Willow is still trailing the cross-eyed vamp through the cemetery, babbling about how scary it is. The vamp teasingly asks if she's ever been in a mausoleum, and when she declines, he grabs her and shoves her inside. As Willow panics, the vamp teases her a little, and when she tries to run, she encounters Darla in the doorway. Darla sneers at the vamp's choice, saying that Willow is "hardly a mouthful" and then calls in her own prey, Jesse, who holding his neck and wobbling. That boy's so skinny, I doubt he'd be much more of a meal than Willow. Jesse falls into Willow's arms, and Willow demands that Darla and the cross-eyed vamp let them go. Darla morphs into her game face, and at that moment Buffy and Xander enter the mausoleum. Finally, Buffy! Buffy throws around a few wisecracks about the interior design of the crypt and tells the cross-eyed vamp to "live in the now," a favorite quote of our very own Sports Night recapper, Daniel. The vampires don't know Buffy's identity, and the cross-eyed one moves in to attack her.
She quickly stakes him, which seems to surprise Darla. Buffy tells Xander to get the others to safety, and then Buffy and Darla begin to fight. Outside, Xander, Willow, and Jesse flee though the cemetery. Buffy cracks wise to Darla about how she just wanted a quiet life, and when she's about to tell Darla she's the Slayer, Luke comes from behind and grabs her by the neck. He throws Buffy across the crypt and then bitches Darla out for not bringing the Master his snackies. Luke tells Darla to leave and seems pretty assured that he can take care of Buffy himself.
Willow, Xander, and Jesse are still fleeing through the (apparently very large) cemetery when they encounter a whole gang of vampires. Back at the crypt, Buffy almost stakes Luke, but he again throws her across the room. As Buffy struggles to get up, Luke obnoxiously proclaims about the Harvest, although his delivery is somewhat hampered by his plastic teeth. Quick cuts show us Giles researching and Willow, Xander, and Jesse surrounded by vamps, including Darla, as Luke explains how the Harvest will involve the blood of humans flowing like wine and the Master walking the Earth once more. Luke flings Buffy ass over teacup into the stone coffin, where she lies panting. The room is silent, and just when Buffy has gotten up the courage to peek out, Luke leaps in with her. He grabs her and prepares to bite her neck. To be continued .
