Kendra azt állítja magáról, hogy ő a vámpírvadász, amit Buffy nem hisz el, mert ő úgy tudja, hogy csak egy létezik. A harc így nem kerülhető el, ám közben kiderül, hogy Kendra már találkozott Angellel, és olyan helyre vitte, ahol a vámpír biztos halálra van ítélve. Így elrohannak hozzá, ám későn érkeznek. És nem azért, mert már elérte a napfény, hanem mert a bárpultos odaadta Spike-éknak, akik letudták fordítani a könyvet. Abban pedig az állt, hogy Drusilla gyógyulásához arra a vámpírra van szükség, akik megharapta őt, tehát a ’sire’-ra. Közben Buffyban felmerülnek azon gondolatok, hogy mi lenne, ha Kendra helyettesíteni őt, hiszen akkor ő normális életet élhetne. Cordeliák pedig a pincében zárkózva várnak a csodára, hátha elmegy a gilisztaember, vagy megérkezik Buffy. Ám nem bírják a tétlenséget, így elhatározzák, hogy maguk törnek ki a rejtekhelyről. Később tejjel leöntve megölik a lényt. Drusilla pedig kínozza Angelt, ám túl sokáig nem jut vele, mert Spike figyelmezteti őt arra, hogy ha Angel meghal, ő sem gyógyulhat meg. Buffyék pedig készülődnek az összecsapásra, elindulnak megmenteni Angelt.
Buffy freaks as Kendra identifies herself as the Slayer. They realize that Kendra was summoned as the new Slayer when Buffy died -- temporarily drowned, that is. Kendra, too, knows that evil is coming. Near death at daybreak, Angel is dragged from the cell by the guy from the bar -- he dumps him in a sewer and turns him over to Spike and Drusilla. When the new moon comes that night, they will perform the ritual they figured out from the transcriber and Angel will die. Giles seems to be bonding with Kendra, making Buffy feel left out. Now that there's a spare slayer, Buffy considers giving up the business. At Buffy's house, Cordelia chats merrily with the cosmetics guy until she realizes he has bugs crawling all over him. He turns into a huge pile of them, sending Cordelia and Xander into hiding, and they fight over what to do. In the heat of the argument, they kiss passionately (?!). They manage to escape and speed off in Cordy's car. At Sunnydale High, Willow chats with Oz, her male computer nerd counterpart, about their similar Career Fair paths. A police woman supervising the fair suddenly opens fire on Buffy and accidentally shoots Oz, but Kendra comes to Buffy's rescue. When the gang assembles in the library, Giles announces he's figured out the ritual: Angel will die that night. Buffy and Kendra go to the bar to try to get help finding Angel, but Kendra bails, convinced that Angel is evil. Meanwhile, Drusilla is having a field day with her ex-tormentor Angel, dousing him with holy water and watching him writhe in pain. The Bar Guy leads Buffy to the church, which is filled with evil Tenaka bounty hunters. Buffy watches in horror as Drusilla holds onto the tied-up Angel, sapping his power. As the policewoman assassin goes to shoot Buffy, Kendra enters to save her. Willow, Xander, Cordelia and Giles burst in and help, too. Xander and Cordelia wait for Bug Guy to, well, bug out, then they pour glue all over him and stomp on the helpless creatures. Buffy releases Angel, but Spike sets the room on fire and grabs Dru. Before they're able to escape, Buffy hurls something at them and sends them crashing into a huge organ, squooshing them both. The charm-free Kendra leaves town, and Buffy is the Number One Slayer once again. But all is not well. Emerging from the rubble in the church is Drusilla, now fully vamped out and strong enough to carry the injured Spike to safety. She's back, and she's bad.
