BUFFY: ...the others just yet. It'll give us a chance to?

KENNEDY: Sorry about the British invasion.

MOLLY: We've been up for hours.

ANNABELLE: 4 P.M. London time.

KENNEDY: Are you all right? You look...

BUFFY: Oh. Yeah, I'm OK. I just got into a fight is all. You want to tell me with what?

GILES: Yes, Buffy, but don't you think we should, uh, discuss this privately?

BUFFY: You mean, not in front of the next generation? No time to coddle them, Giles. Welcome to the war room, guys.

GILES: Uh, what you fought was a vampire, but it was, um, something more than that. It was a Turok-Han. As Neanderthals are to human beings, the Turok-Han are to vampires. Primordial, ferociously powerful killing machines, as single-minded as animals. They are the vampires that vampires fear. An ancient and entirely different race and, until this morning, I thought they were a myth.

BUFFY: So, The First shows up, and now this? You think it's a coincidence?

GILES: I think it's more likely that the Turok-Han is here as an agent of The First.

ANNABELLE: Um, did you slay it?

BUFFY: No, it's still out there, somewhere.

MOLLY: What's it want?

BUFFY: All of us dead. But for now it looks like sunlight is keeping this UberVamp away.

GILES: So, until sunset, I suggest you get some rest. A few hours sleep will do a world of difference.

BUFFY: No sleep today. Can't.

GILES: Oh, come on, you're exhausted.

BUFFY: Ah, it comes with the gig. Somehow I don't think taking on prehistoric evil comes with nap time. Sorry, potential guys. I know you came a long way, and you wanna get into it, but the best thing you can do right now is just sit tight, wait it out. I'm gonna go to work, see what I can find out. I'll be back before sunset.

GILES: How do you plan to research something as ill-defined as The First?

BUFFY: I have the best plan ever.
