out and turns him into Angelus. At present Giles goes to see a new stone
artifact and notices that it can be opened like a tomb. At school, Buffy
declares that she is ready for the showdown with Angel. In London 1860, Drusilla
is still human and heads for church were she confessed to the priest who is actually
Angelus of her visions. In the present, Dru, Angel and Spike read up on the new
artifact and Angel recognizes it. At school Buffy is studying when she drops her
pencil and finds Ms Calendar's disk- the one with Angel's soul restoration.
Angel and co. then steal the artifact. In Rumanian Forest Angel runs while a
gypsy woman completes the spell to giving him his soul. At school, they show the
rest of the gang the spell and only Xander is upset saying that Angel should
pay. Meanwhile we learn from Angel inside is the demon Acathla who can swallow
the Earth into Hell but was killed and turned to stone. Only someone worthy is
able to pull it out and revive Acathla. Kendra visits again bringing a sword
(the one used to kill Acathla) and it may the only hope if Acathla is revived.

Whistler who shows him in LA 15yr old Buffy when she first discovers she
is the Slayer. Present, Angel feed on a human and smears blood on his hand and
tries to pull the sword out but fails and says they'll ask an old friend. At
school in class a vampire walks in and tells Buffy to meet Angel tonight then
dies from the sunlight. Buffy meets alone and fights while at the library they
attempt the spell. The gang are invaded by a group of vamps including Dru. Buffy

under a bookcase, Xander is injured with a broken arm, Cordelia is chased out
and Kendra is killed by Dru. Buffy runs slow motion and rushes in to find Kendra
dead on the floor. As she kneels down a voice orders 'Freeze.' She turns around to find the police and a happy Snyder who believe that she killed Kendra.

At Buffy's home, Joyce hears about the incident from the police. At Giles's home Buffy meets Whistler who tells her that Angel was meant to stop Acathla but they didn't expect Buffy. Buffy leaves before Whistler tells her the key to stopping Acathla. A police officer stops Buffy but is knocked down by Spike who claims to want to help her. Buffy returns home and dusts a vamp in front of Joyce . She invites Spike in and tells Joyce that she is a vampire slayer. Meanwhile Willow wakes and Giles is tortured. Spike and Buffy make a deal that he'll help Buffy if she lets him take Dru out of here and will never come back. Joyce is in denial and fights with Buffy who needs to go. Joyce says that if Buffy leaves she can't come back but Buffy still goes. At the hospital Willow decides to try the spell again, while Buffy returns to school to get Kendra's sword finding Snyder who gleefully expels her. Giles is tricked into telling Angel the secret which is Angel's own blood by Drusilla who pretends to be Jenny. Buffy returns to ask Whistler how to stop Acathla who tells her that Angel's blood opens and closes the portal. She says she has nothing to lose but he quietly comments that she has one more thing.
