(Arash Ma'har.)

D'hoffren: The pain and suffering you brought upon those you love is inspiring. You are ready to join us here in Arash Ma'har.

WILLOW: Pain.. What pain?

(Cut to Buffy being choked by a demon who's reached through a window.)

SPIKE: Buffy!

XANDER: Not doin' well here.

ANYA: (Still chanting) We come in supplication. We bend as the reed.. in the flow of the, uh.. No, wait.. we-we come in the flow of the, uh.. Ugh! Blesséd be, the name of D'hoffren..

SPIKE: They're strong, and I can't fight. If they get in, I don't know if I can protect you.

BUFFY: You think you have to protect me?

SPIKE: Oh, not with the Girl-Power bit!

(D'hoffren opens a dimensional rift and allows Willow to see her friends getting their asses kicked.)

WILLOW: Oh, God. But I didn't mean to!

D'hoffren: But you did. This is the result of your power. You will make a fine vengeance demon.

WILLOW: No, please! You have to help them!

D'hoffren: It is not my concern. You are my interest in this matter.

WILLOW: Really.. no offense intended.. I mean, you've been super-nice and everything, but.. I don't want to be a demon. I just wanna go back and help my friends.

D'hoffren: That is your answer?

WILLOW: It-it is.

D'hoffren. (Menacingly) I'm sorry to hear that. (Lighter tone) Oh well. Here is my talisman. You change your mind, give us a chant.
