The people of Sunnydale start leaving the town in the episode Dirty Girls, for no apparent reason. Nothing huge has happened recently to force them to do this, except for some trouble at the High School. They’ve withstood much worse events in the past without a murmur of complaint: The Mayor turned into a giant snake and started to eat people before the high school was blown up; the town was attacked by creatures from another dimension in The Gift, which left massive craters in the streets; and this is without mentioning the massive numbers of casualties suffered from an infestation of vampires and demons. The town has a massive mortality rate. People are used to this. So what’s making them leave?

Perhaps everyone’s scrambling to go see Jasmine in LA?

Oh, but that would be funny!
“People over the world, join hands, start a love train!” It’s a song from maybe the 70’s or from the 80’s…. It is so fit for the whole Jasmine thing… :D
