Here is the promo for the next Angel episode, "Supersymmetry" :

Narrator: Next week on the WB's Big Sunday...

After some shots of the WB logo and DB standing around, we see a scene from this week's episode, where Angel, Gunn, and Fred come crashing in to save the day at Connor's place.

Cut to the shot of Angel standing on the rooftop of some building in the twilight as the camera zooms in for a close-up.

Narrator: USA Today calls Angel one of TV's best-kept secrets.

Cut to a shot from "Ground State", where we see Gwen jump-starting Angel's bare chest.

Cut to a shot of Gwen and Angel making out like crazed voles, as a graphic "TV's BEST KEPT SECRETS" - USA TODAY flashes on the screen.

Fade to a shot of Cordy materializing in the hotel lobby.

Reverse to the MoG entering the hotel and discovering Cordelia.

Cut to a shot of new footage, where we see Cordelia executing a spin kick. If you look closely (not that I would), you can see her tattoo in the small of her back, so I've been told.

Reverse angle of Cordelia's kick, as we see she's fighting a vampire, but I can't tell if it's Angel or not, since it is obviously a stunt man in the shot.

Reverse back to Cordelia, where we see she has pulled out a stake and is holding it ready to strike.

Narrator: And it's only getting better....

Cut to a shot of Cordelia, wearing different clothes than the action shot earlier, talking to somebody whose head we see just the corner of, but I'm guessing it is Angel or Wesley, because the hair is too short to be Connor's. [Edit - boy am I wrong about this. After re-watching the episode "Slouching Toward Bethlehem", I realize this scene is from that episode. Cordy IS talking to Connor. So much for my brilliant deduction].

Cordelia (whispering): "Something bad is gonna happen."

Cut to a shot of Connor in profile, standing and looking on with a sullen smirk on his face.

Cut to a shot of Angel walking through a hallway in the hotel.

Narrator: Those closest to Angel share something...unexpected.

Fade to black, then fade in to the now infamous scene, where we see Cordy and Connor. They appear to still be in the room that Connor has staked out for himself. Cordelia is standing in front of a closet and the camera is as though it is in the back of the closet lookingout. Connor comes up from behind Cordy and brings his arms around her waist. He leans in closer to Cordelia's neck.

Connor: "How 'bout some more training?"

Cut to a shot of Angel opening a door of a hotel room and peering in.

Narrator: An all-new Angel, next week on the WB's Big Sunday.

Narrator: Next Tuesday, on an all-new Buffy...

We open with a shot of what appears to be the Bronze. We see Dawn (dressed up for dancing) storm across the floor as she tries to pass Buffy. The shot is from behind Dawn.

The next shot reverses angles, where we see that Buffy has held her arm up to stop Dawn as we see Dawn's face. Dawn flounces to a stop and looks angry.

Reverse angle again to focus on Buffy. Her hair has the notorious bangs. Buffy then walks past Dawn, brushing past her and bumping her with her shoulder.

We get the glowy Celtic cross effect, then flash cut to a shot of Dawn, dressed casually in a dark jacket, fighting some other girl (we see from behind the other girl, so we can't tell who it is except they have longish hair). The scene could be outside the Bronze.

We cut to another angle of the fight, this time from the side, as the other girl and Dawn drag each other down to the ground.

Narrator: Watch what happens when Buffy gets the hots for her little sister's boyfriend.

Now we get some of UPN's "special effects". The next scene fades in with a kind of starry twinkle added to the shot and a tinkling sound effect, kind of like the sound you hear on Antiques Roadshow when they reveal the value of an item. The actual shot fades in to what appears to be a closed classroom, where we see some Sunnydale High boy wearing a letter jacket. We can see Buffy (dressed in black) leaning against the closed door and looking at him seductively. Buffy brings up her hand and points at him suggestively.

Cut to another shot in the classroom. This time, we see Buffy and the guy from the side as they appear to be standing close together in the middle of the room. Buffy grabs the guy's jacket by the front and plants a big kiss on him.

Dawn: "You betrayed me."

Reverse to a close up of Buffy. As Buffy speaks (as though she were talking to a child), we get the sparkly "special effects" again.

Buffy: "You're the one who constructed this elaborate fantasy about you and my lover."

The sparkles fade out, and we see a scene at the Bronze where we see Dawn dancing with the guy. Dawn holds her arms up over her head and dances suggestively and the guy dances directly behind her, leaning in to nuzzle her neck.

Cut bakc to the Summers' household, as Dawn stands up in shock and indignation.

Dawn: "Your lover?"

We cut to a couple of shots of the band The Breeders air-playing their instruments.

Narrator: With musical guest The Breeders. sotto voce How appropriate.

We "twinkle in again on a new shot. This time we see Buffy is straddling the student as he lays back on a table in the center of the room. Buffy and the guy turn their gaze towards the door.

Reverse cut to see Xander standing in the doorway.

Narrator: ...they're seeing dead people.

Flash cut to a black and white shot of a grave in the graveyard, with a hand sticking straight up out of it.

Cut to a shot of Buffy and someone else crash through a stained glass window of the church/chapel seen in "Beneath You".

Reverse the shot to from the inside of the chapel as Buffy and the other guy crash through the glass.

Cut to the creepiest shot in the promo. As lightning flashes to light up the Summers' living room, we see Joyce splayed out on the couch, much like she was in "The Body", but her eyes are all blank and milky. I think we see Dawn's head in the left corner of the shot, looking towards the couch.

Zoom in on Joyce.

Reverse to a shot of Dawn.

Cut to a shot from a different angle, at a different time, as we see Dawn hold her head with her hads. She winces as the windows next to her explode inward from some force.

Cut to a shot of the empty living room, totally in the dark, as all the windows blow inward.

We see a shot of Dawn laying on the floor and looking up, as we see debris scattered all around.

We see what look like stills of another girl (in black and white) superimposed over stop-motion (in color) of Dawn standing up amidst the debris.

Cut to black, then fade in on Willow seated at the table. She is visbly crying. We can just see a bit of blonde hair in the foreground.

Willow: "Tara!"

Cut to a shot of Dawn, sitting in a dark corner of the house and holding an axe.

Dawn: "Mom?"

Cut to a shot of Buffy, standing in the graveyard and preparing herself for something.

Buffy: "Here we go."

Flash cut to a shot of Spike holding a blond someone as he vamps out and rushes forward to bite (but we don't see the finish of the bite).

Cut to a shot of Dawn, standing in the living room, bringing the axe down for a killing blow.

Cut to what looks to be an excavated pentagram, cast in silver or some other shiny metal with cryptic designs all over it. We see two somthings digging it out. The shot is at night, as they have lanterns for illumination.

Cut to Buffy being held up against a tombstone by a vampire.

Narrator: It's Buffy's Night of the Living Dead.

Reverse to the vampire, as he shrugs his shoulders and shakes his head.

Vampire; "Everyone's got issues."

Cue Buffy logo.

Narrator: UPN Nest Tuesday, at 8, 7 Central.

Grr. Arrgh.

Here is the previously on for the Buffy episode "Him":

(Giles) Previously on Buffy the Vampire Slayer....

In the shortes previously on record, we see only scenes from the last new episode, "Selfless"

We open up on Buffy visiting Spike in the basement. This it the Buffy dressed in black, rather than the imagined Buffy that Spike was talking to just previous to this scene.

Buffy: "Spike, this is the Hellmouth. You have a soul? Fine. Show me. Get out of this basement."

We cut to Spike, seated on the floor and kind of hinding behind his hands as he looks up to Buffy.

Spike: "I don't have anywhere else to go."

We cut to the end of the episode, where D'Hoffryn is explaining things to Anya.

D'Hoffryn: "There will always be vengence demons. But now you, Anya, you're out."

Cut to outside the frat house, as Xander tries to talk to Anya about what happened. This shot focuses on Xander.

Xander: "Whatever's between us, doesn't matter. You shouldn't be alone in this."

Cut to a close up of Anya: "Yes I should."
