Report from Buffynuts
There were ten actors: Buffy, Willow, Xander, Dawn, Andrew, and five teenage
girls. Most of the actors were carrying weapons.
Buffy was wearing jeans and a dark leather jacket; her hair was in a clubbed
ponytail. Xander was wearing jeans and a blue shirt, and he was carrying
an axe. Willow was wearing jeans, a grey sweater, and really cool suede
boots; her hair was loose. She was carrying what looked like a wand. It
was a stick about two feet long with a silver pointed thing on top that
looked like a Christmas ornament. Dawn was in an orange sweater and was
carrying an axe. Andrew had what looked like a bottle of holy water in
his hand; it was hard to see and I thought at first that it was a small
gun.
One of the teenage girls had a line; her character's name was Molly. She
had round poodle pigtails and a fluffy pink coat, and she spoke with some
sort of foreign accent -- Australian? She was carrying a stake. One girl
was African-American and was wearing overalls. Another had short red hair
and was wearing a striped sweater. One of the girls was carrying a crossbow.
There was a monster that the crew was calling the "UberVamp."
He didn't look like a regular vampire; he was bald and ghoulish, like
the Master but not as bat-like, and he didn't have fruit punch mouth.
He was wearing brown tattered rags, and he looked like he'd been dead
and possibly even rotting for a while.
They started from a point down the street, with the UberVamp behind them,
and all ten ran up to one spot and stopped. I didn't get all of the lines,
but I heard these: Buffy said something about "It was right behind
us this time. We need to split up." Molly said, "Do you think
that's wise?" Dawn said, "What are you going to do? You can't
take that thing on by yourself." (No ordinary vampire, for sure,
then.) Buffy took the bottle or whatever from Andrew, who protested, saying,
"Hey, I need that." Buffy put the bottle in her back pocket.
She said, "Willow, Xander, get everybody out of here, now!"
Willow led the group off the street. Dawn tried to stay; she didn't want
to leave Buffy with the UberVamp, but Xander said something to her and
pulled her away. Everyone but Buffy ran off. Buffy turned and faced the
UberVamp.
This scene was shot several times from several different angles, with
different close-ups, etc. Then they set up a stunt shot Buffy fighting
the UberVamp. I wasn't able to see anything else, but I'm assuming Buffy
won.

First, the big news! I asked Juliet Landau if she would be doing Buffy
again, and she confirmed that she was; in fact, she had been filming a
Buffy episode until 5:30 that very morning. She's going to be doing another
Buffy episode "further on", but probably won't be doing any
Angel episodes this season.

I've just returned from teh Mid-Ohio con in Columbus Oh...and there I
met, James Leary-the actor who plays Clem. Mark Lutz-aka Groo, and Andy
Hallet-aka Lorne/the Host.
I talked to each one individually and tried to pry some spoilers out of
them...the only thing James would say re: Clem, was watch for him sometime
after Christmas.

From jcd1980: Be a pal and give us Buffy scoop. Something juicy this time.
Big happenings up ahead with the international slayer I told you about
last week. This new femme fatale is going to play into the "from
beneath you" storyline and--from the looks of it--could possibly
spin off into her own international-angled show. They are still casting
the part (after the original British actress had to turn it down, because
she didn't have a work permit).
From turnofthecentury: Mrs. Pathetic Couch-Potato Recluse, please tell
us that Giles isn't dead. Everyone seems to be dying in Buffy all of a
sudden. Before you know it, Buffy is going to be the new Survivor series.
He is not dead. Giles returns in the following two eps. Love, Mz. P.C.-P.R.
From sandor1: Is Amber Benson (Tara) returning to Buffy at all this season?
No. At least there aren't any plans as of now.
From rhymecat: Is Principal Woods a Watcher?
I spoke to D.B. Woodside last week, and something is definitely in the
works between Woodsy and Buffy. He was extremely tight-lipped, but I'll
give you the lowdown on what he said in this week's column. Sounds like
things are heating up, big-time.

ON THE BRINK OF THE APOCALYPSE, GILES AND THREE
SLAYERS-IN-TRAINING ARRIVE IN SUNNYDALE, AS BUFFY CLASHES WITH THE UBERVAMP.
"Bring On the Night" – Buffy and the Scoobie gang struggle
mightily to find a way to destroy the Ubervamp and are relieved when they
are joined in the battle by the sudden arrival of Giles and three young
would-be slayers.Meanwhile, Spike barely endures the tortuous interrogation
by The First until Buffy arrives to confront him and save Spike. David
Grossman directed from a script by Marti Noxon and Douglas Petrie.
Reported by Anonymous on 12-4-02
From the ep. 10 script:
"Note: It is VERY important that Giles not touch or be touched by
anything. He can walk and talk-- but he can't fiddle or cuddle or caress.
Got it?"
When Giles arrives he brings 3 girls (Molly, Annabelle and Kennedy) with
him who are slayers in training. Those are apparently what those girls
(from Istanbul and Germany) were who were killed in the beginning of a
couple of those episodes by those monk guys (the Bringers). Apparently
the First has been tracking down slayers in training (potential slayers)
and their watchers and has been killing them all off. So now all the remaining
slayers in training in the world are heading to Sunnydale for protection.
One of the 3 potential slayers (Annabelle) that Giles brings with her
is killed in this episode by the Ubervamp.
Spike is tortured throughout the episode by the Ubervamp. The First talks
to him, mostly in the form of Druisilla and Evil Spike. The Ubervamp repeatedly
drowns Spike and beats him to a pulp. Spike tells Druisilla/First that
he's out... that they can't pull his strings anymore. Druisilla/First
asks Spike what makes him think he has a choice and what makes him think
he will ever be any good at all in this world. Spike replies, "She
does. Because she believes in me."
Buffy and the gang find the Seal of Danzalthar in the school basement
that was activated by Spike's blood. (Spike and the Bringers, etc. aren't
there anymore) They take shovels and decide to cover it up. Afterwards
Buffy and Principle Wood run into each other, each carrying a shovel.
(Principle Wood just came back from burying Jonathan) They both give B.S.
excuses for why they are carrying shovels and Principle Wood tells Buffy
since she is feeling better he would like her go back to work at the school.
Buffy has a brief run-in with the Ubervamp while she and Giles go to the
old Xmas tree lot, looking for the Bringers. She escapes only because
of the sun rising (scaring away the vamp) After Annabelle runs away, Buffy
goes out to find her, only to see her being split in half by the Ubervamp.
Then apparently Buffy gets her butt kicked like never before. She can't
even hurt the Ubervamp at all or even get away from him. The gang ends
up finding her almost lifeless body, bloodied with ribs smashed. She bounces
back after some rest at the Summers home with her Slayer fast-healing
abilities and the episode ends with Buffy giving a speach about how the
only thing more powerful than evil is them, and they are going to declare
war on the First and the Bringers.
Join
me in the Crypt of Decryption:
An anonymous source emailed me with credible information regarding episode
10. It indicates that Spike is not rescued in episode 10, as the UPN promo
blurb would suggest. However, it confirms Drusilla's appearance in episode
10 as well as some interesting stage direction regarding Giles. Also,
the Ubervamp appears to be a very strong opponent.
Apparently at the Succubus Club last night it was revealed that Drew Greenberg
would be writing episode 13 and Jane Espenson episode 14. The episode
12 slot then might be Rebecca Rand Kirshner. I should have more information
on this soon.
I don't have a lot of commentary today. I just wanted to get out the news
that Spike is not rescued in episode 10 because I know a lot of people
read the UPN blurb that way.
