Synopsis:
The underworld version of Sid Vicious, Spike, returns to
Sunnydale in search of the vampire version of the Holy Grail,
a mythical relic that supposedly engenders the wearer with unimaginable
powers, and it's up to Buffy to stop him. Meanwhile, Buffy is
distracted by dating issues as she deals with her feelings for
a new boy who happens to not be a blood-sucking vampire, but
is equally as difficult to understand. Xander has romance issues
of his own when his prom date from last spring, Anya, can't
get the X-man out of her mind.
