Having split from the group, Buffy goes to look for Riley. Riley was led to Adam because Adam activated a behavior modification chip in Riley’s chest that places him under Adam’s control. Adam takes Riley to a secret lab in the Initiative where he sees that Drs. Walsh and Angleman are zombies serving as lab assistants to Adam who has turned Forrest into a demon/human hybrid just like himself. Meanwhile, Buffy realizes it was Spike who pitted them against one another to distract them from focusing on Adam. They make up and plan to raid the Initiative.
Ethan Rayne is back in town and we all know what that means – trouble. Giles feels out of the loop as he learns that Buffy is dating Riley, that she’s enamored with Prof. Walsh, and that Riley is a commando. Giles goes to see Professor Walsh and is further insulted when Walsh tells him that Buffy lacks a good father figure. Ethan Rayne turns up and he and Giles spend the night drinking for old times sake.
The entire town of Sunnydale falls under the spell of a group of fairy tale monsters called the Gentlemen. They steal everyone’s voices, then set out to cut out seven hearts as a part of a ritual. No longer able to verbalize, the gang uses interesting methods to get to the bottom of the case. Even The Initiative is scrambling to try and contain the situation but they have no clue what is happening.
Riley’s interest in Buffy has developed into a full on crush even though he denies it to his two close buddies who both see that he likes her. While he tries to sort all that out, Spike, who was captured last week by the commandos, is being held prisoner in a hi-tech facility underneath the University. He’s told by another vampire that they will attempt to drug him with tainted blood once they’ve starved him to near insanity. As it turns out, Riley is an agent of this military-like demon hunting crusade called the Initiative.
