I Only Have Eyes For You
This ghostly episode starts out at the Bronze where Buffy is approached by a
boy named Ben who's looking for a date for the Sadie Hawkins dance. Still
severly scared by her relationship with Angel, Buffy rejects him harshly
claiming she not going to be dating ever again. While Willow attempts to heal
Buffy's wounds, she finds it is no use and Buffy decides to leave and check in
with Giles. In the halls at school, Buffy runs into two students having a fight.
The guy pulls out a gun and points it at the girl. Buffy breaks it up in time
for the two to remember what happened, but not why and to find the gun missing.
The next day, Principal Snyder has a field day trying to blame Buffy for the
incident that happened that night. While waiting in his office, a yearbook from
1955 falls off the shelf. After Willow finishes teaching her class, Giles comes
in to check on how she is doing. She gives him a rose quartz that she found in
Ms. Calendar's desk. In class later that day, Buffy starts daydreaming about a
relationship a student had with his teacher. As she comes back to the present,
she finds that the teacher has written "Don't walk away from me Bitc#!" on the
chalk board. While Buffy tries to explain her concern for the weird activities,
Xander finds a monster arm coming out of his locker and grabbing him. Buffy
helps him break away but when they reopen the locker, there is no arm to be
seen.
Giles is intrigued by the case as usual and looks forward to looking into the
possibility of a ghost. Angel, Spike and Dru take up home in a mansion. Angel,
being his usual self, flaunts his flirting with Dru in Spike's face. While Giles
is studying in his office later that night, he hears an argument between a man
and a woman out in the halls. Thinking that he heard Jenny he goes to stop the
argument only to find he had arrived too late. The janitor who was arguing with
a teacher, had shot her and she fell over the balcony of the school. Giles was
then convinced that it was Jenny that was haunting the school. Buffy, Xander and
Willow couldn't believe how possitive he was that it was Jenny.
Buffy, Xander and Willow head off to the computer lab and talk. Willow finds
on her laptop information about the killing in 1955. They find that James killed
his teacher Grace after they had an affair and people began to talk about it.
She tried to break it off but he pulled out a gun in anger and shot her. Xander
suggests lunch and they head off to the cafeteria where they are joined by
Cordelia who is complaining about the Sadie Hawkins dance. A scream is hear and
they find that the food has all been turned to snakes. The room begins to empty
quickly and Cordelia is bitten on the face by a snake.
Ouside she recives medical attention while professionals gather all of the
snakes. Snyder talks to a man about the incident and reveals more of his
knowlege that there is a hellmouth beneath them.
At Buffy's house that night,
Willow devises a plan to contain the spirits. They head off to the school where
they prepare. Buffy continues to suffer from flashbacks of the night when the
two had the argument while Cordelia finds herself in the girls bathroom
examining her bitten face. Xander goes to the cafeteria while Willow walks the
halls. Giles startles her when she walks by the library. Giles is trying to
summon Jenny's spirit and asks Willow to leave.
Buffy hears music coming from the Music Room and goes to see Grace and James
dancing there. James face suddenly changes to a gory mess, startling Buffy.
Cordelia looks in the mirror to find her face has turned a gory red color. On
the stairwell, Willow begins to sink into the floor. She cries out for Giles and
he rushes to save her. Willow finally convinces him that the spirit is not
Jenny. The clock strikes, everyone lights their candle and starts chanting. The
candles blow out and a swarm of wasps enter the school. Everyone rushes out to
find the school surrounded by wasps.
In the Garden, Dru gets a vision. Angel watches her dance about as she tells
the story of Buffy meeting with death. He again flaunt his romantic relationship
with Dru in Spike's face. As Angel hold Dru tight against him, tears just about
pool up in Spike's eyes. Later at Buffy's house, everyone is recoperating while
Buffy continues to show her anger towards James. Giles tries to help, but
Buffy's own experiences are making it difficult for her to forgive anyone. She
rushes off to the kitchen where she finds a sign for the Sadie Hawkins dance in
her pocket. She heads to the school where the wasps part for her to enter. Back
at the Summer's house, Willow finds the ad and everyone rushes after Buffy. They
have no way of getting inside so they hope that there is no one who can help her
reinact the events.
Angel appears in the halls as Buffy, now possessed by James talks to him as
if he were Grace. Angel finds her behavior freaky until the spirit is able to
get a hold of his body. She takes on the role of James and he takes on the role
of Grace. They argue again and Buffy pulls out a gun and shoots Angel. He falls
off the balcony dead. James in Buffy's body rushes off to the music room where
he plans to kill himself. Angel, unable to be killed by bullets wakes up and
makes his way to the music room just in time to stop Buffy from pulling the
trigger. They exchange appologies and kiss. The spirits, now able to pass on
leave their bodies. Buffy and Angel break away from the kiss and Angel realizes
what he has been doing. Throwing Buffy aside he rushes off. Buffy copes with
what happened while Xander, Willow and Cordelia check the school for any remains
of snakes or wasps.
At the garden Angel scrubs furiously at his body, knowing how close he had been with Buffy. Dru and Angel go off to feed and Spike finally gets out of his chair and kicks it aside.
