Here it is -- the last promo breakdown for a new episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, titled "Chosen" :

Narrator: Acuvue Cam presents a preview of next week's Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

We open with a shot of a hand lighting a match, then bringing the lit match over some kind of engraved tablet sitting on a table.

Narrator: The end is here.

Cut to a shot of 5 young people kneeling next to the Seal of Danzalthar, with their arms out (kind of like a seance), similar to the new Bringers we saw in "Storyteller".

Fade to a shot of Caleb, standing in the temple, with blood running down his face from his eyes, nose, and mouth.

Caleb: "Are you ready to finish this?"

The figure of Caleb is overlapped by a sillhouette of a figure, glowing white, with no distingushing features.

Cut to a shot in the Summers' house. Willow is in the left foreground, Spike is standing right behind her, Faith can be seen further back, leaning against a doorway, and it could be Kennedy stadning next to Faith. They are all looking intently at something off-camera.

Narrator: Be there as the Slayer takes her last stand.

Fade to a shot of Buffy standing up from the couch in the living room. Spike is now seen standing behind her. Buffy is wearing different clothes than we saw in the previous episode. Also, it's obvious that it is daylight outside the house.

Narrator: Will this be Buffy's final hour, or her finest hour?

Cut to the shot of Angel from "End of Days", looking on with a half-grin on her face.

Fade out, then fade in on an extreme close-up of Buffy. She has a gash over her left eye, and her face is smudged with dirt, but her eyes are wide open and very bright (but not a special effect).

Reverse angle to see Spike, looking a bit tousled himself, looking at Buffy with a surprised look on his face. The way he is lit, he almost looks like an elf in this shot.

We fade from that shot to a shot of the entire army of SiT's standing around a large hole in a cave. Everyone is armed with various types of weapons. The shot zooms to the center of the group, where we see Buffy and Faith standing side by side. No one looks as if they have fought, yet, as everyone looks down into the hole.

Cut to a shot of Buffy standing in the living room, talking to everyone. Spike is seen leaning against a doorway behind her. Buffy is wearing the same clothes that she was seen in the previous shot in the cave.

Buffy: "I'm finishng this once and for all."

Cut to a reaction shot of Giles, standing in front of the living room windows. He looks shocked.

Cut to a shot of Buffy and Angel in the temple, shot from behind Buffy and looking directly at Angel.

Cut to Spike lurking in the shadows, looking on at Buffy and Angel, as the FE stands further behind him.

Buffy (VO): "Brace yourself."

Cut to a blurry shot of Spike, standing and looking at something towards the camera.

Cut to a blurry shot of Buffy (or is it the FE?), standing in the Summers' basement.

Quick cut to a shot of the Axe, lying on the gorund or a white sheet, as Buffy runs her hands over it.

Cut to a blurry shot of Buffy talking to the troops in the living room.

We then get a blurry close up of one of the Uber-Vamps, as it growls.

There is a brief shot of a very blurry shot of something (maybe the FE in its true form), but there is no way I can tell for sure with the mess on screen.

Then we get three or four shots of just some blurry, streaky colors, before we settle in on Willow, eyes wide open and with a smile on her face. Her hair (including her eyebrows) is totally white, and Willow herself begins to glow and the entire screen becomes white.

Narrator: The earth-shattering series finale.

Cut back to the cave scene, where we see Buffy swing her Axe, while other UberVamps are in the background, fighting the Potentials.

Pull way back to see Buffy's swing connect with 3 Turok-Han, as they fly backward and fall into the pit.

Cut to a shot of many Turok-Han clambering up cave walls, and then a close up of one of the Ubervamps hits the screen.

We then see a shot of multiple Ubervamps (5-6) charging up an incline in the cave. Some of the Turok-Han are carrying spears.

Amidst the melee, we see Buffy kick an Ubervamp in the face.

Cut to a shot of Spike, head tilted up, looking at something off-screen. He has a slight smile on his face, and is lit by a bright light from above.

Spike: "I want to see how it ends."

An extreme close-up of Willow's face (hair color=red) overlaps and fades in.

That shot fades to black, then we fade in on an Ubervamp coming out of the shadows.

Cut to a shot of Chou-an slicing an Ubervamp's face with her axe.

Fade to black, then fade in on a shot of the Excalibraxe in mid-air.

Fade to black, then fade in on Spike inside the cave. He is screaming as he looks up towards the ceiling. He is wearing an amulet around his neck.

Fade to black, then fade back in on the Axe, still flying in the air (but not spinning).

Cut to a shot of Buffy, bruised and with a cut over her left eye, as she catches the Axe and holds it poised for striking.

Cut to a side shot, as we see Ubervamps charge the gang. Buffy is in the foreground and brings the Axe back, then stabs an Ubervamp with the stake end and the Ubervamp is dusted.

Fade out on a shot of storm clouds issuing lightning.

Narrator: Buffy the Vampire Slayer, sponsored in part by Acuvue contact lenses.

Here is tonight's new promo footage, tacked on to the end of an Angel season 2 DVD ad.

After the ad, the WB announcer intones:

Narrator: Don't miss the season premiere...

We open on a shot of Spike suddenly appearing in an office lobby. He is standing up and holding his right arm up as he screams his lungs out. The camera swoops in for a close up.

Cut to a head shot of Angel, standing in an office (lobby?). He is looking downward, then his eyes grow wider as a glow grows stronger. The camera is doing that shaky thing like it is an earthquake or something.

Cut back to Spike in the lobby, only this time he is bent over, as in pain.

Narrator: ...Wednesday, October 1st on the WB.

Cue the infamous promo poster, with Spike (in profile) standing in front of Angel. An Angel Season Premiere logo is to the left of the picture.

Here is the promo that aired for the season premiere of Angel on the WB this Wednesday night:

Narrator: 2 Weeks from tonight.

We open with part of the power shot from "Fool For Love"/"Darla", where we see Angel and Spike (Darla is behind them, but out of focus), strolling through the Chinese streets during the Boxer rebellion.

Narrator: Theirs was a brotherhood stained in blood.

Cut to a close up of of a grinning Spike, in vamp-face, after telling Angel that he just killed a Slayer.

Switch to a close up of Angel in vamp-face (and period wig (shudder)).

Angel (VO): Angel and Spike

Cut to a shot of William stomping through a London street, just after bumping into Drusilla, Darla, and Angelus.

Spike (VO): aka William the Bloody.

Cut to a shot of Spike standing in the gypsy family's wagon just after he massacred them.

We switch out of flashback mode and see a shot of the LA skyline at night. A bright light, like a meteor, is visible in the sky.

Fade into a shot of sunrise over Los Angeles.

Cut to a shot of Angel from the power shot in "Darla".

Narrator: Now, centuries later...

Cut to a shot of the sun quickly setting.

Cut to an aerial shot of LA at night.

We then see a shot of what appears to be Angel walking down an empty alley at night, near a parking garage.

Fade in on a shot of Angel, dressed in a dark grey suit jacket and black shirt (no tie) standing in an office, presumably at Wolfram & Hart.

Angel (VO): What do you want from me?

Cut to a shot of Spike walking through an office lobby. He is wearing his duster.

Cut to Spike standing in front of some windows with blinds. It is night, and there is no light on inside the location that he is in. He is talking to someone at the camera location.

Spike: "I want it to end."

Narrator: ...Angel has found salvation in the living.

Cut to a shot of Angle walking into an office (at Wolfram & Hart), during daytime. There are many, many windows in the office and there are no curtains visible, but the view of other buildings is.

Cut to a shot of someone (presumably Angel) swinging from a rope towards another building. He is at what appears to be at a high distance from the ground. The shot is at night (and looks very cool, from this transcriber's point of view).

Cut to a shot of Angel leaning against his desk in his office. A weapons cache is visible behind him as he rubs his chin and talks.

Angel: "We're going to change things."

Cut to Angle (dressed in the business attire) entering a darkened room where many people are standing and talking, like a cocktail party. Spike is standing next to Angel.

Cut to a shot of a brightly-lit corridor of some institution, where many (I count 6) soldier types with rifles are running around to set up an attack or something.

We then see a shot of Angel and Spike talking to each other in a lab of some kind.

Spike: "Another vampire with a soul."

Inside the lab, we see Angel (I think) do some kind of Matrix-y maneuver where he runs towards and up a wall, then spins and kicks some soldier-type in the face.

Narrator: The other is lost somewhere in between.

We see a shot of Spike standing in the doorway of an office, peering over the threshold to see if the coast is clear as the camera zooms in on him.

Fade to a shot of Spike standing in an office, looking perplexed.

Cut to a shot of Spike standing in a lab. Fred (in a lab coat) is behind him, holding a chart. Angel is further back, seated at a table. Gunn (in a suit) is standing next to Angel.

Fade to a shot of Fred (in a print dress) standing in the office with all the uncovered windows.

Fred (VO): Maybe he's here for a reason.

Cut to a close up of Spike standing while he glances down at the floor.

Fade to a shot of someone's feet and legs (wearing pants and black dress shoes) walking down a corridor.

Fade back to the Spike close-up, but this time he's talking to someone.

Spike: "The ground underneath me is pulling me in."

Cut to a shot of Spike hunched over in pain in an office.

Fade to black, then fade in on Spike standing in the office, holding his right hand up and screaming in pain.

Spike: Aaaagh!

A large, glowing SPIKE graphic appears on the screen.

Flash out, then flash in on the Angel season premiere logo, which is the normal logo superimposed over a shot of the LA skyline at dusk.

Narrator: The season premiere of Angel, 2 weeks from tonight on the WB Wednesday.
