Shownotes

It’s late at night in the Sunnydale library, and Buffy is driving Giles crazy with her workout beats. Outside, a man is frantically looking for Giles, but as he is banging on the library door, a zombie woman strangles him to death before falling to the ground and melting. 

Police question Giles, as the dead man was carrying a paper with Giles’ name and address. When Giles sees the body, he recognizes the man as a friend from his past, twenty years ago.

Buffy becomes worried about Giles when he begins acting strangely, missing his Watcher duties, staying in and drinking alone. She finds Ethan Rayne, who owned the Halloween shop, skulking in the library. Ethan is looking for Giles and references Eyghon - a demon that Giles, Ethan, and other friends experimented with when they were rebellious kids. Eyghon has returned to kill all of Giles’ old gang, and only he and Ethan remain. 

After a scuffle in the library, unbeknownst to the Scoobies, Eyghon jumps into Jenny’s body. The possession of Jenny grows stronger, but Willow’s plan saves her. They trick Eyghon into jumping into Angel, who fights him off with his inner demon. Ethan has run off, and although everyone is technically safe, Jenny is shaken and seems to have lost trust in Giles.
