BUFFY: Where's Giles?

WILLOW: He got called to some teacher's meeting. What are we gonna do? I mean... how do we get Xander back?

BUFFY: Right now I'm a little more worried about what the rest of the pack are up to.

GILES: The rest of the pack were spotted outside Herbert the mascot's cage. They were sent to the principal's office.

WILLOW: Good! That'll show 'em. Did it show 'em?

BUFFY: They didn't hurt him, did they?

GILES: They, uh... ate him.

BUFFY: They ate Principal Flutie?

WILLOW: Ate him up?

GILES: The, uh, official theory is that wild dogs got into his office somehow. There was no one at the scene.

WILLOW: But Xander didn't. (to Buffy) He, he was with you.

GILES: Oh! Uh, well, that's a small mercy.

BUFFY: Giles, how do we stop this? How do you trans-possess someone?

GILES: I-I'm afraid I still don't have all the pieces. Um, the accounts of the Primals and their methods are a bit thin on the ground. There is some talk of a-a-a predatory act, but the exact ritual is, is, um... The Malleus Maleficarum deals in particulars of demonic possession, which... may apply... Yes, one, one should be able to transfer the spirits to another human.

BUFFY: Oh, that's great. Any volunteers?

GILES: Oh. Good point.

BUFFY: What we need to do is put the hyena back in the hyena.

GILES: B-but until we know more, uh...

BUFFY: Betcha that zookeeper could tell us. Maybe he didn't quarantine those hyenas because they were sick.

GILES: We should talk to him.

BUFFY: Okay. Oh, wait, somebody's gotta watch Xander.

WILLOW: I will.

BUFFY: Will, are you sure? If he wakes up...

WILLOW: I'll be alright. Go.
