DARREN
What did she say?

WILLOW
Got to contact her every thirty-five seconds with reassurance and update

JAMIE
So, who did this?

WILLOW
I’ve got a feeling who is not what, I think what’s the what

JAMIE
What?
(to Darren)
Do any of your “special” friends speak normal? Translate

DARREN
This wasn’t a human attack

TARA
You think a-a demon did this?

DARREN
You think anything else could?

TARA
I guess not but, if it can do that to Dawn, t-to the Guardian then we don’t stand a chance

DARREN
I know

JAMIE
Hello! What is the tweedle dumb and tweedle dumb as it gets? A mega witch zombie, a goddess, a slayer, super jungle boy, a gypsy and three guardians! Wow, hard ride you got there!

TARA
I-I’m not a, uh, I’m not a zombie

JAMIE
Whatever okay, you guys are clueless you can take out anything you want!

DARREN
We could maybe form the corners, see if the four guardian’s can bring her back

WILLOW
She hasn’t gone anywhere

DARREN
Bring her round then

TARA
Wait, where’s Thalia an-and Ryan wouldn’t they have b-been here by now?

Thalia is hid behind the door in silence, tears streaming down her face as she clutches a full suitcase in her hand.

CUT TO.

INT – ANDREW’S BAR – DAY

Connor is sat at the bar drinking the day away, a look of pain across his face

Maria and Andrew watch from the other end of the bar.

ANDREW
You think I should talk to him?

MARIA
That depends, to you…value your life

ANDREW
That bad?

MARIA
He killed a lamp on the way over

ANDREW
Ouch!

MARIA
Have you heard from the other’s yet?

ANDREW
No, Willow’s been trying to find them all day

CONNOR
Who?!

ANDREW
(scared)
Thalia and…and Ryan

Connor gives the strangest most twisted look before storming out of the bar, Maria follows

MARIA
Where are you going?

CONNOR
I have something I need to do

MARIA
Connor wait!
(ignored)
CONNOR!

END OF PART ONE

INT – HOSPITAL – NIGHT

Jones arrives at the hospital with a large bunch of flowers

JONES
Excuse me nurse, I’ve just been to Dawn Summer’s room and…her sister was there earlier, do you know where she went?

NURSE
Sorry, she had to leave. She said it’s “too much” and ran out like a maniac

JONES
Good wording, I can tell you’re a people person

Jones walks off, the nurse looks around suspiciously before entering a closet. Faith is tied up and gagged. She’s passed out. The nurse pulls her hat and glasses off releasing long blonde hair

LINDA
Linda’s gonna get the last laugh bitch

She smile’s wickedly.

CUT TO.

INT – FAITH’S APARTMENT – NIGHT

Connor smashes through the door and stops in his tracks

TARA
What’s happening?

Darren stands up and gets right in Connor’s face.

CONNOR
Don’t even think it

DARREN
Don’t even try it

CONNOR
How do you know what I’m gonna try

DARREN
Are you a psychic?

CONNOR
No

DARREN
Then how do you know what I’m thinking?

CONNOR
Get out of my way

DARREN
This is not the time or place for trouble, got it?

CONNOR
Where. Is. Thalia!?

Darren doesn’t move, Connor grabs him by the collar and tosses him across the room, crashing on top of a table

He kicks the door off of Thalia’s room and sniff’s the air.

Connor (now being watched from the door by Willow and Tara) tears the door from her closet. She’s sat in the corner crying

CONNOR
Get. Up.

She doesn’t move

Connor grabs her by both arms and tears her out of the closet, dropping her as he does

CONNOR
I said get up!

WILLOW
Connor!

CONNOR
What happened?

THALIA
I…

CONNOR
You’ve been here today, I know you have and he was here to…I can smell him so don’t try and lie to me. Tell me what happened!

Thalia doesn’t say anything. Connor picks her up and holds her against the wall.

TARA
Stop!

Connor looks at her hard, disgusted.

CONNOR
I’ll find him myself.

He releases her, she falls down crying.

CONNOR
If you’re here when I get back, I will kill you

THALIA
Connor…

CONNOR
That’s not a threat

Connor steams out of the house, stopped in the street by Jones

JONES
Hey, you okay?

CONNOR
(through teeth)
Have you seen Ryan?

JONES
No, sorry buddy, you seen Faith anywhere?

CONNOR
I have to go

Connor walks off

JONES
Thanks for the help!

CUT TO.

INT – WAREHOUSE – NIGHT

Faith comes round to see Linda in front of her.

FAITH
Jesus, don’t you ever give up

Faith is about to break free from the rope

LINDA
Now, now I don’t think that’s a good idea do you?

FAITH
What you think you’re gonna kick my ass or something?

LINDA
No, but if you move I’ll push this button on my watch and you’ll be really uncomfortable with the shock it gives you

FAITH
Check you out, all high tech and no sanity

Linda smiles as she flicks the button

LINDA
I did warn you

Faith writhes in pain

FAITH
Why are you still doing this?

LINDA
Because, you whore, you killed my family and you ruined my life

FAITH
So it wasn’t the fact you’re completely screwed up that done that?

LINDA
This stuff doesn’t work on me Faith, I know what you’re trying to do

FAITH
What’s that?

LINDA
You’re trying to make me vulnerable

FAITH
Here I was thinking I was trying to piss you off

Linda’s smile drops as she slams her hand on the button and keeps it there.

CUT TO.

INT – FAITH’S APARTMENT – NIGHT

Darren, Willow, Jamie, Tara and Maria are sat in front of Thalia like a jury.

THALIA
You need to find him

JAMIE
Look lady, I don’t know you but you’re already on my hit list because you’re pissing me off past realistic levels. Stop crying and get a bloody grip.

Everyone backs off a little shocked

JAMIE
What?

THALIA
Ryan

TARA
W-what about him?

THALIA
You have to find him…right away

MARIA
What’s going on?

JAMIE
I know exactly what’s going on.
(hard)
If that guy with the bar hair doesn’t kill you, I’m next in line.

Jamie walks out closely followed by Darren

EXT – FAITH’S APARTMENT – DAY

DARREN
Jay, what’s going on?

JAMIE
Nothing you can handle

DARREN
Even after your speech?

JAMIE
This is gonna take one hell of a lot more than speeches Darren

DARREN
Jamie, just tell me what’s going on

JAMIE
It’s Ryan, this is the first time this has happened to him ever. His father was really unstable, we’re talking the love child of Hannibal lectar and Norman Bates here.

DARREN
Whoa, what happened?

JAMIE
You ever seen someone get really angry?

DARREN
Sure

JAMIE
What about someone who’s half demon, you ever seen that get angry?

DARREN
Occasionally

JAMIE
You ever see someone lose their temper so much that the demon consumes their humanity and tears people to shreds in front of you, because I have when I was fourteen. Ryan’s Mum told his Father that she was marrying my Dad…I’ve never seen anything like it.

DARREN
Jamie…

JAMIE
I don’t get this Guardian thing okay, I never will because what I’ve seen? Nothing can stop that and it’s happened to Ryan, I can feel it

DARREN
How did they stop his Father?

JAMIE
When did I say they stopped him?

CUT TO.

EXT – SPRING CARNIVAL – DAY

Connor is marching through the streets sniffing Ryan out.

Reacting to a scream, Connor sprints over to the crowd. A body, or a mangled corpse is thrown to his feet. He looks up in shock to see “Demon!Ryan”

Unrecognisable, Ryan’s skin is rough and a murky greyish green colour. It’s split all over like trillions of paper cut’s. His eyes are an almost blinding bright green. He’s around eight feet tall and wide as two built men. His arms are long and strong with black, blood dripped talons at the ends.

Ryan immediately spot’s Connor and begins to run for him. Connor leaps into a kick only to be flung back into a wall, crushed against it like a rag doll.

Holding his sides, Connor begins to run, making sure Ryan stayed in for the chase.

He’s limping along desperately trying to stop from passing out. He runs through the nearest open door to him.

FAITH
Connor?

Connor looks at Faith a little bemused as Linda steps out

LINDA
So you’ve come to help your friend?

CONNOR
Who are you?

LINDA
Oh please

CONNOR
Listen lady we’ve got bigger problems right now

LINDA
Oh? What sort of…

Linda stops talking as the wall behind her is completely removed and she is cut directly in half from right shoulder, to under her left breast.

FAITH
What the…

Connor unties Faith and pulls on her arm

FAITH
We’ve gotta fight this thing

CONNOR
No, we’ve got to run, we can’t take this alone

FAITH
Come on!

Ryan continues forward and slams his hand on the ground, splitting it all the way long to where they’re standing

FAITH
Running is good.

Both sprint with all their energy as the building begins to crumble on Ryan. Both collapse to the ground as it cave’s in.

FAITH
What was that?

CONNOR
(breathless)
Ryan

INT – FAITH’S APARTMENT – DAY

Faith and Connor arrive back, holding each other up.

Faith’s first reaction is to smack Thalia to the ground – She’s not there.

FAITH
Where is she?

WILLOW
Faith, calm down

FAITH
My sister is in a coma, her “best” friend knew what happened to her and just left her there and I am seriously close to falling back on bad habits

Faith storms into Thalia’s room and sees the window open

WILLOW
Connor, what happened to you guys?

JAMIE
Ryan

CONNOR
How did you know?

JAMIE
I always know

FAITH
You know how to stop him?

Jamie doesn’t answer the question

FAITH
Answer me

JAMIE
You can’t stop him. He’ll break any one of you into two pieces, by the blood up your shirt – you know, the blood that’s not your own, I’m thinking you have an idea where I’m coming from
(pause)
Where is he?

CONNOR
Building fell on him

JAMIE
How big was the building?

FAITH
Maybe twenty feet tall, forty wide and sixty long

JAMIE
You’ve got an hour

FAITH
No way can he get out of that in an hour

JAMIE
You have fifty nine minutes
(beat)
fifty nine minutes to decide what you’re going to do.

Jamie grabs her coat from the side

DARREN
Where are you going?

JAMIE
Find that bitch and take her down

DARREN
She’ll kill you

JAMIE
We’ll see

CUT TO.

INT – ANDREWS BAR – DAY

ANDREW
I’m sorry we’re closed…

Andrew stops as he sees KORBEN

ANDREW
Hey Korben, how’s things?

KORBEN
Hey Andy

ANDREW
It’s Andrew

KORBEN
Sorry, I correct myself – Hey Andrew

ANDREW
Did you wanna use the bathroom because I can’t serve you drink yet

KORBEN
No
(laughs)
I came to see about a job

ANDREW
How old are you?

KORBEN
How old do you want me to be?

ANDREW
Twenty one plus

KORBEN
What do you know, I just became twenty one plus

ANDREW
Korben!

KORBEN
I’m twenty, I’ll be twenty one in May

ANDREW
Sorry

KORBEN
Come on, give a guy a break it’s six weeks!

ANDREW
What do I get out of it?

KORBEN
What do you want to get out of it?

ANDREW
Okay
(awkward)
$8 an hour weekdays, $12 on weekends. Don’t be late you start on Monday

KORBEN
One more thing…

ANDREW
Paid vacation?

KORBEN
Okay two more things

ANDREW
Okay but be quick I have to go visit my friend in the hospital

KORBEN
Okay, um paid vacation is cool but, I feel rude asking – is there any room upstairs?

ANDREW
There’s an apartment, but I live there

KORBEN
Well, that’s cool I can share

ANDREW
But it’s one room

KORBEN
(walking out)
Like I said, I can share. I’ll bring my stuff over tomorrow

CUT TO.

INT – FAITH’S APARTMENT – DAY

FAITH
Twelve minutes, we have twelve minutes until he’s due to break free

DARREN
Guys, do you really think he’s going to head here?

FAITH
Sure we just let a building fall on him

WILLOW
But if what Jamie said is true then…

FAITH
What? What did know it all say

WILLOW
The Beast, he has the memories but not the feelings, not the emotions attached to them

FAITH
Which means?

CONNOR
Dawn.

FAITH
Dawn?

CONNOR
Why do you think he came here in the first place
(oh god)
Dammit!

WILLOW
All he’s going to remember is Dawn letting him sit in jail for five months, not why…just that she did it

FAITH
We have to get their, now

CUT TO.

EXT – BOSTON AIRPORT – DAY

Jamie walks out with a face of thunder.

CUT TO.

INT – BOSTON COLLEGE – DAY

Thalia is signing release forms at reception. She dot’s her I’s then crosses the T and turns to walk away. Jamie is stood with her arms folded, she’s not happy.

JAMIE
So, running away?

THALIA
Don’t, you don’t know me so don’t start

JAMIE
No, I think running away is good. Do you know where you’re going to?

THALIA
My Mother’s

JAMIE
Where’s that?

THALIA
My business

JAMIE
Somewhere in England I take it

THALIA
Yes

JAMIE
It’s a small place, maybe I’ll bump into you sometime, then again – that all depends on whether you’re lucky or not.

Jamie reaches into her pocket and pulls out a ticket.

JAMIE
One way. It’ll take you where ever you want to go in England, it does not want to be near me and if you ever go near Ryan again when we get him back, you’ll spend more time horizontal than you already do.

Jamie walks away leaving Thalia and shock

JAMIE
Jamie by the way and if you get an epiphany where you suddenly realise you can help…don’t.

Jamie walks out into the rain leaving Thalia lost and confused.

CUT TO.

EXT – FAITH’S APARTMENT – NIGHT

Ryan is roaming around outside, waiting for someone to make the move on him.

FAITH
We’re doing this now.

Faith, Connor and Darren join hands in a circle with Willow. She looks to the sky as a rush of power surges through them

WILLOW
This won’t last more than twenty minutes, get it done, whatever it is.

CUT TO.

EXT – FAITH’S APARTMENT – NIGHT

JAMIE (O.S)
Hey you

Ryan spins to see Jamie, his face becomes softer, the skin begins to smooth over again and his eyes return to normal…for a second until he roars with rage, back into his demon form as an arrow shoots into his back.

JAMIE
Faith, No!

Faith charges at Ryan and kicks into his face. He immediately swings her off and through a wall.

Darren gets in three punches before being used as a bowling ball against Jamie

DARREN
You okay?

JAMIE
You’re idiots all of you! He was listening to me!

Connor runs up the side of the wall and leaps off against Ryan’s face. Ryan run’s off down the street.

CONNOR
The Hospital!

Faith’s already up on the roof, leaping across to avoid any stray vampires or pedestrians. Connor follows.

JAMIE
Come on

DARREN
You’re coming to the hospital

JAMIE
He’s not going there

DARREN
What?

JAMIE
The person who started all this…the person who, right now, is completely without protection

DARREN
Thalia!

CUT TO.

INT – PLANE – NIGHT

Thalia smiles at the hostess as she sits nervously as she buckles her belt and stares out of the window.

Confuses, she clears the window from rain (via a little sunny spell) to make clear a large figure galloping at the plane.

END OF PART THREE

INT – PLANE – NIGHT

Thalia shake’s it off, blaming her imagination.

CUT TO.

INT – HOSPITAL – NIGHT

Faith and Connor arrive in a hurry. Dawn is sat up in bed

CONNOR
Dawn!

FAITH
Told you nobody does coma’s like I do…except Cordelia

DAWN
What are you guys doing here? Did you stop him?

FAITH
We thought he was coming here

DAWN
Connor I’m so sorry

CONNOR
It’s not your fault, Ryan’s lost it completely

DAWN
Ryan?

CUT TO.

INT – AIRPORT – NIGHT

Darren and Jamie arrive, skidding through the lobby and crashing into the window.

JAMIE
He’s on the runway!

INT – PLANE – NIGHT

Thalia is shaken as the plane begins to rumble furiously. After a rough few minutes and the plane coming to a stand still. All is calm.

Everyone takes a deep breath and relaxes only to begin screaming again as the side of the plane is torn off.

Ryan grins at Thalia, baring large fangs!

CUT TO.

INT – HOSPITAL – NIGHT

DAWN
Ryan didn’t do this to me!

CONNOR
Who did?

CUT TO.

EXT – FAITH’S APARTMENT – NIGHT

WILLOW
(calling as she leaves)
I’ll be five minutes

Willow walks around thirty yards before stopping with a chill down her spine as a familiar voice reaches out to her

VOICE (O.S)
Well, well, well…

She turns in shock

ANGELUS
If it isn’t the soul girl

He drops the body of a young woman and licks his lips

To be continued…

Guest Starring
David Boreanaz as Angel

**please do not ask what Thalia did, it happened during the time line of episode 11 and will be explain in episode 13**
