00:00the books. We want to take Angel's soul away.
00:10The mayor's built this town for demons to feed on and come graduation day
00:14he's getting paid. You think we missed anything? I think we know everything she
00:18knows. You played me! I know you only did what I
00:22asked. I never wanted to go that far.
00:30You demons can't resist a run-and-stumble, can you?
01:00One down, one gone.
02:30Is this scabby demon got away? Scabby demon number two got away. Scabby
02:37demon number one, big check in the slate column.
02:40I don't like this whole no mouth thing it's describing.
02:44Well, no mouth means no teeth unless they have them somewhere else.
02:50Morning girls. We've been researching the mayor's forthcoming ascension. It's
02:56pretty riveting stuff. What do we know? What don't we know?
03:02Tell it, Joss. Based on the supposed date,
03:06graduation day, and the mayor being impervious to harm,
03:09I've cross-referenced. He's a cross-referencing fool.
03:14And I've eliminated several possibilities. It's not
03:18the ritual flaying of the demon Azeroth, nor the...
03:27I don't know what's gonna happen. That's kind of an anti-climax.
03:32We don't know anything. The whole Faith Angel thing was for nothing.
03:36No, no, no. If nothing else, Angel Sherad has
03:40brought Faith's treachery into the open, and this information about the ascension
03:44will prove useful eventually. I just need to put it
03:49together. Terribly sorry. I was detained.
03:53Official council business. Mr. Giles, you were speaking?
03:58I was just filling Buffy in on my progress regarding the research of
04:02ascension. Oh, and what took up the rest of the minute?
04:09Touche. Of course, my work is unofficial.
04:14I'm sure, however, with the resources of the council at your disposal,
04:20you will have something to add.
04:26Well, I am pleased to state with certainty that the demon Azeroth
04:33will not in any way be...
04:38I'm sure we'll find out more soon.
04:48The demon Azeroth?
04:51So, have you talked to the Angel lately? Not really.
04:57Seeing him bad, even pretend bad, and with Faith. He only kissed her for the
05:03greater good.
05:06I don't know. To the naked eye, it looked like fun.
05:11Or maybe it wasn't. Maybe he wasn't even tempted.
05:15I just wish I could be sure. As always, I invited you to ask.
05:20Like he'd tell me? Hogan!
05:26Great game, man. Thanks. Hogan Martin thinks he's
05:30so hot, like we should all be awed by him because he put a ball in a net.
05:35Hey, Xander. He said my name. He knows my name.
05:40Hey, Will. Hey. Hi. Um, look, I can't make it to the study
05:46session after school today. Um, can we do a fifth period? Okay. Did you
05:51finish the reading? Most of it. Percy? I'll finish it at lunch.
05:57That's my little trooper. I don't know what you're doing to him.
06:00I actually heard him complete a sentence. Had claws and everything.
06:06You can watch the game, right? Wouldn't miss it. See you, Hogan.
06:10Ladies. You're going to the game? I didn't know you liked basketball. I
06:16didn't either, but I've really started getting into it,
06:19especially now that we're in the championships. It's so exciting.
06:23Too bad you're patrolling because we're all going, Oz, Xander,
06:26everybody. Right. Everybody who isn't currently
06:31lucky.
06:36You touched one of the demons. A good touch,
06:40not a bad touch. Anyway, it's been itching like crazy.
06:46No big. Just another problem for the good people at Liverderm, right?
06:51Is the demon in question? In the disgusting flesh.
06:59What? It says it can infect the host. Infect? Infect?
07:08Giles. Infect? Oh, infect the host with an aspect of the
07:15demon. That's what it says. An aspect of the
07:18demon? It is rather terse, isn't it? You mean like a part of it?
07:24There could be any number of explanations for your hand.
07:27A new fabric softener can cause irritation.
07:31In any case, I would advise not to attempt
07:34to track the one that got away. That's minimize your exposure.
07:39Part of the demon. I hope it's not the outside part.
08:03Is it me or is this really lame? I don't know. I usually enjoy lameness and
08:08it's leaving me kind of cold. Well, according to Freddy's
08:11latest editorial, the pep rally is a place for pseudo-prostitutes to provoke
08:17men into a sexual frenzy, which when thwarted results in
08:21pointless athletic competition. And the downside being? The school paper
08:27is edging out a depressing way. Do you guys notice that? I don't know. I
08:32always go straight to the obits.
08:36What are you doing, Buffy? Nothing.
08:41Checking for horns.
08:45Oh, you know, Buffy, I don't even think Giles is right about you becoming like a
08:50demon. I mean, he's totally burnt, you know?
08:54Dealing with faith and this ascension thing
08:57between you and me. He's not doing his best work.
09:01What if he is right? I'm suddenly gonna grow this demon part and we don't even
09:05know what it is. It could be claws or scales.
09:11What? Is it a boy demon?
09:23They are very good. Their spelling's improved.
09:27You know, Osh, I look at all this beauty, all these
09:31healthy young women, and I wonder why I ever wasted my time on Cordelia.
09:37I mean, look at her. She's no better looking than the rest of them.
09:40None of them are really mine. Oh my god, he's looking at her.
09:45He's got his filthy, adult, pierced, rosny eyes all over my Cordy.
09:52You're a very complex man, aren't you?
09:57It's just, I'm scared, Will. There's this
10:00thing in me and I can't find it. I can't stop it.
10:06What if it changes me? I mean, not just the way I look.
10:10All of a sudden, I could be something that's not me anymore.
10:13Yeah, woo-hoo!
10:17Sorry, they spelled Percy and I have to show support. He's needy.
10:22But I heard what you were saying, really.
10:25And I would be frightened, too, but I'm sure you're gonna be okay.
10:50Still got a mouth.
10:54Sorry.
10:56It's okay. I didn't see you, so I should have known you were there.
11:04What are you doing here? It's a dangerous time, you know.
11:09With Faith.
11:12Yeah, Faith.
11:16She, well... Faith, what can you say about her?
11:21I just want to make sure that you're, you know, okay.
11:24That you're safe.
11:27And the fact that you're right here, does that mean Faith's around?
11:34Are you keeping me safe by tracking me or are you tracking her?
11:37I'm tracking you. Something's bothering you.
11:44A lot of things.
11:48The most recent being this demon. Actually, two.
11:54I touched one of them and now I'm gonna get a big case of the bumpies or a tail or something.
11:59Aspect of the demon.
12:02You know the drill.
12:03By rumor. But that doesn't mean anything.
12:06I mean, sometimes demons, they just exaggerate their power.
12:09Demon hype. Maybe not.
12:15I spend all my time in the dark here anyway.
12:18You know, it's not like I'd be at a game, you know, with my friends,
12:22where someone could see me in my new monster part.
12:26Hey.
12:28I won't let anything happen to you if I can help it.
12:34No matter what, I'll always be with you.
12:39Hey. I'll love you, even if you're covered with slime.
12:48I liked everything until that part.
12:58Could you believe it? Right at the buzzer. Three points for the win.
13:02It was intense.
13:03Yeah, for a minute there, I thought you were gonna make an expression.
13:06Well, if that one's coming on, I won't lie.
13:09Man, I've never seen anyone jump like Hogan Martin.
13:11They should call him The Jumper.
13:14Or a name that isn't an article of women's clothing.
13:17Hey, remember when the...
13:18Shh.
13:24Hmm. Quietness.
13:26We either lost or we won and you don't want me to feel bad.
13:31Oh, yeah, it wasn't really a good game.
13:34Yeah, tall hoops, but then tall guys. What's the point, huh?
13:38Pretty dull.
13:39Are you guys crazy? It was an incredible game.
13:42I've never cheered so hard in my life.
13:45I still have knee marks on my back.
13:49From the pyramid?
13:54Yeah, well, I still bet patrolling was way better,
13:58because, wow, important.
14:01Well, I thought I saw a four-legged demon,
14:05but it was just a dog.
14:07A were-dog.
14:09Regular.
14:10Tough luck.
14:11Yeah.
14:12Right.
14:13So fired up.
14:16I wonder if she and Wesley have kissed.
14:18Really bugs you, huh?
14:21What?
14:22Cordelia and Wesley smooching.
14:25Man, you read my mind.
14:31Oh, there.
14:49You watch where you're going now.
14:51I'm sorry, Mr. Breach, I will.
14:53Students.
14:55If we could just get rid of all the students.
14:58When I'm a software jillionaire,
15:00but then broke, who's the loser?
15:03French, I said.
15:04How hard can it be?
15:06French babies learn it.
15:07Idiot.
15:09I swear, someday my pants are gonna fall right off.
15:16Buffy's so beautiful.
15:19I mean, oh, look at that body.
15:23God, I'd love to shove her against that wall
15:27right now and just...
15:33Is this the thing?
15:34The aspect thing?
15:35Because I gotta say, if it is,
15:36it is way better than a tail.
15:38I mean, I have a hard enough time
15:40as it is finding jeans that fit right.
15:41Buffy, slow down.
15:44Um, I'm not even convinced
15:47that this is genuine mind-reading.
15:52I mean, you're most likely projecting your...
15:55When I walked in a few minutes ago,
15:56you thought, look at her shoes.
15:59If a fashion magazine told her to,
16:00she'd wear a cat strap to her feet.
16:04I, um, the demons are telepathic.
16:07I should have known.
16:08That's why they don't need mouths.
16:10Of course.
16:11Demons are telepathic.
16:12I know.
16:13You just told me.
16:15That's why they don't need mouths.
16:17And you should have known.
16:19I...
16:21This is astounding.
16:22It was happening out in the hallway.
16:24I mean, Principal Snyder has walk
16:26like an Egyptian stuck in his head.
16:28And the boys of this school are seriously disturbed.
16:32It's weird, but Giles, think about it.
16:35I mean, think about what I could do.
16:37Oh, it could be very useful.
16:39You could, uh, anticipate your opponent's every move.
16:42You could turn his plans against him.
16:44Oh, way better than that.
16:47Jealousy.
16:49Buffy.
16:50Right.
16:52Very good.
16:54Jealousy clearly is the tool that Iago uses
16:58to undo Othello.
17:00But what's his motivation?
17:02What reason does Iago give
17:04for destroying his superior officer?
17:07Cassio has my place.
17:09Pricks my sheets, he's done my office.
17:12Well, he was passed over for promotion.
17:16Cassio was picked instead.
17:18And people were saying that
17:20Othello slept with his wife.
17:22Buffy did the reading?
17:24Buffy understood the reading?
17:26When did she study?
17:28Was I supposed to study?
17:30Miss Murray's kind of hot.
17:33I was gonna say Cassio.
17:36Ugh, I hate her.
17:38Any other reason?
17:40Race.
17:41Um, good, Nancy.
17:44Can't overlook that.
17:46Look at them scrambling for the teacher's praise
17:48like pigeons for old bread crusts.
17:51Will, who's that guy?
17:56It's Freddy Iverson.
17:58He writes those editorials for the school paper?
18:02He's so atomic.
18:03Bread crusts.
18:05That's deep.
18:06I should write that down.
18:10Is there something else at work here?
18:13Well, he, um...
18:15He sort of admits himself
18:17that his motives are...
18:20spurious.
18:21He, um...
18:23He does things because he enjoys them.
18:28It's like he's not really a person.
18:32He's a...
18:34the dark half of Othello himself.
18:38Whoa.
18:41Buffy.
18:43Really.
18:45Very astute.
18:47I said something quite like that in my dissertation.
18:50I know.
18:52I mean, I agree with that.
18:56Yes, and doesn't that also explain
18:59Othello's readiness to believe Iago?
19:02Within seconds, he turns on Desdemona.
19:05He believes that she's been unfaithful.
19:08And we're all like that.
19:10We all have our little internal Iagos
19:14that tell us our husbands or our girlfriends or whatever
19:19don't really love us.
19:21We can never really see what's in someone's heart.
19:31Oh, sorry.
19:33Sorry about the daytime.
19:36I just ducked out of school,
19:38and that's when they have it.
19:42Um...
19:44you look good.
19:46I mean, I know I saw you last night,
19:48but sometimes things can change real quick.
19:54I mean, really quickly.
19:56Listen to me. I'm talking like Faith.
20:01You know, not that she was so bad to have around.
20:06You know, before the evil.
20:09You know, I think she was hurting a lot.
20:13And some people, protective-type people,
20:17might be drawn to that, I guess.
20:21Well, the thing about Faith...
20:23You can't get into my mind.
20:25How did she...
20:27Why not?
20:29It's like the mirror.
20:31The thoughts are there,
20:33but they create no reflection in you.
20:38You got your aspect of the demon.
20:42Yeah.
20:44Giles doesn't know how long it's gonna last.
20:48It's okay. A little headachy, but...
20:50You don't have to play games with me, Buffy.
20:54Never.
20:56Well, you're not exactly Joe.
20:58Here's what I'm thinking.
21:00So ask me.
21:02Oh, but that would have made sense.
21:04What do you want to know about?
21:07Faith?
21:09How I felt kissing her?
21:11Pretending to have no soul?
21:13Watching you suffer?
21:15Well, since you bring it up...
21:17I hated hurting you.
21:19More than I could stand.
21:23Look, the thing about Faith...
21:27I'd understand.
21:29You know, she has that whole
21:31bad-girl thing working for her.
21:33Kissing her meant nothing.
21:35I don't want a bad girl.
21:37I've done that before.
21:43I've lived a long time, Buffy,
21:45and I'm past that.
21:47I've been with dozens of girls
21:49like her. More.
21:53Oh, this honesty stuff is fun.
21:55And there's no comparison.
21:59In 243 years,
22:01I've loved exactly one person.
22:05Oh.
22:09It is me, right?
22:13Next time,
22:15just ask.
22:17Okay.
22:21Buffy,
22:23be careful with this gift.
22:25A lot of things that seem strong
22:27and good and powerful,
22:29they can be painful.
22:31Like, say...
22:34Immortality?
22:36Exactly.
22:38I'm dying to get rid of that.
22:40Funny?
22:42I'm a funny guy.
22:44She can read our minds,
22:46our every impulse and fantasy.
22:48Everyone?
22:50Oh, God.
22:52I don't see what this has to do with me.
22:54I don't see what this has to do with me.
22:56Well, I think it's great, right?
22:58I mean, you enjoy your other slayer powers.
23:00Yeah, it'll be fun.
23:03Did you see Nancy Doyle's face in English class today?
23:05Yeah.
23:07She's hardly even human anymore.
23:09How can I be her friend now?
23:11She doesn't need me.
23:13No, I do need you.
23:15Okay, what are you talking about?
23:17Because you are so creepy right now.
23:19I think there must be
23:21some precedence
23:23for our current status.
23:25I'll research it.
23:27Wesley, can you give me a hand?
23:29Of course.
23:32I am my thoughts.
23:34If they exist in her,
23:36Buffy contains everything that is me
23:38and she becomes me.
23:40I cease to exist.
23:42What am I going to do?
23:44I think about sex all the time.
23:46Sex. Help.
23:48Four times five is thirty.
23:50Five times six is thirty-two.
23:52Naked girls. Naked women.
23:54Naked Buffy.
23:56Oh, stop me.
23:58God, Xander, is that all you think about?
24:01Actually?
24:03Bye.
24:05Xander has just
24:07illustrated something.
24:09Chances are you're all going to be thinking
24:11whatever you least want Buffy to hear.
24:13It's a question,
24:15of course, of mental discipline.
24:17That's right.
24:19Look at Cordelia.
24:21No, don't look at Cordelia.
24:23She's a student.
24:25Oh, I am bad.
24:27I'm a bad, bad man.
24:31Excuse me.
24:33What's it like, Buffy?
24:35I don't know.
24:37It's a little weird, but...
24:39Look,
24:41please don't for a second think that I don't need you
24:43because I do.
24:45I want to share this with you.
24:47It's like
24:49all these doors are opening to all these little worlds
24:51and I can just walk right inside.
24:53No one else exists either.
24:55Buffy is all of us.
24:57We think. Therefore, she is.
24:59She knows so much.
25:01She knows what Oz is thinking.
25:03I never knew that.
25:05Before long, she'll know him better than I do.
25:07No, don't think that.
25:09I can't help it, Buffy.
25:11I'm sorry.
25:13I just can't.
25:15If you don't need me,
25:17I'm going to follow the redhead.
25:23I guess I won't be writing that book,
25:25Winning Friends Through Telepathy.
25:28Whatever. I wonder when I can go.
25:30Whatever. Can I go?
25:32Excuse me.
25:34Can you hear me thinking in here?
25:36I could go out into the hall.
25:38You know what? You stay.
25:40I'm getting a headache. I'll go.
25:46She is so hot.
25:48I hate my body.
25:50I'm sorry.
25:52I'm sorry.
25:54What if I never get breast?
25:57I can't believe the test is today.
25:59I have the worst...
26:01It's that easy.
26:07I hate her.
26:13Here.
26:15It's happened before.
26:17A man in Ecuador.
26:19Quite recently.
26:21Can we contact him?
26:23I'd say not. He can't communicate with anyone.
26:26Dead?
26:28No. He's in complete isolation.
26:30Power.
26:34He can't shut it off.
26:38It's got to get better.
26:40Please tell me it gets better.
26:42I hate school.
26:44My normal.
26:46Too stupid.
26:50Are you through with the mashed potatoes?
26:53She doesn't even know I'm here.
26:55Look at everyone.
26:57What is this?
26:59Come on.
27:01Come on.
27:03Remember that skirt yesterday?
27:05What am I supposed to fly us down?
27:15The test is today.
27:23Remember?
27:35This time tomorrow,
27:37I'll kill you all.
27:39The next day.
28:01I don't like being here.
28:05I bet she's dead.
28:09Okay, did you show her?
28:13She touched me.
28:40I think she's waking up.
28:42It's okay.
28:43Oh, thank God.
28:44Her eyes are opening.
28:46Gold.
28:47You all right?
28:48I told them not to move you.
28:50They probably severed your spinal cord.
28:53I'm okay.
28:55You bumpy?
28:56No, really, I'm okay.
28:57Listen, there's a killer in the cafeteria.
29:00See, I've been saying for years that the lunch lady's gonna do us all in with that mulligan stew.
29:05Xander.
29:06I mean, what the hell's a mulligan?
29:08Someone was thinking it.
29:09They thought, this time tomorrow, I'll kill you all.
29:12I have to find them.
29:14Did you recognize a voice?
29:19No.
29:20Who were your girl?
29:21I don't know.
29:22It was hardly human.
29:24It was so full of anger and pain.
29:30I can't see them.
29:31I can't.
29:32No, I have to find them.
29:34Are you sure they meant it?
29:36Yeah, I mean, who hasn't just idly thought about taking out the whole place with a semi-automatic?
29:44I said idly.
29:46I know the difference.
29:48He, she, whoever, they meant it.
29:52They're gonna do it.
29:53She looks so tired.
29:55How horrible.
29:56I'm not getting any warmer.
29:58I bet it was hell.
29:59Who could it be?
30:00Shut up!
30:02I'm sorry.
30:04Just, could you guys not think so loud?
30:08Or so much?
30:10Puffy, you should go home.
30:11I'll take you home.
30:12Yeah, okay.
30:13No.
30:14Look, I need you guys to go back to the cafeteria.
30:16Make a list of everyone who's there.
30:18We have to find the killer before lunch tomorrow.
30:21We'll do it, Puffy.
30:22A list of all the students.
30:24Yeah.
30:25Nancy was there.
30:26She's scary.
30:27And, oh, teachers, too.
30:29Mr. Beach, he thought something about getting rid of all the students.
30:32Come on.
30:34I can't shut it out, Giles.
30:37It's like this invasion of my head.
30:39It's like there are these strangers walking around in there.
30:43Look at this.
30:44I can't even be around people anymore.
30:47Not if they're really clamoring to be near me anyway.
30:51Even you.
30:53I'm sorry, Buffy.
30:54It's hard for all of us.
30:57Wesley and I are looking for a way to help.
31:01I'll be okay, right?
31:03I mean, even if you can't get rid of it.
31:05You'll be fine.
31:06I promise.
31:08If it doesn't go away, she'll go insane.
31:13I think we have everyone that was in the cafeteria.
31:16I'll do some computer work, match it against the FBI mass murderer profiles,
31:21see if maybe we can rule some people out.
31:24I'm still having trouble with the fact that one of us is just going to gun everybody down for no reason.
31:29Yeah, because that never happened in American high schools.
31:33It's bordering on trendy at this point.
31:35Besides which, Sunnydale High?
31:37Center of evil and all that?
31:40Let's get to work.
31:42We have until lunchtime tomorrow.
31:44We hope.
31:49There.
31:50You look better already.
31:51Thanks, Mom.
31:53I'm just going to get you another pillow.
31:56I really don't need one.
31:58But you need another blanket.
32:02Mom, I'm fine.
32:07How about some soup?
32:11Chicken and stars?
32:13Mom, please, just come sit with me.
32:17I've got laundry.
32:21Why are you...
32:25You had sex with Giles?
32:28You had sex with Giles?
32:31It was the candy. We were teenagers.
32:33On the hood of a police car?
32:36I'll be downstairs.
32:38You feel better.
32:40Twice?
32:42Okay, I've taken our list and narrowed it down to a dozen strong suspects.
32:47Here are your personalized assignments.
32:50Oh, I was hoping there'd be assignments.
32:52I think I should work with Wesley.
32:55You have no shame.
32:57Oh, please, like shame is something to be proud of?
33:00Be quiet!
33:03Sorry, but this is important.
33:06Okay, talk to everyone on your list.
33:09And use the sample questions.
33:14Today, people...
33:19Write neatly and label your worksheets.
33:29Fantasies are fun, aren't they, Jonathan?
33:34I guess.
33:37We all have fantasies where we're powerful and respected.
33:44Where people pay attention to us.
33:48Maybe.
33:50But sometimes the fantasy isn't enough, is it, Jonathan?
33:55Sometimes we have to make it so people don't ignore us.
34:00Make them pay attention.
34:03You know what I'm talking about, don't you?
34:08You want me to pay attention?
34:14This is for the yearbook?
34:17Yeah, personality profiles.
34:19Can you ask it again?
34:21Sure. Do you ever feel that you've created a false persona for yourself,
34:25the guy who does everything right,
34:27and how much of a strain does it put on you to maintain it?
34:30Oh, wow, I guess moderate strain?
34:35Is that a good answer? I want to get this right.
34:39Yeah, that's good.
34:43Hi, Mr. Beach.
34:45I was just wondering, were you planning on killing a bunch of people tomorrow?
34:49Oh, it's for the yearbook.
34:51Okay, so turn-offs include smoking, insensitive men, and Birkenstocks.
34:57Now, your idea of the perfect romantic evening.
35:01Candy, let's start with you.
35:04Ready?
35:12Okay.
35:33He should have just quit.
35:35Look at him smiling like he thinks I don't know about her.
35:39Maybe.
35:41I can't believe we're getting away with this.
35:43One more drink, and we're done.
35:48He's not struggling again. All right!
35:52Just a little drink, right?
35:54Sure, sure.
35:56If you're a girl, I'll give it to you.
35:58If you're a man, I'll give it to you.
36:00If you're a boy, I'll give it to you.
36:02If you're rich, I'll give it to you.
36:04If you're poor, I'll give it to you.
36:11Well, seems to be coming along all right.
36:14Yes, Buff is being driven mad.
36:16We have no proof that this is going to work,
36:18and it still requires the heart of the second demon,
36:20which we have no idea how to get without the slur.
36:24Negative thinking doesn't solve problems.
36:28Who is going to get the demon heart?
36:31Burke.
36:41No!
37:12No.
37:26Do I often imagine classmates are spying on me
37:30or otherwise acting suspiciously?
37:33Right.
37:35Not till just now.
37:41What?
37:43Talk louder, dude.
37:45I'm just saying it's got to be frustrating.
37:48Having the secret.
37:50You got to be kind of filling up with resentment.
37:53Unexpressed rage just waiting to burst out.
37:57Today at lunch.
37:59What secret? Being gay?
38:02Man, I'm out.
38:05I'm so out, I've got my grandma fixing me up with guys.
38:09It's, um, nice.
38:12But it sounds like, um, you're having a rough time with it.
38:18Look.
38:21Just do it.
38:24That weird Freddie Iverson guy that does the school paper?
38:27He's gay?
38:29No, dude, but I bet he put in, like, a coming-out announcement for you.
38:34Something tasteful.
38:39Come on.
38:45Freddie?
38:49He's the only one we couldn't find?
38:51Yeah, Freddie Iverson.
38:53The newspaper guy?
38:55But we can't figure out it's him without the worksheet, right?
38:58We do have this, people.
39:00Today's editorial, titled,
39:02Big Game Draws Mindless Braindead Mob.
39:04Does he mention the cheerleaders? Because we were on.
39:09I can't stand this.
39:13I keep wondering if I'm hurting her with my thoughts.
39:17I'm not. Not anymore.
39:20She can't pick one thought out of the...
39:24out of the den.
39:27I got it.
39:32No.
39:34I'm gonna help you.
39:37I got it.
39:42No.
39:44I'm gonna help you.
40:06Charles!
40:36Charles!
40:55Agent.
40:58Thank God.
41:01Are you all right?
41:03Do you hear thoughts?
41:06No.
41:08Did you find the killer?
41:14Okay, Oz.
41:16You got me.
41:18What are your friends gonna do, hold me down?
41:20You better believe it, Buster.
41:23You can't threaten a big murder without getting us pretty darn ticked.
41:27Murder?
41:29What murder?
41:31You're not here about the review?
41:33The review?
41:35Last Thursday.
41:41Dingoes ate my baby, played their instruments
41:44as if they had plump Polish sausages taped to their fingers.
41:49Sorry, man.
41:53No, it's fair.
41:55I just get a lot of hate mail,
41:57and I thought you were gonna come and deliver some personally.
42:00Hey, if you find any tasteful announcement about me from Larry...
42:03Sandra, we have to figure this out.
42:05We have no shot.
42:07The killer could be anyone.
42:09We'd lose.
42:11We still have a few minutes.
42:13Buffy!
42:14You're okay.
42:15Can you hear thoughts?
42:18Just when I wasn't thinking about sex.
42:20Okay, here's the new plan.
42:22We're gonna get Sandra to evacuate the school
42:24and just hope the killer's not waiting outside.
42:26By this time tomorrow, you all know what I've done.
42:29I'm sure you understand that I had to do it
42:32and that although death is never easy,
42:35it's the only way.
42:37God, doesn't anyone write in to praise the cheerleaders?
42:42We are so unsung.
42:44Jonathan.
42:46I had him in my grasp.
42:48Slippery weasel.
42:50Split up. Find him.
43:03Jonathan?
43:05Are you in here?
43:11Jonathan!
43:13Jonathan!
43:15Ooh, Jell-O.
43:19Jonathan!
43:21Jonathan!
43:23Ooh, Jell-O.
43:48Thanks.
44:19I could have done that.
44:33Get away from me.
44:37Okay, Jonathan, you want to point that somewhere else?
44:41I don't know.
44:44Okay, Jonathan, you want to point that somewhere else?
44:48Don't you try and stop me.
44:51No.
44:53No, no stopping.
44:55Just here for the view.
44:58Hey, look, City Hall.
45:00Go away.
45:04Never gonna happen.
45:06You think I won't use this?
45:09I don't know, Jonathan.
45:11I just...
45:13Stop doing that.
45:16Doing what?
45:18Stop saying my name like we're friends.
45:22We're not friends.
45:25You all think I'm an idiot.
45:28A short idiot.
45:32I don't.
45:37I don't think about you much at all.
45:41Nobody here really does.
45:46Bugs you, doesn't it?
45:49You have all this pain, all these feelings,
45:53and nobody's really paying attention.
45:56You think I just want attention?
45:59No, I think you're up in the clock tower with a high-powered rifle
46:02because you want to blend in.
46:05Believe it or not, Jonathan,
46:08I understand about the pain.
46:10Oh, right.
46:12Because the burden of being beautiful and athletic,
46:15that's a crippler.
46:18You know what? I was wrong.
46:20You are an idiot.
46:24My life happens to, on occasion,
46:27suck beyond the telling of it.
46:31Sometimes more than I can handle.
46:34And it's not just mine.
46:37Every single person down there is ignoring your pain
46:41because they're too busy with their own.
46:46The beautiful ones,
46:49the popular ones,
46:52the guys that pick on you.
46:56Everyone.
47:03You could hear what they were feeling.
47:07The loneliness, the confusion.
47:13It looks quiet down there.
47:17It's not.
47:19It's deafening.
47:28You know, I could have taken that by now.
47:33I know.
47:38I'd rather do it this way.
47:56I just wanted it to stop.
47:59Yeah, well, mass murder,
48:01not really doctor-recommended for that kind of pain.
48:04Besides prison, you know, it's a lot like high school,
48:07only instead of noogies.
48:09What are you talking about?
48:11Actions having consequences, you know, stuff like that.
48:14Well, I...
48:16I wouldn't ever hurt anybody.
48:21I came up here to kill myself.
48:34Oh, shit.
48:52Oh, crap! What is it?
48:54Oh, crap! What is it?
48:56Oh, crap! What is it?
48:58What is it?
49:00Oh, crap!
49:08Okay, let's calm down.
49:10Furman.
49:12You're all Furman.
49:14You come in here and you eat,
49:16and you eat...
49:18filth.
49:20I don't see this being settled with logic.
49:31Oh!
49:45So you're feeling better about Angel?
49:48Well, we talked,
49:50and then he ripped out the heart of a demon and fed it to me,
49:53and then we talked some more.
49:55See? That's how it should work.
49:57Morning. Hi, Giles.
49:59Oh, I should get to the yearbook office.
50:02I'm gonna give them the murderer profiles.
50:04They're really a good read.
50:06Bye. See ya.
50:08How are you?
50:10Love in the quiet. Nobody in here but me.
50:13Jonathan, how's he?
50:15Pretty crappy.
50:17His parents are freaking.
50:19He got suspended and toting a piece to school
50:22and not exactly winning him a place with the in crowd.
50:25I think he's dealing.
50:27It's good of you to check on him.
50:29Well, it's nice to be able to help someone
50:32in a non-slaying capacity.
50:34Except he's starting to get that look.
50:37You know, like he's gonna ask me to prom.
50:40Well, it'd probably be good for his self-esteem if you...
50:43Oh, come on. What am I, St. Buffy?
50:46He's, like, three feet tall.
50:48I'm glad to see you've recovered
50:50from your psychic encounter more or less intact.
50:53Feel up to some training?
50:55Sure. We can work out after school.
50:57You know, if you're not too busy having sex with my mother.
51:23Grr! Arrgh!
