Here is the promo breakdown for the next Buffy episode, "Showtime" :

Narrator: UPN Next Tuesday -

We open with a shot of Buffy walking through what looks like a cave, with torchlight seen on the walls behind her. One can see that she is still healing from her encounter with the Ubervamp, as the cut abover her eyebrow is fading but still visible.

Narrator: Is there a creature even Buffy can't slay?

The screen goes dark, then we get three frames of a shot of the Ubervamp inside the Summers household. The Ubervamp has his arms waving around.

Cut to black, then we get another quick shot of a blond girl lying face down on the floor, with a fallen lamp next to her. A bloody wound is visible on her right shoulder, and blood can be seen soaking the carpet next to her. This looks like it may be Buffy. She is wearing a biege jacket and pants. A figure flicks in and out of the frame of the shot, but it can't be made out what it is. This shot is four frames long.

Cut to black, then cut in on a shot of some kind of creature that looks like a round ball of flesh covered with eyes, one big and many smaller ones. It looks very similar to a Beholder, for any D&D players' reference. This shot lasts only one frame.

Cut to black, then cut to a shot of the Ubervamp approaching the Summers' front door. Four Bringers can be seen standing behind him. The Ubervamp moves toward the house. This shot lasts three frames.

Cut to black, then we get a close up of the Ubervamp approaching the Summers' house. That shot lasts four frames.

We then cut to Buffy seated in the living room, wearing her dark leather jacket.

Buffy: "I want to hurt it real bad."

We cut immediately to a shot of the Ubervamp, outside, glowing in some kind of lighting. His face is glistening, as though this is after he took the bottle of liquid to the face.

Cut to the Beholder, which we now can see is held in a round cage. Strong-looking iron chains hold the cage up above ground level.

Beholder: "It cannot be fought. It cannot be killed."

We switch angles from behind the Beholder to see that it is about seven feet up from the ground, and that Giles (still wearing the same outfit he wore in "Bring on the Night", including his coat) and Anya are talking to it. Anya is wearing a long red coat. Wind appears to blowing at them. The surrounding area is all black, as though this might be some other dimension.

Fade to black, then fade in on two Bringers at a doorwar (but the door doesn't look like the Summers' door), hlding their curved knives.

Fade to black, then fade in on a side shot of Giles, Anya, and the Beholder. We now see a third chain holding the cage in place from the ground, and that the beholder has a stalk extending out of its back and out of the circular cage.

Cut to a shot of four floodlights as they switch on.

Cut to a shot of another set of floodlights switching on. Both sets of floodlights look like they are set up underneath the eaves of a house.

Narrator: Buffy gives the Slayers-in-training their first taste of true evil.

We see (from right to left) Dawn, Kennedy, Molly, and Willow, standing outdoors somewhere. Everyone is holding a weapon. Dawn has an axe, Kennedy has a crossbow, Molly has a short sword or a long knife, and Willow looks to be holding a hatchet. They all turn towards their left and back as the floodlights come on.

Cut to a shot of the Ubervamp reacting to the floodlights.

Cut to a shot of Buffy doing a flip in the air. Buffy is wearing her dark leather coat and jeans and seems to be lit by the floodlights as well.

We cut back to a shot of the Slayers-In-Training, as they wheel back around from reacting to the floodlights. Kennedy brings up her crossbow and aims it at something.

We then cut to a shot of Buffy getting hammered by a flying kick from the Ubervamp. This appears to be from her fight with it at the industrial site during "Bring On the Night".

We see Buffy flying into the metal wall of the warehouse, as a graphic "TRUE EVIL" flashes on the screen.

We cut to a shot of the Ubervamp holding up Buffy by her neck and choking her, also from "Bring On the Night".

We fade to white, then cut in on a shot of Kennedy stanidng inside the Summers' house, in front of the door, talking to Willow.

Kennedy: "How's evil taste?"

Cut to a reaction shot of Willow, with a bit of a frown on her face. The boarded up front window is visible behind her.

Willow: "A little chalky."

We finish with a shot of Buffy seated in the dining room of the house. She is wearing a white blouse in the shot.

Cue the Buffy logo.

Narrator: An all-new Buffy, next Tuesday at 8, 7 Central.

Grr. Arrgh.

Here is the previously on breakdown for tonight's Buffy episode, "Showtime":

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

We open with scenes from "Never Leave Me":

We see Spike straining at his chains in Buffy's basement, trying to convice Buffy that he's a menace and should be killed. We then switch to an angle behind Spike as we see Buffy talking to him.

Buffy: "I believe in you, Spike."

We reverse to see Spike's incredulous look on his face.

We then cut to shots of the Bringers crashing into the Summers' house in their attack.

We cut to see Buffy and Xander walking down the basement steps, looking for Spike.

We see a shot of the empty manacles still attached to the wall.

Buffy: "They were after Spike all along."

Cut to a shot of Spike attached to the wheel as it is being raised up to have the blood drain out of the symbols carved on his body.

Buffy (VO): "You know what we're up against, the First."

Cut to a shot of one of the harbingers running the crank that lifts the wheel.

We then see the Seal of Danzalthar opening up.

Cut to a shot of Spike suspended from the ceiling, with blood pouring out of him, as the First Evil!Buffy looks on.

FirstEvil!Buffy: "Now Spike, want to see what a real vampire looks like?"

Cut to a shot of the Ubervamp after it rose from the Seal.

We then shift to scenes from "Bring On the Night":

First, we see Willow attempting her spell, and magic waves streaming up her nose.

We then cut to a long shot of Willow at the table, as a vison of some evil, crab-shaped thing arises out of Willow's spell.

We then see Willow, crying and lying on the floor. Buffy cradles her head.

Buffy: "We won't use magic to fight this thing until we know what we're doing."

Cut to a shot of Buffy opening the front door, and we see Gliles (or is it really him?) standing there.

Buffy: "Giles!"

Giles(?): "Buffy."

The Slayers-In-Training walk through the door before Buffy can hug Giles. Molly comes through first, then Annabelle, then Kennedy.

Cut to a shot of everyone standing in the living room. At the beginning of the shot, we see Dawn standing in the middle of the shot, with Kennedy, Molly, and Annabelle in a line next to her. Dawn moves towards the right, and the camera pans across the room, where we see Anya and Willow seated on the couch and Giles standing at the end of the couch, explaining what is going on. The shot finishes focused only on Giles and Buffy, seated in a chair in front of the fireplace.

Dawn: "They're all Slayers?"

Giles(?): "Potential Slayers, waiting for one to be called. There were many more like them all over the world, but, now there's just a handful, and they're all on their way to Sunnydale."

Cut to a shot of Molly, Annabelle, and Kennedy seated around the kitchen island, as they stare at Buffy after her first encounter with the Ubervamp.

Reverse angle to see Buffy seated and Giles pacing behind her, explaining more about the new monster.

Giles(?): "What you fought was a vampire, but it was something more than that. It was a Turok-Han

Cut to a shot of the Ubervamp racing down the alley and grabbing Buffy.

We then see the monster throw Buffy up against a wall.

We then see the monster throw Buffy through a wall.

We switch shots to the other side of the wall to see Buffy come crashing through it after the Ubervamp has heaved her through it.

Giles(?)(VO): "...Ferociously powerful killing machine, single-minded animals."

We cut back to Giles(?) talking in the kitchen.

Giles(?): I think this Turok-Han is here as an agent of the First."

We cut to the scene at the end of the episode. An extremely battered Buffy talks to the rest of the group.

Buffy: "They want an apocalypse? Oh, we'll give 'em one."

Cut to a shot of Kennedy (in the foreground) and Molly (further back), seated at the dining room table and lookin on attentively.

Pull back to see a shot of the entire gang seated at the table and looking at Buffy.

Switch back to a close up of Buffy.

Buffy: "We just became an army. There's only one thing on this earth that is more powerful than Evil. And that's us."
