IVY

Previously on Buffy, the vampire Slayer

Conversations with dead people:
JOYCE: When things get bad, she won’t choose you, she’ll be against you.

Touched:
Faith turns around in Buffy’s room to see the Mayor standing there.

And on ‘Dawn of Faith’

Tuckers Brother:
GIRL: She’s like poison

Ivy begins to kiss Connor passionately.

FADE TO BLACK

INT – GRAVEYARD – NIGHT

Connor is still under Ivy as she straddles and kisses him, his eyes still wide in shock as he pushes her off.

CONNOR
No, I can’t…I…I won’t do that

IVY
Don’t deny what you feel

CONNOR
I don’t feel anything – I don’t even know you

IVY
Are you sure about that? Look into my eyes and tell me you don’t see everything you need

Ivy holds Connor still as he gazes down into her eyes

CONNOR
I…

IVY
Shh…
(smiling)
We don’t need words

CONNOR
But…

Ivy places her finger on his lips

IVY
No words, you’re with me now

CONNOR
You’re not…

IVY
Niether are you…

CONNOR
(breathy)
I’m surprised you could tell who I am.

IVY
(more breathy)
I know that you’re apart of me

CONNOR
I can’t…

We remain on Connor’s face as it is heavily implied by his expression that Ivy’s hands are in new places.

CONNOR
Stop

IVY
You don’t sound as though you mean that

CONNOR
Then let me inside

Connor lifts Ivy so that she is straddling his hips as they fall back down to the floor

FADE TO BLACK.

INT – FAITHS APARTMENT – 11PM

Dawn is sat on the edge of the chair, arms folded as Connor walks in shiftily

DAWN
Where’ve you been?

CONNOR
Patrolling

DAWN
You’re okay? You look…worn down

CONNOR
Just need a shower is all

DAWN
Okay

INT – BATHROOM

Connor takes a moment to look at his face in the mirror before undressing and climbing into the shower.

As the water pours over him.

***FLASH***
Connor kissing Ivy on the floor, his hands sliding up her top

Connor roughly rinses himself with the water

***FLASH***
Ivy pulls Connors top off as he unzips his trousers

Connor is now harshly pulling his hands through his hair

***FLASH***
Connor smiles and pants as he lays down next to Maria

Connor begins to punch himself hard, before smacking his fist into the wall – cutting his knuckles deeply.

(O.S) DAWN
Are you okay?

CONNOR
I’m fine, just dropped something

(O.S) DAWN
Okay, listen I’m going to go see if Andrew good rid of his brother okay, back in an hour

CONNOR
Fine!

Connor looks down at his bleeding hand as he wraps a towel around him (we see what he doesn’t – a green tinted light shimmers up through the blood in his veins)

MIX TO SUNRISE

EXT – BOSTON COLLEGE COURTYARD – MORNING

Dawn and Andrew are walking along the path way past the courtyard as they literally crash into a young woman – Ivy.

DAWN
Sorry

Dawn helps her gather up her books

DAWN
I…are you new?

IVY
First day

DAWN
I was the late started last year, are you a freshman?

IVY
Junior

DAWN
Cool, I’m Dawn Summers, this is Andrew

ANDREW
Hey

Ivy completely ignores Andrew

IVY
Well, it was nice meeting you Dawn – I guess we’ll hang out sometime or something

DAWN
Um, okay – bye

As Ivy walks away, Dawn looks on with a baffled look across her face

ANDREW
Seen a ghost?

DAWN
Need to

ANDREW
Huh?

DAWN
Have we met her before?

ANDREW
I don’t think so, she just has “local” face

DAWN
(unsure)
Probably

CUT TO.

INT – COLLEGE HALL

Andrew and Dawn continue to walk through the corridor, Andrew completely rambling as Dawn looks to the floor.

ANDREW
He was totally pissed that I know Patrick Stewart, or Pat as he likes to be called or maybe he doesn’t I don’t know – strange. So, you think this weekend will bring anything of interest?
(pause)
Hello?
(longer pause)
Earth to Dawn, come in Dawn!

DAWN
What? Sorry

ANDREW
What’s the matter?

DAWN
Nothing, I just…it’s nothing

They both sit on an indoor bench where Andrew looks up through the window and spots Ivy running her hand softly down Connor’s arm

ANDREW
Um, hey I feel like food – let’s go eat

DAWN
Chocolate – sticky – heart attack goodness sounds nice right now

ANDREW
Let’s go clog our arteries with junk

Dawn stands to walk away with Andrew, who looks back over his shoulder at Connor

CUT TO.

EXT – COLLEGE

CONNOR
Stop it! I’m not going to do this again

IVY
You know you want it

CONNOR
You can’t always have what you want

IVY
You’re sure about that?

CONNOR
I’m making reference to you. you can’t always have what you want

IVY
It’s because of her isn’t it?

CONNOR
Who?

IVY
Dawn

CONNOR
You know Dawn?

IVY
We’re gonna be the best of friends

CONNOR
Leave her out of this

IVY
She’s in this, believe me

CUT TO.

INT – BOSTON COLLEGE CAFETERIA
Dawn is picking at her food rather absent mindedly as Andrew tucks in with deep enthusiasm.

ANDREW
Dawn it’s already dead

DAWN
Sorry

ANDREW
Hey, um, not to deflect from your misery and subtle yet obvious brain storming but what’s everyone looking at?

DAWN
Demon?

ANDREW
I don’t think so, they seem kinda overly happy. Oh, a happy demon

DAWN
A happy demon?

ANDREW
It could happen

DAWN
Actually
(observing room)
What are they looking at?

The crowd slowly parts as Thalia creeps out from the centre of them, her hair curled tight, her cleavage pushed high and her skirt barely visibila

THALIA
Later boys

Thalia struts off, wiggling her back end as she does.

DAWN
What the hell was that?

THALIA
Just a little welcoming committee

DAWN
Welcome to what?

THALIA
Welcome back

ANDREW
You’re back?

THALIA
Back and bad sweety

DAWN
Oh my god

THALIA
I know! It’s cool, I’m cool and I’m gonna rule this school

ANDREW
Cool

DAWN
You’re insane

THALIA
I prefer special

ANDREW
So what brings you back here?

THALIA
I got inspired, I had an epiphany and a visit from an angel

DAWN
Got bored?

THALIA
Completely! I alphabetised my underwear by designed and ironed Connor’s socks!

DAWN
It’s sad, but true but I thank you for cleaning them

THALIA
Your thanks are accepted – oh and my god

ANDREW
What?

THALIA
New girl – dressed exactly like me, we’re talking to the thread minus the colour

DAWN
Was it a mirror

THALIA
Ignoring
(beat)
Seriously she was pacing down the hall like a friggin’ catwalk – crashes into me and acts all “Oh my bad”

DAWN
That’s called an apology, kind of

THALIA
Apology my foot!

ANDREW
She must be stopped

THALIA
If you’re mocking, lick floor
(pause)
If not
(chirpy)
Let’s shop after college and can I say what the hell is everyone looking at?
(turns to the guys)
I’m over here!

The crowd parts as Thalia steps away from the table and in line with the door way, against which, Ivy is stood.

Thalia’s eyes narrow (close up) as do Ivy’s

DAWN
Uh Oh

ANDREW
Holy cow bells vamp girl!

DAWN
(moving Thalia away)
Don’t go there

THALIA
You know her?

DAWN
Kinda – she’s running for Student spokesperson. She transferred last week from some place with some name that was weird – anyway, we’re talking Autumn Goddess, Snow Queen, Summer Sweetheart, Prom Queen, Cheerleading Captain, all of it

THALIA
She’s missing one thing

ANDREW
Her own doll?
(off Dawn’s look)
Really?

DAWN
Puppet made by a freshman at her former highschool

ANDREW
So, what’s this thing she hasn’t got?

THALIA
A body like this, and powers like mine

Strong silence follows the confident statement

THALIA
Okay that’s two things

END OF PART ONE

INT – BOSTON COLLEGE the following day

Thalia skips proudly along the corridor, closely followed by Andrew who is nervously holding a large bundle of promotional posters

IVY (O.S)
Hey!

THALIA
Look what the cat dragged in
(smiles)
A dog!

IVY
I don’t even know you, so whatever your problem with me is…get the hell over it cause I’m gonna kick your low down, oversized, orange peel ass from here to wherever your hair was imported from

THALIA
No you didn’t!

IVY
Yes I did

THALIA
You get five seconds head start before I completely kill every single cell that makes your nasty ass body

IVY
Ooh, I’m shaking

ANDREW
Um, Tee, I think I hear your cell phone ringing in the other room – at home, where Dawn is or something

THALIA
You’re right, I’m gonna be the bigger woman here

IVY
Like that’s hard

THALIA
You are cruisin’ lady

IVY
In my beamer, after college, with a guy – actually

THALIA
Oh, in a car with a guy…that your life motto?

IVY
See in you in hell freak

THALIA
Not if I see you first bitch!

Ivy slides away confidently as every single guy checks her out as she passes

ANDREW
Not if you see her first?

THALIA
I know, I totally came second in that fight

CUT TO.

INT – FAITHS’ APARTMENT

Dawn is packing up her bag for college as Connor enters in the same clothes from the previous night

DAWN
Long patrol?

CONNOR
Hot and heavy

DAWN
Vamps?

CONNOR
More intense

DAWN
Looks like it, what did you do to your hand?

Dawn indicates the bandage wrapped around his arm

***FLASH***
Connor punching the wall in the shower

CONNOR
Nothing just hit a tombstone is all

DAWN
Are you okay?

CONNOR
I’m fine, don’t make big deals

DAWN
Connor, what’s wrong?

CONNOR
Dawn, I said I’m fine okay so can we just leave it

Dawn looks at him completely lost for a moment before putting her stubborn face on

DAWN
Fine. I have to get to college – I might be home late, I might be … later

She gives him one last stare before storming out of the door

Connor remains on the spot as he slides his hand into his pocket and pulls out a red hair bow.

***FLASH***
Ivy stands seductively infront of Connor as she pulls a ribbon from her hair.

Connor is stood smelling the ribbon in the apartment as Faith enters

FAITH
Sup Junior?

CONNOR
Will everyone quit asking I’m fine!

FAITH
Hey don’t jump my bones pee wee I’m just checkin’ in

CONNOR
I thought you were away anway?

FAITH
I was, or I am – I’m undecided

CONNOR
What?

FAITH
I’ve been having reflection time or whatever some kind of hypnotic new age hippie crap and I’ve been using “away” as a polite “leave me the hell alone”

CONNOR
So why are you back?

FAITH
Alone is boring, ‘sides – can’t be here buggin’ you and stompin’ little bitches that hurt my sister if I’m away

CONNOR
(shocked and nervous)
What?

FAITH
The freaks show at the mall a few days back

CONNOR
Right – I’m gonna take a shower

FAITH
Don’t use all the hot water, ain’t no good to me if it’s not hot enough to sweat the dirt out

CUT TO.

INT – BOSTON PRISON

RYAN
Take a breath!

THALIA
I’m sorry but I hate that girl she’s evil
(beat)
Yeah, that’s what she is she’s evil!

RYAN
You’ve known her for like two days

THALIA
So? She’s pissing all over my readily marked territory

RYAN
Tell me that’s a metaphor

THALIA
Don’t break a sweat, it’s not literal

RYAN
So other than “pissing” on your fire, what exactly did she do?

THALIA
Nothing

RYAN
Nothing?

THALIA
Not nothing, something

RYAN
What?

THALIA
I don’t know

RYAN
She did something but you don’t know what it was?

THALIA
See you get it!

RYAN
Not really

THALIA
It’s like…I just can’t put my finger on it, there’s something just gross about her

CUT TO.

INT – BOSTON COLLEGE

Dawn is rushing down the corridor to her locker as she rolls her eyes at various drawn on body hair posters advertising the girls campaigns.

DAWN
(to herself)
Come on, come on

GIRL (O.S)
You done it yet?

DAWN
Scare me much?

GIRL
Sorry

It’s the girl from the last episode, she’s back and she’s looking a little low

DAWN
I…I…haven’t had the time I don’t have the time

GIRL
Oh, it’s okay you’ll find the time

DAWN
What?

GIRL
I don’t exactly know why, but I chose you, I felt drawn to you and sod’s law says that until you do as I’ve chosen you to do, which is solve my death, I’m gonna bug you a whole lot more.

Dawn jumps as she spots another person walking towards her, Ivy, the girls tries to speak to Dawn but can not be heard.

IVY
Who were you talking to?

DAWN
Oh, just…myself, crazy old Dawn

IVY
Right
(looks around)
So, Dawn – I think we’ve got off a bad foot, what with your friend being anti-me and all

DAWN
Sorry about her, she gets a little over excited sometimes

IVY
So I’ve seen – Just earlier, I offered to buy her lunch, tried to apologise for whatever I may have done but she threw it in my face, almost literally

DAWN
You’re kidding?

IVY
I wish I could say I was, but, being a daughter of god – I was raised never to tell a lie

DAWN
I’ll have a word with her

IVY
Oh no, I don’t want the two of you falling out over me

DAWN
I’ll handle what I say

IVY
Well if you insist and hey Dawn – let’s hang out sometime

DAWN
Um, sure okay – hey how about tonight? Thalia will be pat…petitioning against you most likely, Andrew’s new X Files DVD arrived this morning so he’ll be entertaining himself…I’m free

IVY
You don’t have a boyfriend

DAWN
At the moment? He seems a little vacant

IVY
That’s a shame, well, I’ll tell you what – come over to mine around eight
(passes her a card)
Here’s my address, I’ll get rid of my beau and we’ll make it a girls night

DAWN
Sure, that sounds nice

IVY
Great! See you then

DAWN
Bye

CUT TO.

INT – BOSTON PRISON

THALIA
Evil!
(pause)
So any further asshole action in here?

RYAN
Um…

THALIA
Oh, no, not…I mean, people being – not you touching

RYAN
I got that

THALIA
Good

RYAN
It’s not been so bad – I’m more ignored now rather than targeted. But there is some news that’s of the good side

THALIA
Spill

RYAN
Probably not a great word – it’s been a while since I did

THALIA
Huh? Oh! Oh, right sure, no spill – talk

RYAN
Wait, before I tell you the news – we need to talk about us

THALIA
Us?

RYAN
I see, never mind

THALIA
No! No, I mean – you think there’s an us?

RYAN
I don’t know, do you?

THALIA
I can’t be sure, not with all of this

RYAN
All of what?

THALIA
This…you, you’re here because you were in love with her

RYAN
Key word

THALIA
Love?

RYAN
Were

INT – FAITHS APARTMENT

Faith is sat completely alone, not a sound – no stereo, no TV, just silence

FAITH
Jones?!?!
(beat)
I worked on ‘Charmed’

FAITH
I am SO bored!

CUT TO.

INT – BOSTON PRISON

THALIA
Okay, um, I don’t know what to say

RYAN
What you feel

THALIA
I feel kinda sick

RYAN
Sick?

THALIA
Good sick, like nerves

RYAN
Butterflies?

THALIA
Right, I…I mean, how could this work? You’re in here and…

RYAN
That’s the news

THALIA
You’re gonna corrupt and teleport out of here?

RYAN
Two weeks

THALIA
In two weeks?

RYAN
Trial – there’s new evidence, since the incidence with the telekinesis and throwing people, my solicitor forwarded me to a new lawyer

THALIA
Someone on drugs?

RYAN
He’s called Mr. Price – he’s from England and he apparently deals with “supernatural” cases. He believes me when I talk about demons – he has ways to make the evidence appear…less enchanting.

THALIA
So…you’ll be…you’ll be free

RYAN
It’s seventy thirty according to Mr. Price

THALIA
And we can be…

RYAN
That’s up to you

Thalia can barely move as single tear rolls down her face, her hand pressed weakly against the glass as Ryan’s hand touches from the other side.

CUT TO.

INT – FAITHS APARTMENT - NIGHT

Thalia is sat in the corner, rolled up in a ball, sucking her thumb and hugging her blanket

DAWN
She looks to fetal

ANDREW
Should we poke her with sticks?

FAITH
Leave her alone, she’s sinkin’

DAWN
Sinking?

FAITH
Like, deep into thought

DAWN
Oh, I have to get ready anyway so, Tee, when you’re un-sinking, you can wash my shirt you stained.

INT – DAWN AND CONNORS BEDROOM – NIGHT

Connor is sat on the end of the bed looking lost as Dawn sits at her dressing table and begins to rifle through her make up bag.

DAWN
You o…I mean, any plans?

CONNOR
No.

DAWN
What are you Oz?

CONNOR
Who?

DAWN
Never mind, so you’re just staying in?

CONNOR
Might patrol

DAWN
What time? I’ll come with you, I feel I’ve been slacking since I got the…you know actual power to fight

CONNOR
It’s easier alone, besides I’m going at nine

DAWN
Freakish coincidence?

CONNOR
What does that mean?

DAWN
Nothing

CONNOR
Nothing girl nothing?

DAWN
Nothing – to say to you – Nothing

CUT TO

INT – IVYS HOUSE

Ivy places two glasses onto the table and slips a movie into the VCR, she places a bottle of wine down on the table and pulls a small brown bottle from her pocket. She drops a single drop into the bottom of one of the glasses and smiles proud.

CUT TO.

INT – FAITHS APARTMENT

FAITH
It’s like the Osbournes in there

ANDREW
Right, except with more attractive people and less of a death threat

THALIA
Just throw stuff at them

FAITH
They’re coming!

Both dash away from the door and sit blatantly posed on the chair.

CONNOR
What is your problem?

DAWN
I don’t have a problem, except you being a complete jerk these past couple of days!

FAITH
Guys you wanna take this elsewhere?

CONNOR
Tell that to the little brat who can’t keep her mouth shut

FAITH
Step back short stack – now I get this whole brooding lost soul gig, I’ve seen it on your father and myself and it suits you the least so whatever it is, get over it and don’t ever talk down to her again

CONNOR
Or what?

FAITH
Or you’ll get a vasectomy the old school way, y’know?

Connor stands to Faith before staring hard at Dawn – she has tears in her eyes as he walks to the door.

CUT TO.

EXT – IVY’S HOUSE – NIGHT

Connor is running up the driveway as Ivy smiles from the window

IVY
I’ve been expecting you…

CONNOR
You have?

IVY
My friend called, she’s had a bit of an upset and won’t be around until later

CONNOR
Damn, I forgot your friend was coming over

IVY
We have plenty of time

CONNOR
I shouldn’t be doing this

IVY
Why shouldn’t you do what you want to?

CONNOR
Because I don’t want to

IVY
Then why are you?

CONNOR
Because it’s impossible to resist you

IVY
Aint that the truth

(We see what Connor doesn’t as Ivy’s eyes cloud over a yellow pale)

IVY
Kiss me

CONNOR
No

IVY
Love me

CONNOR
No

IVY
Take me

Connor
No

No sooner had he refused, than he was kissing her hard against the door way not caring about what the neighbours could see.

CUT TO.

INT – FAITHS APARTMENT

Dawn emerges from the bathroom as still holding the phone from calling Ivy, she’s wiping her eyes

DAWN
Sorry about this

THALIA
Don’t sweat it

ANDREW
Yeah we’re your crusaders – we back you up in the face of nasty people

DAWN
Thanks
(sniff)
Where’s Faith?

THALIA
Gone already

DAWN
Gone where?

THALIA
She followed Connor, like straight after he left

DAWN
What?

THALIA
What?

CUT TO.

EXT – IVY’S HOUSE – NIGHT

Ivy’s door remains open as Faith turns the corner

FAITH
Son of a bitch – literally
(pause)
Where’d he go?

She looks around and spots Ivy stood by the window, peeling her top from her back

FAITH
For more than Faith’s eyes need to see

She continues to walk on down the street, crossing directly in front of Ivy’s door as she does – she spots Connor’s shirt on the step.

FAITH
“Made in Los Angeles…”

Faith continues to examine the shirt as she knows it’s location is not enough evidence.

FAITH
Big, blood stained rip should do the trick
(beat)
And what d’ya know…there one is!

Faith looks forward, into the house where she spots Connor’s shoe on the stair case

FAITH
Nobody else has such poor taste

She slowly creeps up the stairs as she hears sounds coming from the bedroom, she edges to the ajar door and peaks in.

Ivy makes straight on eye contact with her as she has sex with Connor – she smiles at Faith via the mirror and continues, watching her the entire time.

END OF PART THREE

INT – BOSTON PRISON

Ryan is stood at the telephone

RYAN
Put him on

RYAN
Hey…
(listens)
Tomorrow?
(beat)
Great…can you put her back on please?

CUT TO.

EXT – FAITHS APARTMENT

Faith is stood outside literally beating the crap out of a wall as Thalia comes outside

THALIA
What did it do to you?

FAITH
It’s a rehearsal

THALIA
For the national wall fighting champion?

FAITH
For Connor…

THALIA
He pissed you off that bad?

FAITH
Did I go soft?

THALIA
Not according to that wall

FAITH
Seriously – before I left here, the first time – I was a bad-ass

THALIA
You were a serial killer in the waiting

FAITH
But I had the edge, it’s just gone, I don’t feel like Faith anymore

THALIA
You are still her, you’ve just changed

FAITH
Is this gonna get deep?

THALIA
Not really, can you come inside?

FAITH
Why?

THALIA
Cake?

INT – FAITHS APARTMENT

Thalia steps through the door grinning, as she leads Faith in

FAITH
This had better be…
(shock)
Wes?

WESLEY
(smiling)
Hello Faith
