Some supernatural force at Sunnydale High is forcing people to re-enact a deadly confrontation between a student and teacher from 1955. Giles is convinced this force is the spirit of dear departed Jenny Calendar. Buffy and the rest of the Scoobies aren’t convinced. Will they be able to put these troubled spirits to rest before any more lives are lost? Or will Angelus take his hands off Drusilla long enough to make good on his promise to get rid of the Slayer once and for all?

With Angelus encroaching more on Buffy, she decides she has to tell Joyce everything. Well, not everything. But Joyce finds out that Buffy had sex with a mysterious and now abusive older guy. That goes about as well as you expect. Meanwhile, Jenny thinks she might have a way to restore Angel’s soul—and regain the Scoobies’ good graces. But no one is prepared for what Angelus has in store for Buffy, and nothing will ever be the same again.

Cordelia dumps Xander to get back in with the popular crowd. Xander takes this about as well as you would expect—that is, extremely poorly. So poorly he has Amy cast a love spell that will leave Cordelia craving him for the rest of her days. Of course, no magic in Sunnydale works as intended, and Xander soon finds himself far more desirable than desired.

We all know adolescence brings changes. Body hair, a more acute sense of smell, attraction to the sexual heat of one’s fellow teens—wait, nope, that’s being a werewolf. And there’s one loose in Sunnydale, with predictably chaotic results. The Scoobies need to capture this hapless human before it can kill. But what will happen if the werewolf is someone close to home?

Don’t have sex, because your boyfriend WILL turn evil and rejoin his former gang of vampire delinquents bent on destruction.

The Judge is nearly at full strength, and then Spike and Drusilla will unleash him on the Sunnydale Mall. Will Cordelia and Willow stop fighting over Xander long enough to come up with a plan? Or is the mall doomed?

Buffy has no idea that her friends are planning a surprise party for her 17th birthday. Even Cordelia is in on the fun as chips-and-dip girl! Buffy is too busy obsessing over Angel, Willow might be moving things along with Oz, and Jenny is … not having a good time with her family. Don’t worry, though. Spike and Drusilla have a plan cooked up that involves body parts and a big blue man. What could possibly go wrong?

Don’t have sex, or you’ll have to take care of an egg that hatches into the offspring of a fleshy monster living beneath Sunnydale High! This is the lesson Buffy and the gang learn the hard way, with plenty of face punching and head trauma to go around. Oh, and also there are 2 Texan vampires in cowboy hats for some reason.
