Synopsis:
Renegade slayer Faith returns to Sunnydale just in time
to help Buffy and her gang fight a nefarious new foe.
The unusually violent episode opens as a girl flees a group of zombies and takes refuge with a cleric named Caleb. However, it quickly becomes clear that Caleb is not on God's side, but the First's. He asks her to deliver a threatening message to the "original, accept-no-substitutes Slayer"...before stabbing the girl. As the Scoobies respond by preparing for battle, Buffy copes with the return of Faith, who, much to Buffy's chagrin, bonds with Spike. Meanwhile, in a lighter vein, Xander fantasizes about wild times with potential slayers.
