"Giles,it isn't him." Buffy was sat down on Giles' sofa and he looked up from his book. "Are you sure? I, mean, what's to say he's lying, making excuses-" Buffy shook her head. "No. He was telling the truth. I could tell," she said, getting up. "I'm going back to the magic box." Buffy started striding toward the door. "But Buffy-" The door closed behind her. He sighed and took off his glasses to clean them.
Dawn looked bored. She opened her diary on top of the book she was 'reading' and pretended to take notes. ' new case. Buffy is talking to Giles- something attacked him and they think it's Spike. No one has asked my opinion though. No one ever asks little Dawnie's opinion.The others are researching and I'm meant to be too. Buffy just came in- I'd better see what she wants.' Dawn closed her diary and went back to pretending to read. "Well, one thing's for sure- it's not him." Buffy walked to the research table were the others were. Anya looked up at her. "Okay. More ideas people, we need more ideas. Again, I suggest Brian-" Xander cut her off. "Look Buffy, whatever he says, he's probably lying. Evil, remember?" Buffy shook her head. "I've already said this all to Giles and I don't want to have to repeat it: it's definitely not him!!!"
Anya looked thoughtful again and said: "What if it's a monster that wants us to think it's Spike? What if it shape-shifts?" Buffy looked at her and thought about it for a second. "Research that. This is all just too much for my head. I'm going for a walk."
