(Night in a graveyard. Buffy is fighting with a vampire while Parker is lying on the ground.)

PARKER: Buffy?

BUFFY: Parker? Stay down.

(She continues to fight the vamp while two other vampires grab Parker and start hauling him away.)

PARKER: Buffy!!!

(Buffy runs to Parker's rescue, dusting all three vamps. )

PARKER: Buffy, I don't know what to say. After the way I've treated you, and now I owe you my life

BUFFY: It's nothing.

PARKER: It's everything. You're everything. And I'm going to do whatever it takes to get you to forgive me. Do you think one day you might .

Girl (giggling) Noooo.

(Cut to Prof. Walsh's Psyche class. A girl is giggling beside Parker while Buffy watches behind them.)

Prof. WALSH: These are the things we want. Simple things. Comfort, sex, shelter, food. We always want them and we want them all the time. The id doesn't learn it doesn't grow up. It has the ego telling it what it can't have and it has the superego telling it what it should want. But the id works solely out of the pleasure principle. It wants. Whatever social skills you've learned, however much we've evolved, the pleasure principal is at work in all of us. So, how does this conflict with the ego manifest itself in the psyche? What do we do when we can't have what we want?

(Cut back to the graveyard scene again. Buffy stakes all the vamps.)

PARKER: Buffy, I don't know what to say. After the way I've treated you, and now I owe you my life.

(We see that Parker now has a bouquet of flowers and ice cream in his hand)

PARKER: Can you ever forgive me?
