In this shot, we see Wesely, then Cordelia, then Gunn. As the camera pulls in on them, they pull there hands away from each other, reacting to some force.

Flash cut to another shot of the electrode hooked up to her eye.

Flash cut again, until we pull out and reveal River seated in a mutand dentist chair. River is in a white hospital gown. The chair with its attached apparatus is in the middle of a very dark space as light shines down on River.

We cut to another shot of the electrodes. This time, we see that the electrodes are not attached to the eyelids, but seem to dig into the skin surrounding the eye, out around the orbital ridge. A bright light flashes into River's face as her eye moves around.

We cut to River waking up and screaming from the medical ward bed.

River: :"Ahh!"

Narrator: Now, to save his sister....

We see a shot of Serenity in space as the Firefly engine kicks in.

Here is the promo breakdown for next week's Angel episode, "Apocalypse Nowish" :

We open directly on a shot of Gunn and Lorne talking in the Hyperion lobby. A splat noise is heard and Gunn turns his head towards the door.

We then see Gunn coming up to the glass door as something SPLATS! against it, leaving a splotch of blood on the window.

Fade to black, then the graphic "IT IS THE BEGINNING...." splashes across the screen in fiery type.

We start to heard Cordy's voice over the graphic.

As we continue hearing Cordy, the shot fades in on Angel stalking through what looks like the kitchen.

Fade to black, then fade in on Connor seated in the hotel lobby.

Another fiery graphic appears on the screen - "OF THE END."

Cut to a shot of a naked leg peeping out from under some sheets as the camera pans up to the head of the bed.

Jump cut to the top of the bed, where we see two people locked in an embrace. Can't identify either of the partners, but I'm guessing that is Connor on the bottom of the clinch.

Someone screaming can be heard in the background.

Flash cut to a different scene, where we see Wesley (on the bottom) ripping open the shirt of what I'm taking as Lilah made up to look like Fred. My guess is based on the amount of cleavage seen in the shot.

We then see a shot of Cordelia rising out of a prone postion, as if she is waking from a dream. Cordelia draws in her breath in shock.

Cut to a shot of Angel in the lobby (sans black leather coat seen in all the previousl shots).

We fade in on a different shot, where Spike and the woman appear about to kiss. This shot appears to be in a deserted location.

We then cut to a shot in the Bronze. On the catwalk, we see Spike (with a different girl) push away from the girl, and we then cut to a stunt of the girl flipping over the catwalk railing and falling down to the ground.

Narrator: Girls are really falling for bad boy Spike. [Transcriber's note - aren't those UPN guys just the funniest ?]

Cut to Spike sinking his teeth into an older-looking woman. This shot is at a different location, maybe an interior room in the school.

Switch to a shot of Spike and Anya. The shot is from behind Spike as he is on his bed, and we can see that Anya is sitting on the bed opposite him. Anya has kind of a "what the hell, why not?" look on her face.

Anya: "Let's go!"

We reverse to a shot from behind Anya. We now see that Spike is probably naked under the sheets. We also see that Anya is holding a wooden stake in her right hand.

Spike: "Is that a stake?"

We reverse back to focus on Anya. She has a "oh, this?" look to her as she glances at the stake.

Narrator: Will Buffy be next?

Buffy: "You know you want it."

Buffy twists her head a bit to expose her neck, as though offering it to Spike.

Now we see a shot of Buffy, wearing a black sweater, standing in the middle of a room as she turns her head toward the camera.

Spike (OS): "Your jealous."

Spike closes in for the bite. As he gets closer, Buffy (acting passively all along) winces. Spike appears to hesitate as he closes in. We don't see the completion of the scene, as the shot dissolves into a close up of Aimee Mann singing onstage.

Narrator: Plus special musical guest Aimee Mann.

As Aimee Mann is singing, a graphic "AIMEE MANN" appears on the screen.

We then cut to a shot of backstage at the Bronze, as Aimee is coming offstage. We can see Spike standing off to the side a bit in the shot.

Aimee Mann: "I hate playing vampire towns."

Cut the Buffy logo.

Narrator Buffy, UPN next Tuesday at 8, 7 Central.

Grr. Arrgh.

The gunshots go off. We see Xander and Buffy fall to the ground, then see Warren running away, still shooting (wildly)

We then see the shot break through the bedroom window.

Reverse to Willow, with blood spattered on her blouse, as she reacts.

Willow: "Tara?"

Buffy: "Willow, what did you do?"

We see a scene from "Two to Go", where Andrew and Jonathan are in the holding cell in jail as Anya explains what is going on.

Cut to Anya

Anya: "We have to get you out of here, or you'll both be killed."

Pull out to see all three characters in the jail cell.

Andrew: "What about Warren?"

Focus back in on Anya.

Anya: "She killed him."

We turn to scenes from "Grave". We see Andrew talking to Xander as they are fleeing down the streets of Sunnydale from Dark!Willow's wrath

Andrew: "We've gotta get out of this town. "

Andrew turns to talk to Jonathan, then the shot changes angle to see both to them.

Andrew: "Mexico. We should go to Mexico."

Scenes from "Beneath You":

We see Anya in the Bronze staring at Spike.

Anya: :"How did you do it?"

Buffy: "Cassie!"

Focus in on Cassie, lying dead on the floor as Buffy tries to take her pulse.

Buffy (whispering): " Cassie!"

Spike; "This is just the beginning, love. Horror and bloodshed."

Reverse to see Buffy, trying to understand what Spike is saying.
