(The Initiative. The guys set out in camo. Meanwhile, Buffy patrols a street with houses and yards. Cut to Riley, who spots activity at the clocktower.)

(Cut to Tara' dorm room. She has looked Willow's room number up, as well as some spells on speech. She grabs her stuff and heads out to find Willow. Once outside though, she hears the jingling of the lackies' straitjacket buckles, looks up, gets scared, and starts running.)

(Meanwhile, Buffy sees a Gentleman gliding on the other side of the street but is tackled by a lackey springing from behind a bush before she acts.)

(Cut to Tara, runnning down the hall and she banging on a doors. Everyone is too scared to open up. Tara keeps running.)

(Back on street, Buffy fights several lackies. She takes one down, then chases the fleeing one.)

(Clocktower, lower level. Riley enters a door. He is tackled from and rolls loose and kicks it away in the head. He pulls an extendable club/rod from his boot. Three blows knock it to the ground but another grabs him.)

(Dorm hall. Tara runs up the stairs and bangs on doors. Willow hears the banging and wakes up. She was dressed and asleep at her computer. Willow is afraid. She goes hesitantly toward her door. The door Tara is banging on opens and a Gentleman holding a heart looks at her. Two more float near the stairs she just came up. Tara runs around the corner. Willow opens her door and is looking the other way when Tara runs into her and they both fall. Willow grabs at her leg and yelps silently.

She sees two of the Gentlemen followed by two lackeys. They both get up and run to another stairway mere steps away. Willow is limping.)
