00:00From any living creature, in any way, without intense neurological pain.
00:04I can hurt a demon.
00:06That's right! I'm back, and I'm a bloody animal!
00:14Well, I thought we'd made a pretty good team.
00:18You're really strong. I like it.
00:21I implore you, Nisa, blessed goddess of chance and fortune,
00:31heed my call.
00:34Send to me the heart I desire.
00:37You know, magic at the poker table qualifies as cheating.
00:42That wasn't magic. I was praying.
00:45Two, please.
00:51Five.
00:53On, I keep telling you, four's the max, and only if you have an ace.
00:58Okay, four.
01:00Let's see the ace.
01:03Three.
01:05What a stupid game. All these rules just to win little plastic discs.
01:10Chips. They're called chips. They represent money.
01:14Since none of us has any money to represent money,
01:17but that's going to change once my merchandise hits the street.
01:21Mmm. What you got in the box is drugs.
01:26It's not drugs, is it, Xander?
01:28Not drugs.
01:31You are looking at the new local distributor for Boost Bars.
01:39The natural food bar that provides a nutritional energy boost
01:44for active health conscious people.
01:46Want one?
01:48No, thanks.
01:49Those things usually taste kind of tasteless,
01:53and then leave a bad after tastelessness.
01:57Well, don't let the healthy scare you.
02:00Check out these ingredients.
02:01See? Loaded with fatty goodness.
02:04Come on, somebody bet already.
02:05I've got 3K cards.
02:12Wish the buff could have made it.
02:13I bet this three-hand poker is not quite the game.
02:17Guess she's out with Riley.
02:19You know how it is with a spanking new boyfriend.
02:22Yes, we've enjoyed spanking.
02:23Well, the thing is,
02:31I think Riley's okay in an oafish kind of way,
02:37but am I the only one with a big floating question mark
02:42over his head about this initiative thing?
02:44Well, they do seem to fall in the good guy camp.
02:47I mean, they are anti-demon.
02:52But probably pro-ex-demon.
02:55Maybe.
02:57I choose to feel threatened.
02:59And why not?
03:00There's still heaps we don't know about these commandos.
03:04What exactly are they up to?
03:05There's still heaps we don't know about them.
03:35I...
03:36Took the patrol team 42 minutes to track you.
03:45And you neutralized them in 28 seconds.
03:50That is just lucky.
03:54I see.
03:55Well, still very impressive.
04:05I was just being modest with the whole lucky thing.
04:09You got that, right?
04:10I got it.
04:13Awesome, Buffy.
04:19See?
04:20You're a hit.
04:21Everybody loves you.
04:22See?
04:24You're a hit.
04:24We're also a hit.
04:25You're a hit.
04:27Have a hit.
04:30You're a hit.
05:35So then Professor Walsh said that I was just as amazing as Riley had said,
05:47and later he told me that she couldn't stop talking about this move I made
05:51where I used one of the commandos as a shield to block a taser blast.
05:55It was like 12,000 bolts.
05:57It took the guy almost two hours to recover.
06:02How was your night?
06:06Like a normal person's light on the action pack.
06:10Hope tonight's not too much of a letdown for you, excitement-wise.
06:14You do remember about tonight, right?
06:21Bronze, the gang.
06:23Are you kidding?
06:24I wouldn't be anywhere else.
06:26I miss you guys.
06:28We haven't been able to spend that much time together lately.
06:32You've been busy.
06:34Fighting armies and stuff.
06:35Not to mention other distractions for more romantic.
06:41Riley just walked in.
06:49Do you want to let him know you're here?
06:52No.
06:53Just enjoying good stare.
06:55Tell me about your night.
06:59Well, I spent most of it at Xander's, teaching Anya to play poker.
07:03That sounds like fun.
07:06Yeah.
07:07Except the Anya part and the poker part.
07:10Well, I think you better get used to a Twinkie.
07:14That's his lunch?
07:16Oh, he is so gonna be punished.
07:20Everyone's getting spanked but me.
07:23What?
07:23Nothing.
07:42Wipe your feet when you enter a person's home.
07:47There is careless of me.
07:51Tracking mud all over your room.
07:54Mud.
07:56I admit.
07:58It's a bit of a fixer-upper.
08:02Needs a woman's touch.
08:06Care to have a crack at it?
08:09Well, I'd love to go on trading jabs with you, Spike.
08:13Perhaps I'll come to the point.
08:14As much as it pains me to say it, I owe you a debt of gratitude for the help you provided me in my recent metamorphosis.
08:25Stuff the gratitude.
08:27You owe me more than that, mate.
08:28You owe me more than that, mate.
08:30So, um, three hundred.
08:33Count it if you might.
08:36I'll do that.
08:36Um, thinking about your, um, affliction and, uh, newfound discovery that you can fight only demons.
08:58It's accursed to me that I'm, uh, I realize this is completely against your nature, but, uh, uh, uh, does it occur to you there may be a higher purpose?
09:10Yeah.
09:10You made me lose count.
09:14What are you still doing here?
09:16Talking to myself, apparently.
09:18Well, piss off, then.
09:20This bit of business wraps up any I got with you and your slayerettes.
09:24From here on, I want nothing to do with a lot of you.
09:27Your choosing to remain in Sunnydale might make that a little difficult.
09:32Well, you and yours will just have to show a little restraint, is all.
09:36Now, get out.
09:40And I don't want you crawling back here, knocking on my door, pleading for help, the second teen witch's magic goes all wonky, or little Xander cuts a new tooth.
09:54We're through.
09:55Got it?
10:02Honeymoon is over.
10:10You don't have to do this.
10:16I know.
10:19I mean, if you'd rather wait.
10:23I'm ready.
10:26I want to.
10:27I want to.
10:27New retinal scan recorded.
10:45Summer's buffy.
10:47You don't have to.
11:07I want to.
11:08I want to.
11:10Now.
11:10My God.
11:29You said it was big.
11:33You told me, but you never said it was huge.
11:38Don't like to brag.
11:40I had no idea.
11:45This is incredible.
11:48But not that I thought it was some fly-by-night operation.
11:52Unless it is.
11:54I mean, can you guys fly at night with those jetpack things?
11:57Do you have this?
11:58I can't really talk about it.
12:01This is unreal.
12:07So, you like our little operation?
12:09Yeah, yes.
12:13It's very clean.
12:16Your visitors pass.
12:19And I've assembled some reading material to bring you up to speed.
12:23Oh.
12:25I thought I was never going to get homework from you again.
12:27You can't take that home.
12:29That's classified material.
12:31Highly sensitive.
12:33When you're through reading those pages, you'll have to eat them.
12:38She's joking.
12:39Don't worry.
12:42It doesn't happen very often.
12:43Shall we?
12:50Much of our hands-on research with the HSTs is performed here.
12:54We call this the pit.
12:59And what do you call those?
13:02Tough.
13:03Took eight of us to bring those two down.
13:05I'll be under our control soon enough.
13:07Dr. Engelman, head of our science team.
13:13He's a leader in the field of xenomorphic behavior modification.
13:17Behavior modification?
13:18We've made significant advances in reconditioning the subterrestrials,
13:23bringing them to a point where they no longer pose a threat.
13:26So I've seen.
13:30On the Discovery Channel.
13:33With gorillas and sharks, they made them all nice.
13:37You haven't seen it.
13:42What's over there?
13:43The armory.
13:56You have to be cleared for use on each of these weapons.
14:00The more advanced arsenal can be complicated,
14:03but I'm certain in time you'll pick that up.
14:06Don't pick that up.
14:08What is it?
14:10About $20,000.
14:11It's a prototype for a comm cam.
14:17Communications camera.
14:19Soon-to-be standard issue.
14:20Gives us a direct comm link to control when we're out in the field.
14:23Also monitors the heart rate of the wearer.
14:26A valuable tool for research in stress and combat conditioning.
14:30If you'll follow me, I'll show you the HST containment area.
14:33Now hop away to the goal.
14:35We have a few more things to give you.
14:45What's in there?
14:47Research area.
14:49Very restricted for security reasons.
14:53Here is your security card.
14:55And your pager.
14:56I've been thinking about getting one of these.
15:00We're the only ones with a number, and it stays that way.
15:04Right.
15:05Lose either one of them, there's hell to pay, and down here we mean that literally.
15:11Again, welcome to the team.
15:13This is so cool.
15:22Wow.
15:24I've been trying to find the doll's eye crystal my entire life.
15:29Well, since June, anyway.
15:32Where'd you get it?
15:33It was my grandma's, I think.
15:37I found it a long time ago in my attic.
15:42I want you to have it.
15:45Oh, no, Tara.
15:48That's really sweet.
15:51I can't.
15:52It's like a family heirloom.
15:55I just wouldn't feel comfortable.
15:57But if you wanted to try out some spells with it sometime, I wouldn't say no.
16:07Maybe tonight.
16:09I mean, if you're not doing something, you could come over and we could do something.
16:18Tonight, that sounds really nice, but tonight I already have plans with people.
16:25Other.
16:25Other.
16:27Oh.
16:29Other.
16:31Um, that's okay.
16:34Another time.
16:36Absolutely.
16:38It's just tonight, it's kind of a specific crowd.
16:44You might feel out of place.
16:48I'd better get to class.
16:52Well, um, I'll see you later, okay?
16:55I'll see you later.

20:19oh you know i didn't think that you would mind uh riley and the guys worked for a little
20:25impromptu celebration in my honor and it made it like impossible not to invite them
20:31oh that's neat about the celebrating i i just thought this was supposed to be you know us
20:41just the scooby core you know i mean i could have invited somebody else if i knew it was an open
20:47free-for-all i'm sorry i had no idea my total bad so who did you want to invite
20:58what you said you wanted to invite someone no not no one i mean i meant a hypothetical
21:07summer which is to say no one what did we celebrate i'm in the initiative professor losch
21:15gave me the grand tour and we're talking grand as in canyon you never believe the size of it that's
21:21really again i say neat so what do you mean exactly you've joined them no not exactly it it just means
21:35that when i patrol i'll have a heavily armed team backing me up plus boyfriend going to work with me
21:42big extra perk
21:47do you really think this is a good idea i mean don't you think you're rushing things a little
21:57i thought you liked riley not with riley with the initiative and there's a bunch of stuff about them
22:05we still don't know i know that like what well what's their ultimate agenda i mean okay yeah they
22:16they neuter vampires and demons but then what are they going to reintegrate them into society get them
22:23jobs as bad boys at walmart does walmart have bad boys plus don't forget that 314 thing that ethan told
22:34giles about well the man that worships chaos and tries to kill you is a man you can trust
22:39well bad info or not i just think there's certain questions you should ask before you go off and enlist
22:54that's us let's go when did you get a pager that's good that's our cue the mother wants us
23:01well i know talk later
23:08so it's the big emergency
23:11this is your objective sub t67119 demon class bulgara species no visual confirmation has not yet been
23:21made we're confident of the target's approximate position as it leaves behind a distinct protein
23:27marker dr engelman will brief you on its defenses when threatened bone skewers jut from the creature's
23:37forearms during battle it's imperative when ensnaring it not to damage its arms that's all you really need
23:46to know question
23:52buffy
23:54why exactly can't we damage this polka thing's arms
23:58i mean not that i want to it's just in my experience when fighting for your life body parts
24:04get damaged and better its bits than mine or ours we wish to study the physiology of every subterrestrial's
24:14natural defense it's part of the research we do here yes what do they want want why are they here
24:27sacrifices treasure or they just get rampagey i find it's easy to predict their responses if i know
24:35they're not sentient just destructive i believe they do have keen eyesight however you might want to
24:42be suited up for this oh you mean the camo and stuff i thought about it but i mean it's gonna look all
24:51private benjamin don't worry i've patrolled in this halter many times
24:58why don't we give our attention to dr engelman and save all questions until the end actually i'm
25:03finished oh uh well uh agent finn deploy the teams okay listen up we'll be going in a four squad setup
25:15team leaders gates taggart and stavros alpha team you're with me report to tl's for assignments and
25:21weapon requisitions reminder this is a zap and trap people capture not a kill any questions
25:29buffy
25:35willow funny thing happened with my prior social engagement pretty much ended when a friend of mine
25:45went off to do something with another crowd she hangs out with
25:50uh irony is kind of ironic that way anyway i know what's late but i i thought maybe i mean if you
26:03still wanted to do something
26:19so i guess she hates me now what professor walsh questions an initiative faux pas yes
26:28it's a little unusual she's just not used to it maybe because you barely ever opened your mouth
26:36in her classroom but i know she likes you in fact she liked you before i did
26:43really told me so herself
26:45maybe i should get her a present or something buffy can we talk about this later there's a dangerous
26:53hostel out here and since i don't have your reflexes i kind of need to focus right right
27:02what do you mean she liked me before you did uh you didn't like me
27:15it just isn't right
27:20you made your team leader didn't you that's not the point i've always been riley's second
27:24in the command instead he picks a girl his girl whatever three guesses on what that boy's thinking
27:31with maybe he just wanted to give you a chance to get out from under a shadow hey i'm not under

34:09Spent the rest on blood and smokes, which I'll never see again.
34:15Oh, come on.
34:17Circle the wagons. Tend to the wounded here.
34:20No time for layabouts.
34:31Hey.
34:33What's the matter?
34:36You weren't expecting to see me?
34:39I never know what to expect.
34:58Your robot bird sounds hungry.
35:01It's just a reminder to take my vitamins.
35:05You're kidding.
35:06I'm sorry.
35:21Quite the regimental soldier.
35:24I am how they train me.
35:27They?
35:29Who they?
35:31You know, the government plucked me out of special op training for this.
35:37What did they tell you it was for?
35:40Didn't.
35:41In the military, you learn to follow orders, not ask questions.
35:45I don't understand.
35:48Aren't you curious about all the science and research stuff they're doing?
35:55I know all I need to know.
35:57We're doing good here.
35:59Protecting the public.
36:01Removing the subterrestrial threat.
36:05It's work worth doing.
36:06What's 314?
36:14314.
36:21Riley.
36:24We have a situation.
36:26You're needed.
36:27On my way.
36:29What is it?
36:30Don't know.
36:31You're really not one for asking questions, are you?
36:41I'll leave that to you.
36:42I'll leave that to you.
36:48Ancient weather.
36:50Genetic phase.
36:52Ancient weather.
36:53Genetic phase.
36:55I'm sorry.
36:56I'm sorry.
36:57I'm sorry.
36:57I'm sorry.
36:58I'm sorry.
36:58I'm sorry.
37:00No, ma'am.
37:11I've instructed Beta Team to suspend pursuit of Hostile 17 until your arrival.
37:17I didn't want any slip-ups.
37:19That's why I'm putting you in charge.
37:21I'll rendezvous with them at these coordinates.
37:27Riley.
37:27Riley.
37:30Make me proud.
37:34Yes, ma'am.
37:39I think we've got a situation.
37:50The Slayer?
37:52She's becoming a liability.
37:54You knew that was a danger?
37:55Does she know about the project?
37:58She knows it exists.
38:00She already holds too much influence over Riley.
38:03Over Agent Finn.
38:06We move to the contingency scenario?
38:09Right away.
38:11It's too bad.
38:13She could have been a powerful ally.
38:16I know.
38:17And Finn will take it hard.
38:19That's why sooner is better.
38:32It's better.
38:36Ow!
38:38Watch it.
38:39That hurts.
38:40It doesn't appear to be a bully.
38:44It's too deeply embedded for a tranquilizer, Doc.
38:48Also not tranquil.
38:51Some sort of illumination emanating from it.
38:56It's blinking.
38:57I don't care if it's playing Rocking the Casbah on the bloody juice hop.
39:02Just get it out of me.
39:04All right, Anya.
39:05There's a bottle of cognac in the cupboard next to the sink.
39:08When do you get it for me?
39:09What?
39:09You're going to get snarkered now?
39:11It's not for me, you brat.
39:13If I'm going to operate on you, I need you anesthetized.
39:16This will take some time.
39:17We don't have any.
39:19That blinking thing, my pseudo-soldier memory bank tells me that's a tracer.
39:25What?
39:25A what?
39:26It's like a homing beacon.
39:28And if commando guys are reading the signal, they're coming home.
39:34Well, we need to buy some time.
39:36It's in deep and I'm no certain.
39:48Oh, hi.
39:59Hey.
40:02Out all night, huh?
40:05You too.
40:07Yeah.
40:15Sorry about bailing on you guys at the bronze.
40:18That's okay.
40:20I...
40:20Don't worry about it.
40:24Okay.
40:28Well, they really keep you hopping, don't they?
40:31Yeah.
40:33I gotta go.
40:34I'll see ya.
40:47Hello?
40:48Willow, you're there at last.
40:51We have a problem.
40:53Where's Buffy?
40:54Just left.
40:55Beeped away by our new buds.
40:58You want me to go after her?
41:00No, no, no.
41:01It's your help I need, actually.
41:03Really?
41:04What do you want me to do?
41:06It's a small job.
41:07Reconnaissance.
41:09Probably a waste of a slayer's abilities.
41:12But my boys are on assignment, so I...
41:14No, it's okay.
41:16I'm up for some action.
41:17I doubt you'll get any on this one.
41:19We have a reading of a class three subterrestrial moving through the sewer tunnels just on the north edge of town.
41:28Class three?
41:29It's a low-level threat, minimal aggression, meager defenses.
41:33Mr. Wall?
41:33They barely show up on the scanner and occasionally turn out to be raccoons.
41:38Wow.
41:41You're not crazy about raccoons, huh?
41:44We always take precautions.
41:47All we need you to do is get a visual on this thing.
41:51This will feed me back an image, and I can advise you from there.
41:55I don't want to put you in any unnecessary danger.
41:58Oh, that's okay.
42:00Danger's my birthright.
42:02Sorry.
42:02Um, Professor Walsh, there's, um, there's still some stuff about all this that I'm not clear on.
42:14Well, when you get back, we can have a talk.
42:18Good.
42:19Okay.
42:21When I get back.
42:25Am I supposed to salute you?
42:27No.
42:29Okay.
42:32Oh, wow.
42:46Tropo, strato, meso, aero, iono, exo.
42:53Li, alimente, soro, applicate, alvente.
42:58If she succeeds, her spell will ionize the atmosphere around us, thereby disrupting the
43:03tracer signal.
43:04And mezzo del globo.
43:05By this title.
43:06Elements are brought to bear.
43:09Wind, earth, and water churned amidst the fire.
43:14Let the air be burned.
43:20Did it work?
43:21The atmosphere ionized?
43:22I think she is.
43:29What do you mean, the signal's whacked?
43:32I mean, a blip's a blob.
43:33Some kind of interference messing with the tracer.
43:36Try to lock it down.
43:38We heading in the right general direction?
43:40I think so.
43:41It's gonna put us in populated areas.
43:43Okay, then.
43:45We change into civvies, then move out.
43:48Maybe something will turn up.
43:49Okay.
43:49No.
43:51No.
43:51Let's go.
44:22Professor Walsh, are you getting this?
44:25Possible HST?
44:27Making it definite.
44:30He's brought along a friend.
44:33Casey?
44:51He's brought along a friend.
45:21Come on.
45:51Level 4-7. Now compilation.
46:07Talk to me, Forrest.
46:09Signal's somewhere in this neighborhood.
46:12Estimate within a two-block radius.
46:15Feels and looks like the ionizing spell's wearing off.
46:19Charles?
46:20Oh, I've got it. I've got it.
46:27Okay, we want to keep this hostel contained.
46:30So no one's to make a move without my...
46:32Wait. Signal's cleared up.
46:35There.
46:36Let's go.
46:39Go.
46:39Go.
46:45What?
46:46It's on the move.
46:47Heading?
46:48Straight at us. 40 meters on closing. Moving fast.
46:51Broad daylight?
46:52Look alive, people. Weapons at the ready.
46:5425 meters.
46:5620.
46:5715.
46:58Where?
46:58To the left.
47:0010 meters.
47:005.
47:01Anyone?
47:01I got nothing.
47:03This doesn't make sense.
47:05We went right past us.
47:11Flushed.
47:12The tracer's been flushed.
47:14The tracer's been flushed.
47:39visions.
47:40Let's go.
48:11Regret your report. Hostel 17's still at large. I've left Beta Team to comb the area.
48:16Riley, something's happened. I don't know what to say. It's about Buffy.
48:24Buffy?
48:25Two of our hostels broke free and escaped into the tunnels. She went after them on her own.
48:35She's dead, Riley.
48:38What?
48:39I did everything I could to stop her. I told her to wait for a backup team. She kept insisting she didn't need any team. She could handle it by herself. I'm so, so sorry.
48:51I don't understand.
48:51I know what she meant to you. How could this happen?
48:55She was a very, very special girl. I didn't understand at first. But she had something. I don't know. Maybe I could have stopped her. It's hard not to blame myself.
49:11Professor Walsh, that simple little recon you sent me on. It wasn't a raccoon. Turns out it was me trapped in the sewers with a faulty weapon and two of your pet demons.
49:25If you think that's enough to kill me, you really don't know what a slayer is. Trust me when I say you're going to find out.
49:38I don't know what a slayer is, but I don't know what a slayer is.
50:08Stop! Agent Finn! Riley!
50:16It would be a dark scene. I think it would be wise for you to leave Sunnyvale. I'm not going anywhere. Not until those bastards undo whatever they did to me. Put me back the way I was.
50:29Sure. Just to explain to the nice scientist guys that you really miss killing and torturing innocent people.
50:37You think that would work?
50:39Spike, Lord knows why I'm telling you this. It's for your own good. As long as the initiative is in operation, it's not safe for you here.
50:48No. It's not safe for any of us.
50:58So. All right. Fine. If she wants a fight, we'll give her one. Won't we, Adam?
51:08I've worked too long. Too long. To let some little bitch threaten this project. Threaten me.
51:18She has no idea who she's dealing with.
51:28Once she's gone, Riley will come around. He'll understand.
51:36It's for the greater good. You'll see that. And if he doesn't...
51:46Well, first things first. Remove the complication. And when she least expects it...
51:48Ah!
51:49It's for the greater good. And when she's gone, Riley will come around. He'll understand.
51:53It's for the greater good. You'll see that. And if he doesn't...
52:06Well, first things first. Remove the complication. And when she least expects it...
52:15Ah!
52:17Adam?
52:32Mommy?
52:33Mommy?
