(daytime. Dorm lounge.)

BUFFY: So then after the scorpion, the demon opened my mouth and sucked some kind of weird light out of me. A-and the worst part? I wake up and there's Kathy, staring at me like I'm some kind of freak.

OZ: Well, actually, the worst part, I'd have to go with the demon poring the blood down your throat.

WILLOW: Me too, I would vote for that too.

BUFFY: But that's just a dream, and this Kathy thing is real. All she cared about was that her precious sleep had been disturbed.

GILES: Perhaps it would be more productive to examine your dreams, um, determine there meaning.

Kathy: You can read dreams? Neat.

BUFFY: Giles, Kathy. Kathy, Giles.

WILLOW: He's our grown-up friend. N-not in a creepy way.

GILES: Nice to meet you, Kathy.

Kathy: Ditto. Maybe you could read the dream I had last night? There was, like, this monster, and he sat on me and did all this stuff to me.

OZ: Stuff like, scorpions? And Bloody Mary minus the Mary?

Kathy: That's it! How'd you know?

OZ: Well, I'm a good guesser.

BUFFY: Me too, and I'm guessing that you need to be on your way to class. Right, Kath?

Kathy: Hmm hmm, sounds like somebody woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning.

BUFFY: Hmm hmm, and guess what? You were next to it.

Kathy: You know, I do need to dash. My whole schedule is off because someone kept me up all night. Well, it's been fun. Toodles.

BUFFY: Toodles.

GILES: You know what this means...

BUFFY: Yes. Not only does she take my sweater, but now she has to horn in on my dreams. She is the most ever mooch... Oh, I haven't even gotten to the floss.

GILES: Buffy, focus, please? If Kathy and you are having the same nightmares, chances are something happened to you both when you met the demon in the woods.

WILLOW: So we need to figure out if this ritual their dreaming about has some special use, or meaning.
