I Was Made To Love You
Written by Jane Espenson ~ Directed by James A. Contner




Buffy rants about her problems with Spike to Giles while pounding away at Xander who is wearing a sumo-sized bodysuit. Xander consoles the Slayer about her love life, blaming the Hellmouth for her not being able to find a decent guy. A young woman arrives in Sunnydale by car, searching for her true love. Joyce nervously prepares for a date with a man named Brian with the help of her daughters.

Anya and Tara discuss the Internet and Anya's knowledge of online stock trading and websites. April approaches them, asking if they know where Warren is but when the girls can't help her, April moves onto another person and asks the same question. Buffy and Xander dance at a University party while Anya, Tara and Willow watch on. After dancing, Buffy locates Ben at the party and casually catches his attention. They chat briefly but awkwardly and Buffy asks Ben to dance.

Anya admires the Chex mix with Xander when April arrives at the party, still searching for Warren. Warren just so happens to be at the party and escapes with his date before April discovers him. April questions the people at the party, offering that Warren is her boyfriend and he lost her. Spike approaches Buffy while she's waiting but she tells him off before Ben returns. Ben offers Buffy his number for a possible coffee date and isn't scared off when Buffy warns him of her bad history.

After seeing Buffy with Ben, Spike is inspired to hit on April, but his suggestive comments only anger her and leads her to throw the vampire through a window. Buffy tries to talk to April, but April throws her aside and leaves. Later, at Xander's apartment, the gang unanimously agrees that April is a robot, but concludes she isn't a threat. Buffy returns home and Giles suggests he not watch Dawn alone anymore because he can't take much more exposure to the habits of a young teenager. Joyce returns from her date in an extremely good mood, shocking her daughter with the joke that she left her bra in Brian's car.

April goes door to door searching for Warren's residence. Willow finds Warren Mears on her computer and the house where he could be living. The gang talks about Warren and how he made April to fill a void in his life. Buffy finally gets the guts to call Ben, but the phone rings at Glory's place. She morphs into Ben to answer the phone and a date is made for coffee.

Warren rushes to get packed and move away with his current girlfriend, Katrina, but she doesn't understand why. Buffy shows up at Warren's in search of answers relating to April while Katrina finally walks out upset about being kept in the dark. Spike shows up at the magic shop but meets incredible hostility from the gang, including Dawn. Warren reveals to Buffy that he made April to love him, but she became boring after a while and he left her, letting her batteries run down.

Katrina encounters April at a park and April uses force to make Katrina admit that Warren is her not her boyfriend. Warren finally tells April that he can't love her then April turns on Buffy and the two fight. Buffy damages April's electrical work and she is finally stopped. After talking with April in her final moments, Buffy realizes that she doesn't need a man in her life. Buffy leaves a message for Ben on his answering machine, canceling the date, but Glory listens to the message, not Ben.

Spike confronts Warren about making a robot for him, one based completely on Buffy. Warren refuses, but Spike won't take no for an answer. Buffy calls out to her mother, then finds her lying on the living room couch. Worried by her mother's awkward appearance, Buffy calls out to her, but Joyce doesn't move, doesn't answer.
