Hoo, knights! At night! In the forest. A bunch of the Knights of Borezantium are standing around a fire, toasting marshmallows on their long, manly swords. Hee, not really. Instead, they're chanting, "The Key is the link. The link must be severed. Such is the will of god." Again, I'm unsure about the capitalization for "god" -- but wait, this Key is a key, it's a portal, and now it's a link? I think Dawn really is the cosmic VCR that JHeaton suggested. As the Knights enjoy their little Boy-Scout outing, they're set upon by a crowd of Glory's scrofulous minions. They fight. The Knights win, and just as their leader ("Orlando," or so sayeth the closed captioning) is about to off Jinx, Glory happens upon the scene. Guess she was keeping her superior strength in reserve 'cause she didn't want to mess up her manicure or her strappy shoes. Glory makes short work of the Knights and leaves only Orlando alive. I'm not sure, but I don't think Orlando is the Knight who looked cuter lying down from last week. I could be wrong, though.
After the credits and a really pretentious, off-putting black-and-white ad for Visa and the Tony awards, we're outside Der Zauber Kasten during the day. Willow and Tara are carefully spilling colored sand on the ground, and poor Tara is dressed in a skirt made out of an entire beige bed-sheet. Dawn twinkles up, all dressed in pastels, which makes an interesting (or noxious, you be the judge) contrast to the earth tones on Tara and the bright solids Willow is wearing. Dawn asks what's up, and Willow explains that she and Tara are doing a spell that will warn the gang if a hellgod approaches the store; they've already done a similar spell around the Summers home. Tara stutteringly adds that the spell will help hide the Key. Dawn wants to help, but the witches get all weird and reject her offer. Feeling left out, Dawn huffs into the store. Damn, I don't care how old she is, nobody should be wearing skin-tight pink jeans. I'm just sayin'. The Paul Frank monkey backpack is cute, though. The witches reflect on what they've learned about Dawn and finish their protection spell.
