Wait. Stop. Think!




'cuz Opportunity comes 
once in a Lifetime,
You'd better --

Loose y'self in The Music,
The Moment,
You WANT it,
Better never let it go (go)!



“....hmm.

‘spose My Illusions don’t WORK on Artificial Intelligence.

Stands to REASON when you THINK about it.

Oh, well —

TELEKINESIS it is.” 

When Buffy hears the door close she pushes the lid back open and climbs out, only to be startled by Faith's hand on her shoulder. 

Buffy, The Vampire Slayer :
Faith! 

Faith, The Vampire Slayer
(baffled and vaguely disgusted)
What are you doing, 
hiding in there? 

Buffy, The Vampire Slayer :
Looking for the amulet. 
Wasn't counting on the Special Guest Stars. 
Six against one. 
(gestures at the coffin
Hence the hiding

Faith, The Vampire Slayer : 
Well, it's six against two now, 
so come on. 

She rushes out of the crypt. 
Buffy climbs out of the coffin and follows her out. 

Cut outside. 
They come out in time to see the last two Eliminati jump down through a manhole into the sewers below. 

Faith makes tracks for it. 

Buffy
Wait. Stop. Think! 

Faith
(stops, defiantly) 
No, no, no

(starts again) 

Buffy
(chases her) 
It's a manhole. 
Tight space, no escape, six against two, 
not unlike three against one. 

Faith: 
And there might be more, (grabs Buffy's arm) 
so come on. 

(lets go

Buffy: 
You're just gonna go down there. 
That's your plan. 

Faith: 
Who said I had a plan
I don't know how many's down there, 
but I wanna find out. 

And I'll know when I land

And if you don't come in after me, 
(shrugs and smiles) 
I might die

Without any further hesitation 
she jumps in. 

Buffy can't believe it, 
but realizes she can't let her do it alone, 
and jumps in after her.
