00:00What kind of demon I'm fighting?
00:02Laurie isn't a demon. She's a god.
00:04Did you know your sister took my key, Donnie?
00:07And she won't give it back.
00:08I bet you know where she put it, don't you?
00:10They had to be certain the Slayer would protect it with her life.
00:14So they sent the key to her in the form of a sister.
00:18You're the key.
00:19Go.
00:20Before she finds you, she's here.
00:23I love you.
00:24The only chance you had with me was when I was unconscious.
00:27Let's see what you are.
00:31Or who you are.
00:33One soldier in a vast army.
00:36The key is the link.
00:39Link must be severed.
00:40Where is the key?
00:44I die a thousand deaths before I tell you.
00:49No!
00:51No!
00:52No!
00:56No!
00:57I'm so sorry.
01:02What are you going to need?
01:04They give me a lot of stuff to keep her calm.
01:15I told you this wasn't over.
01:18Oh, look at that.
01:19Look at that.
01:21Such pure green energy.
01:23What's my life?
01:41That's a whole life.
01:43What?
01:44Oh, look.
01:45Oh, look at that.
01:46Oh, look.
01:47Oh, look at that.
01:48Oh, look.
01:50Oh, look.
01:51We have to keep moving.
02:09I can't.
02:21I really hate it when people touch my things.
02:33Last word, Slebrot?
02:35Just one.
02:37Truck.
02:38No, not now, you idiot!
02:49Let's hold my body!
02:55Oh, God.
03:19Oh, God.
03:21Oh, God.
03:23Oh, God.
03:25Oh, God.
03:27Oh, God.
03:29Oh, God.
03:31Oh, God.
03:33Oh, God.
03:35Oh, God.
03:37Oh, God.
03:39Oh, God.
03:43Oh, God.
03:45Oh, God.
03:47and then whoosh all of a sudden glory standing right there in front of us all skanky and blonde
04:09and thinking she's all that just because some bumpy heads kiss her stinky feet she does have
04:14nice feet and she's coming right at us and buffy's just standing there not even blinking like bring
04:20it on and wham hell bitch in orbit go buff i knew you'd best glory eventually i mean all our years
04:30of training truck hit her oh you threw it at her well no she more kind of waited for it to hit glory
04:42but then buffy ran really fast and we got away
04:46i don't know how we got away that truck couldn't have slowed her down for more than a second
04:53well how isn't important all that matters is that the two of you are safe
04:57safe we've barely been able to manage not getting seriously dead every time we've crossed paths with
05:08glory now that she knows that dawn is the key
05:11there must be something in the book of tarnas that we've missed something that we can use against
05:19glory piano because that's what used to kill that big demon that one time
05:26no wait that was a rocket launcher on what are you talking about we should drop a piano on her
05:34well it always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with a speech
05:40impediment yes or perhaps we could paint a convincing tunnel on the side of a mountain let's just keep
05:46thinking everyone plus we should reassemble at the magic shop see if there's anything fight her
05:51well not yet no no not ever she's too strong giles we're not going to win this with with stakes
06:01or spells or pulling out some uranium power core she's a god and she's coming for us
06:08so let's just not be here when she starts knocking run away
06:11finally a sensible plan that's not what she meant
06:17is it
06:20we can't stay here
06:23she'll just kill us off one by one until there's no one left standing between her and dawn
06:28buffer we all understand the severity of the situation but there must be another no
06:35we stay we die show of hands for that option
06:39all right nobody goes home nobody tells anybody we're leaving
06:50just pack up whatever supplies we need and that's it we're gone
06:54cool don't have to study for that geometry test
06:59what about wheels i don't think everybody's gonna fit in the xandermobile
07:05just get your stuff together i'll handle the rest
07:10this is this is terrible i'll never be able to mend this
07:20not really my color anyway oh yes inappropriate humor most amusing
07:26don't suppose you know what led to this sartorial tragedy
07:31that's not how it works you know that yes of course
07:35i just thought maybe after her magnificent incandescence was returned to this
07:41manly and painfully handsome assemblage
07:46you might have noticed something interesting
07:49a key in human form perhaps lounging about unattended
07:56if i did do you really think i would tell you
08:00why do you insist on fighting the inevitable
08:03no one can stand against her blindingly scrumptious luminescence
08:08glory her name is glory and she's your god you little scab not mine
08:15with all due respect and fear of sharp objects
08:19you exist sir
08:21only because of her divine greatness
08:25you mean her divine failure don't you
08:29i didn't ask for any of this
08:38i just want to be normal we play the hand we're dealt
08:43nothing's mine is it and it's life it's body it's all infected
08:48the only thing i've ever cared about she's taken away from me
08:52you know why i wanted to become a doctor
08:55flattering drawstring pants
08:58to be close to people
09:00to witness their lives and their deaths
09:04to be there alongside them a part of everyday humanity
09:08maybe it's the drugs
09:13drugs sir
09:15find the right combination keep her buried where she belongs
09:18impossible
09:20her magnificence can never be fully contained
09:24she is a perfect all-encompassing light
09:28when you should feel honored to be bathed in
09:31oh yeah i'm thrilled especially with the part where she gets her key back and i cease to exist
09:37true this oh so appealing form will of necessity be shrugged off
09:42not if i get the key first
09:44and if you did
09:46what then
09:48could you do it
09:50take a human life with your own hands
09:55oblivion is such a small inconvenience in the service of a deity accept your fate
10:04i mean you said it yourself
10:08this life was never really yours anyway was it
10:12it doesn't matter how i came by it

14:11i
14:13Shouldn't somebody be asking, are we there yet?
14:27Isn't that what small, irritating children do?
14:32That kind of only works if you know where you're going.
14:39Do we know where we're going yet?
14:41It would already be somewhere if Captain Slopeup would give up the wheel.
14:45Hey, Gramps, bloody step on it.
14:48Step on what?
14:50I've driven tricycles with more power.
14:57Is anybody else queasy?
15:00He doesn't travel well.
15:03He's like fine shrimp.
15:05I should have nicked that Porsche I had my eye on.
15:08There's just enough room for me, you and Big Sis.
15:11What?
15:15Would you give it a rest, or...
15:17Or what?
15:18You're going to toss your cookies on my shoes?
15:20Or you can be undead man walking.
15:23See how fast you can hitch a ride with a flaving.
15:26Sounds fine.
15:28Trip.
15:29That guy has blood sucking the last nerve right ahead of me.
15:39Well, Buffy has a point, and the confrontation Spike may prove...
15:43Useful.
15:48I don't know if Buffy's thinking too clear on that one.
15:52Or anything else right now.
15:55I've never seen her so...
15:57She's been through more than her fair share of lead.
16:02She just needs a chance to catch her breath, regroup.
16:07She'll be all right.
16:08Yeah.
16:10She'll...
16:10Yeah.
16:23Any luck?
16:23Well, if you define luck as the absence of success, plenty.
16:31There's a couple barrier spells, but they only work on fixed locusts.
16:37I haven't found anything that'll work, but we're still moving.
16:41It's so pretty.
16:42Can I have one?
16:45Okay.
16:45Um, anyone hungry?
16:49Oh, snacks!
16:51The secret to any successful migration.
16:58Who's up for some tasty fried meat products?
17:03Hey!
17:04Tara, no!
17:06What did I tell you?
17:10Shh.
17:11I'm sorry.
17:13She didn't mean to.
17:14She...
17:15She doesn't know what she's like.
17:19Oh, you know.
17:20No biggie.
17:22Look, their skin's already stopped smoking.
17:25You go ahead and play peek-a-boom with Mrs. Sunshine all you like.
17:30It keeps the right from getting boring.
17:33Oh, it's good.
17:36Oh, shh, baby.
17:38The light's still outside, okay?
17:42Oh, dark.
17:43Oh, dark.
17:44Oh, dark.
17:46Dark.
17:47Oh, dark.
17:50Soon.
17:51Soon.
17:55Soon.
17:56Soon.
17:58Soon.
18:02It's coming.
18:03The signs are in alignment.
18:05Soon victory will be in our grasp.
18:09All we need to do is seize the moment and squeeze until it bleeds.
18:14Hey.
18:28I think Vanya's gonna try to cook.
18:35Wanna come watch the tears and recriminations?
18:38Maybe later.
18:40Maybe later.
18:54Thanks.
18:55Thanks.
18:59For what?
19:00You know.
19:02Pretty much everything.
19:07Yeah.
19:09I'm doing a great job.
19:11You are.
19:12I'm the Slayer.
19:18The Chosen One.
19:20All mythic and defendery.
19:23Evil nasties are supposed to flee from me.
19:26Not the other way around.
19:29You're not fleeing.
19:32You're moving at a brisk pace.
19:35It's faintly referred to in some cultures as the big scaredy runaway.
19:44It's the most amazing thing anyone's ever done for me.
19:54It just keeps coming.
19:59Glory.
20:02Riley.
20:04Tara.
20:05I know.
20:16But there's a bright side.
20:20There is.
20:22At least things can't get any crazier.
20:26Right?
20:30You know this is your fault for saying that.
20:33I see them.
20:58I see them.
20:58It's me who?
21:04Arrows!
21:05Look!
21:05They're throwing arrows!
21:12John, get down!
21:13I'm at the table!
21:16Horses!
21:18Tara!
21:22Weapons?
21:23Hello?
21:24You're driving one?
21:26Don't hit the horses!
21:28No, we won't!
21:30Aim for the horses.
21:53Did we shake him?
21:58Stay low!
22:05Watch out here!
22:12Now might be a good time for something heroic.
22:19Xander!
22:20Patch!
22:21Catch!
22:25Uh!
22:29!
22:30Uh!
22:33Oh!
22:39Oh!
22:43Oh!
22:44Oh!
22:45Oh!
22:45Oh!
22:47Oh!
22:49I don't know.
23:19Keep the pressure on.
23:29Always do, sweet baby.
23:49I've got a piano, but hey.
23:52I don't know.
24:22I don't know.
24:52I don't know.
25:02Everyone all right?
25:03I don't know.
25:13I don't know.
25:23I don't know.
25:33I don't know.
25:43I don't know.
25:53I don't know.
25:55I don't know.
25:57I don't know.
26:05I don't know.
26:15I don't know.
26:17I don't know.
26:27I don't know.
26:29I don't know.
26:30I don't know.
26:31I don't know.
26:32I don't know.
26:33I don't know.
26:34I don't know.
26:35I don't know.
26:36I don't know.
26:37I don't know.
26:38I don't know.
26:39I don't know.
26:40I don't know.
26:42I don't know.
26:43I don't know.
26:44I think I don't know.
26:45I don't know.
26:46I don't know.
26:48I can't stay here.
26:49It's too close to the wreck.
26:51We're too easy to find.
26:53Murphy?
26:54Well, how is he?
26:57Will?
26:58I think I've slowed the bleeding, but...
27:02Okay.
27:04Okay, just give me a minute.
27:22We got company.
27:25And they brought a crusade.
27:28Yeah.
27:36Willow, I'm working on it.
27:42Go.
27:50Right, go, go.
27:51Come on, come on.
27:53Come on.
27:54Help me.
28:00Stop me.
28:00Let's go.
28:30The key.
28:46Enemies flying tall. Circling arms, raise the wall.
29:00They have the general. Clerics!
29:06Energy barrier. A most powerful one.
29:23Can it be breached?
29:24A witch's magic pales to the might of our god. The infidel's wall shall tumble before us.
29:33Well, how long will it hold? Half a day, maybe?
29:45Oh, cross.
29:50Or until Heckel and Jekkel punch a hole through it.
29:54So, what's the story with these role-playing rejects?
30:09Let's find out.
30:10You sure Scarface here, Knobla the English?
30:23He understands me.
30:26Don't you?
30:30You were warned we would return, Slayer.
30:33Took you long enough?
30:34What are you supposed to be? Some kind of chief?
30:42General.
30:44General?
30:46In charge of what? Getting captured?
30:51You do not frighten me, child.
30:53The instrument of chaos must be destroyed.
31:01Look at her that way again, and she will be the last thing you ever see.
31:08As I've been told, you protect the key of the beast.
31:17It's not that simple.
31:19The key has been transformed, given breath, life.
31:30Yet, this makes no difference.
31:33The key is the link.
31:35The link must be severed.
31:37Such is the will of God.
31:39She doesn't remember anything about being this key you're all looking for.
31:44The only thing that she remembers is growing up with a mother and a sister that love her.
31:52What kind of God would demand her life for something that she has no control over?
32:01We are not your enemy.
32:05Tell your men to stand down.
32:07The key is too dangerous to be allowed to exist, no matter what form it has been pressed into.
32:28I will not let anyone tell me.
32:32What happened?
32:38I don't know.
32:39She just went nuts.
32:43I'm tired.
32:44I'm tired.
32:47Tara.
32:48Tara.
32:53Tara.
32:56We have to do something.
32:59She can't just stay this way.
33:02Buffy.
33:03Time.
33:05Time.
33:06Time.
33:07Shh.
33:08Time.
33:09Time.
33:10Time.
33:10Time.
33:11Time.
33:12Time.
33:12Time.
33:13Time.
33:15Time.
33:15Time.
33:16Time.
33:16No.
33:17Time.
33:17Time for your meds.
33:18Just lie back and...
33:21Time.
33:22Time.
33:22Time.
33:24Doctor!
33:25Dr. McCartney!
33:26Time.
33:27Time.
33:30Time.
33:30Time.
33:32Time.
33:32Time.
33:32Time.

33:36Time.
33:38Time.
33:39Time.
33:40Time.
33:42Time.
33:42Time.
33:42Time.
33:43Please don't give up.
33:45Time.
33:46No.
33:47Shh.
33:48There's nothing to fear, my brother.
33:51The beast may have taken your mind, but I swear to you, she will never know the taste of your heart.
33:59me.
34:03Just boo me.
34:03All right.
34:05Things to hago.
34:07There is nothing to bear in.
34:09Cloris!
34:10I want the witch's barrier down.
34:13Now!
34:14There is nothing to bear in, but I can't get you and I swear to you, but it's death.
34:20I'm sorry.
34:24What for?
34:26We should have stayed.
34:29If we had, none of this would have happened.
34:31Doctor,
34:33what you did
34:36was necessary.
34:43What I've always admired.
34:46Our running away.
34:50Being able to place your heart
34:52above all else.
34:59I'm so proud of you.
35:03You've come so far.
35:08You're everything.
35:10I'm watching.
35:13Everything I could have hoped for.
35:20I'm so proud of you.
35:29Willow, open the door.
35:59Speak.
36:11One of my friends was hurt when you attacked us.
36:14And ten of my men are dead.
36:17Honorable men.
36:19Shall we balance the skill?
36:22Will you let someone come and help him or not?
36:26Give quarter to an agent of the beast.
36:29What madness would move me to such action?
36:33I'm done asking.
36:35Whoa! Well, hey.
36:36Uh, this is war, isn't it?
36:41And if there's one thing I've learned from Sergeant Rock is in war, there are rules.
36:48Or at least there should be, if you're as honorable as you think you are.
36:55Plus, we do have your general forehead guy.
36:59Discharge and bring life.
37:12Hand it in a Swiss knife.
37:14Look, the door to my crib's got this nasty squeak.
37:18Maybe you could, uh...
37:21Hey.
37:23Uh, it's Buffy.
37:26I need to ask you a really big favor.
37:28You, uh, forgot to mention the costume party outside.
37:57Sorry.
37:59I didn't know who else to call.
38:02No, it's okay.
38:04I mean, yeah, not how I pictured seeing you again, but, uh...
38:09I'll take what I can get.
38:10Thank you for coming.
38:19My pleasure.
38:20I think I got him stabilized, but there's a lot of damage.
38:42We need to get him out of here.
38:43Well, I think the guys with the pointy swords kind of have other ideas.
38:49Don't they always?
38:52Look, I know this must seem extra outer limits to you.
38:56This?
38:57No, I've seen things you wouldn't believe.
38:59You know, emergency room, full moon on a Saturday night.
39:05Look, if this gets too weird, just tell me.
39:08I'll understand.
39:10Don't worry about me.
39:12I won't leave until I've worn out my welcome.
39:14I won't leave until I've worn out my welcome.
39:44Thanks, sir.
39:53You know those things will kill you.
39:58Oh.
39:59Right.
40:04I mentioned today how much I don't like you.
40:09I'm going to let it slip, then.
40:12Once or twice.
40:14How are you feelers?
40:21Nothing compared to the little bits we're going to get chopped into when the Renaissance
40:25Fair kicks the door in.
40:28And here we bloody sit.
40:31It's not like you've got much of a choice.
40:33Make a break for it.
40:35Use General Armroll as a shield and get to the Doc's car.
40:39Great plan.
40:40And while all the hacking and slashing's going on, what are you going to be doing, huh?
40:44Doing migraines at them?
40:46Look, we stay here, we all die.
40:48At least this way, some of us might get a...
40:50No.
40:52We're all going to make it.
40:55I'm not losing anyone.
40:56Check the supplies.
41:01See if anyone's hungry.
41:15Dissension in the ranks.
41:17I'm seldom a harbinger of glad tidings.
41:26Shut up.
41:32Poor frightened girl.
41:35You've no idea what you've gotten yourself into.
41:38Why don't you tell me?
41:41Would it make a difference?
41:46What do you know of the beast?
41:49Strong.
41:50Fast.
41:52Hell god.
41:53From a dimension of unspeakable torment.
41:57A demon dimension.
41:58I know.
42:00She ruled with two other hell gods, right?
42:02Along with the beast, they were a triumvirate of suffering and despair, ruling with equal vengeance.
42:10But the beast's power grew beyond even what they could conceive.
42:15As did her lust for pain and misery.
42:19They looked upon her, what she had become, and trembled.
42:26A god afraid?
42:28Such was her power.
42:29They feared she would attempt to seize their dimension for herself.
42:36And decided to strike first.
42:39A great battle erupted.
42:41In the end, they stood victorious over the beast.
42:46Barely.
42:47She was cast out.
42:50Banished to this lower plane of existence.
42:54Forced to live and eventually die.
42:56Trapped within the body of a mortal.
43:01A newborn male.
43:02Created as her prison.
43:05That is the beast's only weakness.
43:09Kill the man.
43:11And the god dies.
43:14Unfortunately, the identity of the human vessel has never been discovered.
43:18I don't understand.
43:22Now, I've seen, Glory.
43:24Not a whole lot going on in the hairy chest department.
43:27You have seen a glimpse of the true beast.
43:30Her power was too great to be completely contained.
43:33She's found a way to escape her mortal prison.
43:36Brief periods before her energies are exhausted, she's forced back.
43:41And to her living cell of meat and bone.
43:45What about me?
43:48What about the key?
43:51Dawn, I want to know.
43:53The key is almost as old as the beast itself.
43:59Where it came from.
44:01How it was created.
44:03The deepest of mysteries.
44:04All that is certain is that its power is absolute.
44:11Countless generations of my people have sacrificed their lives in search of it.
44:16To destroy it before its wrath could be unleashed.
44:21But the monks found it first.
44:23Yes.
44:24And hid it with their magics.
44:27Why didn't they just destroy it?
44:29What if the key is as dangerous as you...
44:31Because they were fools.
44:34They thought they could harness its power for the forces of light.
44:37They failed.
44:38And paid with their blood.
44:41What do I do?
44:44What was I created for?
44:47You were created...
44:49To open the gates to separate dimensions.
44:53The beast will use your power...
44:56To return home and seize control of the hell she was banished from.
45:01That's it?
45:06That's Glory's master plan?
45:09To go home?
45:11You misunderstand.
45:14Once the key is activated...
45:17It won't just open the gates to the beast dimension.
45:19It's going to open all the gates.
45:22The walls separating realities will crumble.
45:26Dimensions will bleed into each other.
45:29Order will be overthrown and the universe will tumble into chaos.
45:34All dark.
45:37Forever.
45:41That is what you were created for.
45:44Don.
45:46Don.
45:46You think it's true?
46:01What he said?
46:02I don't know.
46:20Destroyer of the universe.
46:22I guess cutting school doesn't seem so bad now, huh?
46:30It's not you.
46:32You know that.
46:36But it's in me.
46:38Isn't it?
46:40It's inside me.
46:42What are we going to do?
46:57I won't let anything happen to you.
47:03I promise.
47:04You're going to eat something.
47:18You want me to try?
47:23I don't know.
47:24I ain't getting used to picking fruit out of my hair.
47:29You.
47:30You are not a part of this, are you?
47:39Just a friend of a family.
47:41Would you die for them?
47:46Because that is what your future holds if you align yourself with the Slayer and her misguided people.
47:52It's my life, and I'll do what I please with it.
47:58It's not just your life.
48:01Unimaginable legions will perish, including everyone here.
48:08You can stop this.
48:12You can save all their lives by ending one.
48:16The little girl.
48:17The key.
48:21Destroy it, and the will of the beast will be broken.
48:25She will fade.
48:27A distant memory.
48:30And all of this madness will end.
48:46Sorry.
48:47He is.
48:51Is he going to be okay?
48:53He was hurt pretty bad, Dawn.
48:59It's because of me.
49:03It's all my fault.
49:05No, it isn't.
49:08You don't know what's happening.
49:12I don't have to.
49:13I just know that sometimes terrible things happen to good people.
49:22It shouldn't, but it does.
49:25It's nobody's fault.
49:35It's just the way life is.
49:37It's just the way life is.
49:37Is that going to help?
49:50Ben?
49:56You have to let me out.
50:01Ben?
50:01You don't understand. I gotta get out. Open a door now.
50:05Well, what happened?
50:05I don't know. He just freaked out.
50:08Let me out!
50:09Okay, Will, open a door.
50:10No!
50:22Well, what do you know?
50:24A little bit and finally did something right.
50:26The beast.
50:29Hey, it's Gregor.
50:31No, it's not.
50:38No, it's not.
50:52Bumpy!
50:56No, it's not.
51:04John!
51:18Will, get it down. Now!
51:21Hear. Hear my plea. Circling arms, protecting me.
51:27We have to...
51:29We have to...
51:36We have to...
51:41We have to...
51:51The beast.
51:52The car.
51:59Get the key.
52:00We have to...
52:07We have to...
52:08We have to...
52:09We have to...
52:17We have to...
52:18We have to...
52:19We have to...
52:20We have to...
52:21We have to...
52:25Buffy, please!
52:26Buffy!
52:27Buffy!
52:57Grrr!
52:59Arrgh!
53:03Grrr!
53:05Arrgh!
53:07Sniper!
53:09No!
53:11Go!
53:13Go!
53:15Go!
53:17Grrr!
53:19Arrgh!
53:21Grrr!
53:23Grrr!
