little after-hours hinky-panky in the training room, huh?
32:52Well, Xander and I can tell you some stories.
32:55Not now.
32:56Let's go, Anya.
32:56There's a funny thing with the vaulting horse that you can...
32:59Anya!
32:59What?
33:02You started.
33:03In your world, maybe.
33:05But where the people are,
33:06this isn't time for tales of onions and your sexcapades.
33:09Oh.
33:11Oh, well.
33:13Maybe we can go home and, you know, have them.
33:19Actually, I've got some stuff to take care of.
33:21I need to talk.
33:32I'm not ready to talk to you yet.
33:40Too bad.
33:45I'm serious.
33:47Unless you want to fight.
33:49So let's fight.
33:49We need to have this out, Buffy.
33:53Right now.
33:55And say what, Riley?
33:57What were you thinking?
33:59How long have you been lying to me?
34:03Nothing you say right now is going to make this better.
34:07I realize that.
34:08I don't expect...
34:11I just need you to hear me out.
34:16Fine.
34:18Get your hand off of me.
34:19I think this thing started.
34:42It was just some stupid, immature game.
34:47I wanted to even the score after you let Dracula bite you.
34:50I did not let Dracula...
34:52I know.
34:53On some level, I know that.
34:57But I was still spun.
34:58I don't know.
34:59I wanted to know what you felt.
35:01I wanted to know why Dracula and Angel have so much power over you.
35:11You so don't get it.
35:14I wanted to get it, Buffy.
35:15I wanted to get you.
35:18So this is my fault?
35:21Hey, gee, Buffy's so mysterious.
35:23I think I'll go out and almost die.
35:25I think I'll go and let some other...
35:28This isn't your fault.
35:31It's mine.
35:32And I feel like hell for what I've put you through.
35:35But it's just...
35:38These girls...
35:42Vampires.
35:44Killers.
35:46They made me feel something, Buffy.
35:49Something I didn't even know I was missing until...
35:52I can't.
35:53I can't hear this.
35:55You need to hear this.
35:58Fine.
35:59Fine.
36:01Tell me about your whores.
36:04Tell me what on earth they were giving you that I can't.
36:10They needed me.
36:13They needed your money.
36:15It wasn't about you.
36:16No.
36:17On some basic level, it was about me.
36:20My blood.
36:21My body.
36:22When they bit me,
36:30it was beyond passion.
36:35They wanted to devour me.
36:38All of me.
36:40Why are you telling me this?
36:42It wasn't real.
36:45I know.
36:46It was just physical.
36:49But the fact that I craved it...
36:51that I kept going back.
36:57Even if it was fleeting,
36:58they made me feel like they had such...
37:00hunger for me.
37:03And I don't make you feel that way.
37:15How on earth can you compare me to that?
37:19How can you tell me you understand what those vampires are feeling?
37:23You weren't a passion to them.
37:25You were a snack.
37:26A willing, idiotic snack.
37:27A willing, idiotic snack.
37:28No, I know exactly what they feel when they bite me.
37:31Because I feel it every time we're together.
37:34It's like the whole world falls away.
37:37And all there is, is you.
37:38And you think that I don't feel the same way about you?
37:43How dare you tell me what I feel?
37:46You keep me at a distance, Buffy.
37:48You didn't even call me when your mom went into the hospital.
37:52I'm sorry.
37:54You know, I'm...
37:56sorry that I couldn't take care of you
37:58when I thought that my mother was dying.
37:59It's about me taking care of you.
38:04It's about letting me in.
38:07So you don't have to be on top of everything all the time.
38:09But I do.
38:11That's part of what being a Slayer is.
38:15And that's what this is really about, isn't it?
38:19You can't handle the fact that I'm stronger than you.
38:25It's hard sometimes, yeah.
38:27But that's not it.
38:29Then what?
38:31What else do you want from me, Riley?
38:34I've given you everything that I have.
38:36I've given you my heart, my body, and soul.
38:40You say that, but I don't feel it.
38:43I just don't feel it.
38:47Well, whose fault is that?
38:50Because I'm telling you, this is it.
38:54This is me.
38:56This is the package.
38:59And if it's so deficient that you need to get your kicks elsewhere,
39:04then we really have a problem.
39:07They want me back, Buffy.
39:24The military.
39:26It's deep undercover.
39:31No contact with civilians.
39:38Transport's leaving tonight.
39:44Tonight?
39:44When were you going to tell me about this?
39:53I'm telling you now.
39:59Are you going?
40:00I don't know.
40:04We can't work this out.
40:07Then what?
40:07This is goodbye?
40:11Goodbye?
40:17You are unbelievable.
40:21You're giving me an ultimatum?
40:24No, I'm not.
40:25Yes, you are.
40:26You expect me to get over it now, or you're gone?
40:29I don't, Buffy.
40:29That's not what I am.
40:30No, I've heard enough.
40:32I will not take the blame for this.
40:34I am not asking you to.
40:36Let go of me.
40:37For what?
40:38You'll hit me?
40:42Go ahead.
40:45Come on, do it.
40:49Get out of my way.
40:51I'm serious, Buffy.

41:11Unless you give me a reason to stay,
41:14I'm leaving tonight.
