JASMINE: (recorded) Before the time of man, great beings walked the Earth. Untold power emanated from all quarters—

JASMINE: (stops the playback and laughs) I sound like the prologue to one of those movies about magical dwarves.

GUNN: Hobbits. And you watch movies?

JASMINE: I love movies.

LORNE: Well, then you should know this is the greatest story ever told.

JASMINE: Sweet.

WESLEY: The design team will have your site ready to go in a couple of days. Just let me know when you want it to go online.

JASMINE: Soon.

GUNN: I still don't understand why you don't just sashay into a TV studio, say, scoot over Regis and sweet-talk your love to the whole wide world.

JASMINE: It's not the world's time yet. There's still a lot I have to learn. (there's a knock at the door) Come in.

ANGEL: You called us.

CONNOR: How did you do that?

ANGEL: We felt it.

JASMINE: We're all becoming connected—all of us. And, now that you're all here, I want to test that connection. We're going to find Fred.

CONNOR: Isn't that what we've been trying to do?

JASMINE: This is different. No more running around town. Everybody, join hands. I can't do this alone. Not yet. I want y'all to close your eyes. Now, picture Fred. Picture what she looks like: her face, her big brown eyes, the way she styles her hair, the clothes she likes the wear, the sound of her voice, what she looks like when she smiles. Now concentrate. Where are you, Fred? I'm looking for you.

(Fred walks up to the motel desk to ask for her room key.)

FRED: 219.

DESK CLERK: Sure. Here you go.

FRED: Thanks.

(an old woman looks at Fred)

JASMINE: I see her. I see Fred.

(everyone at the motel starts chasing Fred)

JASMINE: There's nowhere to run, dear. My love is all around you.

(there's an accident, and one of the men chasing Fred catches on fire. Burning, he still comes after her)

BURNING MAN: Fred, don't be afraid. Don't be afraid, Fred.

(Jasmine's hand starts to smoke)

CONNOR: (lets go, breaking the circle and the connection) Ah!

ANGEL: Easy! Lorne, a chair!

WESLEY: What happened?

CONNOR: Her hand got hot.

WESLEY: (inspecting Jasmine's hand) She's badly burned.

LORNE: Call a doctor

JASMINE: No, no, I'll be fine. I just need to rest.

ANGEL: We should get you a doctor.

JASMINE: I'm fine. I saw Fred, clear as I'm seeing you. Obviously, there're some painful kinks to work out, but it's a start.

CONNOR: She got away, didn't she?

JASMINE: Yes. But don't worry. Everybody who loves me now knows what she looks like, knows to catch her, knows to call us. There's no place Fred can hide.

WESLEY: What do you want us to do?

JASMINE: You already know.

ANGEL: She's right. There's work to do here. We have a hotel full of people, people who have needs.

LORNE: You know what they say about people who need people...

CONNOR: They're the luckiest people in the world.

LORNE: You been sneaking peeks at my Streisand collection again, kiddo?

CONNOR: Just kinda popped out.

JASMINE: This is what I'm talking about. Everything is becoming connected—the same way I saw Fred.

ANGEL: Are you saying that we're becoming psychic?

JASMINE: No, what I'm saying is—

GUNN: Hot water just went out down on the third floor—

WESLEY: And there's a plumber in the lobby who can (astonished) help us.

JASMINE: That's what I'm saying. Now, I need to rest, focus on healing my hand. Oh, there're a pair of sisters in the lobby.

ANGEL: Blondes.

LORNE: The Bailey twins.

GUNN: I'll ask them if they'd like to come up and visit you.

JASMINE: Exactly what I was thinking. This is only the beginning. No one will ever have to feel lonely again.
