Can We Rest Now, Buffy? Can We Rest?

Shiv insists she isn't Bridget as she tries to break free from Macawi's grasp. She manages to get away, but when she gets to the elevator, she sees the call button has been pulled off the wall. The stairway must be back near where Macawi is, because Shiv runs out onto the balcony. Meanwhile, Bridget enters the building. She's on the phone with Solomon, explaining that she just wants to see Juliet, when she finds the doorman, dead as a... doornail. (Sorry.) Bridget tells Solomon to call 9-1-1. "Bodaway's here." She hangs up and runs to the elevator. When pressing the call button does nothing, Bridget runs up the stairs. I've seen people mocking her for running toward Bodaway when she's been running from him since September, but Bridget thinks Andrew and Juliet are in that apartment. She does love them. She can't leave them to face her worst nightmare alone.

Macawi pulls out his big knife as he threatens Shiv-as-Bridget. He finally finds her. She does her best to fight him off. They go crashing through the glass doors and onto the parlor floor. In a generous bit of fan service, Siobhan picks up a piece of broken wood and stakes Macawi. Unfortunately, he doesn't go poof.

Buffy: I missed the heart, once.

I am not your action recapper, suffice it to say there's more struggling and chasing. It's hilarious that the supposed badass to end all badasses is having such a hard time killing Shiv-as-Bridget. They make it out to the foyer. Macawi pins Shiv against her ginormous photo. He then lunges for her with the knife. Shiv ducks. The blade slashes through the monument to Shiv's vanity. Shiv runs off. Macawi follows after her. Bridget appears. She's got Chekhov's gun at the ready and orders Macawi to stop, then calls out for Juliet, because she just missed seeing the sister who shares her same Face by one second. Macawi is all confused. Bridget orders him to drop the knife. He fakes like he's going to and then he charges toward Bridget. She shoots him in the chest. Macawi falls to the ground. Bridget stands there with her mouth hanging open for a few seconds and then calls out for Andrew. She starts walking closer to Macawi's body. I yell at her to shoot him again, or he's going to come to and grab her by the ankle. She doesn't listen. Macawi comes to and grabs Bridget by the ankle. He pulls her to the floor, climbs on top of her and starts choking her. Bridget bites at his hand.
