Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1996–2003): Season 6, Episode 10 - Wrecked - full transcript

Amy introduces Willow to a warlock whose powerful black magic proves addictive; Buffy and Spike deal with the aftermath of their night of passion.

Previously.

Looks like I'm not as toothless
as you thought, sweetheart.

- How?
- You came back wrong.

Willow, you're using
too much magic.

What do you want me to do, just
sit back and keep my mouth shut?

That'd be a good start.

- Forget.
- I know you used that spell on me.

What is wrong with you?

I don't think
this is gonna work.

Are you saying
you're gonna leave me?

- Amy, how have you been?
- Rat. You?



- Dead.
- Oh.

It's nice, having another
magically inclined friend around.

There's gotta be someplace,
like, bigger than this.

It's way too early
to go home yet.

- It's beautiful.
- Boys, congratulations.

Phase one of the plan
is now complete.

- I'm in love with you.
- You're in love with pain.

Are you afraid I'm gonna...

Uh-oh. Morning paper!

Hello.
Good morning.

Morning-paper dog here.

What time is it?

Almost 7:00. God, I just
closed my eyes for a minute.

A-and now
there's cartoons.



Plus I have the mother
of all-night wedgies.

Uh-oh.
Mmm. It's not tragic.

I'm sure as soon
as I stand up...

No, dawn.

Why didn't anybody
wake us up?

Where is everyone?

Willow didn't
come home either.

They were out
all night.

Where are they?

I'm sure they're fine, dawnie.
I'm sure they just...

Lost track of time.

When...

When did the building
fall down?

I don't know.

Must have been some time between
the first time and the, uh...

Oh.

Oh, my god.

Shoe. I need my shoe.

- What's the hurry, love?
- The hurry is I left dawn all night.

And don't
call me "love."

You didn't seem to take issue
with that last night.

Or with any of the other
little nasties we whispered.

Can we not talk?

I just don't see why
you have to run off so quick.

- I thought we could...
- Not gonna happen!

Last night was the end
of this freak show.

Don't say that!

What did you think
was gonna happen?

What? We're gonna read
the newspaper together?

Play footsie
under the rubble?

Not exactly what I had in mind.
Stop!

Make me.
No! Ow!

No! No!
I-i have to...

Stay. I'm stuck here.
Sun's out.

I knew. I knew the only thing better
than killing a slayer would be f...

What?

That's what this was about?
Doing a slayer?

I wouldn't throw stones, pet.

- You seem to be quite the groupie yourself.
- Shut up.

I'm just saying
vampires get you hot.

A vampire got
me hot. One!

But he's gone.
You're just...

You're just convenient.

So, what now?

You go back to
treating me like dirt...

Until the next time you got
an itch you can't scratch?

Well, forget it!

Last night changed things. I'm
done being your whipping boy.

- Nothing's changed. It was a mistake.
- Bollocks!

It was
a bloody revelation.

You can act as high
and mighty as you like,

but I know where
you live now, slayer.

I've tasted it.
Get a grip.

Like you're god's gift.
Hardly.

It wouldn't be nearly
as interesting, would it?

No! Let me go!

I may be dirt,

but you're the one who likes
to roll in it, slayer.

You never had it so good as me.
Never. Oh, you're bent!

Yeah. But it made you scream,
didn't it?

I swear to god,
if you tell...

Anyone about last night,

I will kill you.

Right.

You, uh, gonna
want these too.

Pancakes?

Uh, sure.

Um, should we call Xander?

What if they're all
in a ditch somewhere?

Ditches are bad. Mom always
used to talk about the ditches.

Nobody's in a ditch.
We'll call,

but we'll give 'em some time
before we wake them up.

Funny shapes or...

Won't be able
to eat for a while.

No worries though. It'll
wear off in a day or...

- Hey.
- Hey. I just...

B-Buffy didn't come home
last night either, so...

Uh, hey.
Uh, this is Amy.

Amy, Tara. Tara, Amy.
How you doing?

Fine. I... I'd
b-b-better g-get going.

Amy. Amy the rat?
Sorry.

No. That's fair.
I was a rat.

When...

Last night. It's nuts.
Everything's different.

I mean, the bronze, for one thing.
And Willow.

She's a freakin'
amazing witch now.

- I couldn't even keep up with her last night.
- Amy.

No, its true! I mean
I can do some transmogrify,

but she is messing with
dimensions and everything.

It was awesome! This blowhard dude?
First, she made his mouth disappear.

Thank god. And then...

I'm talking too much.
Sorry.

It's just been,
you know,

me and a bag of pellets
for the last few years, so...

No, I-i-it's fine.
It's just, um...

I-I really need to go.

Tara, wait. You left some
stuff upstairs. I saved...

- I'll get them later.
- Tara.

Buffy! Where were you?
Are you okay?

I'm fine.

You're not.
You're all sore and limpy.

I-I'm not sore.
I just, uh, had a fight.

You know,
the all-nighter kind.

Figured. I knew
that's why you didn't call.

So, what's the big bad?
Should we be worried?

No. I-i think
you guys are safe.

- Tara was here?
- I guess she stayed over with dawn.

You guess?
Where were you?

We went out. We kind
of lost track of time.

Oh.

I never would have if I knew
you weren't coming home.

No, of course.
I mean, you know,

it wasn't intentional.

And, you know,
everyone's safe.

You are, right?
You're okay?

Oh, yeah. I mean, um...

I think my pancakes
are burning, but...

Tara was making them.

I've, uh...
I've got to get some sleep.

Me too.

Yeah. I should go home.

Dad's expecting me. Okay.
I'll call you later.

Yeah. Good.

Are you sure you're all right?
I'm sorry about everything.

It's okay.
You should rest.

You're beat from
monster wrestling all night.

Yeah. Right. Thanks.

Yeah. I'm gonna
crash too.

Night, dawnie.

No problem. I'll just...

Go find some awake people.

All these demons are
starting to look alike.

You got reptiles,
reptiles with horns,

reptiles with gills.

I'm still finding nothing of the "steal
a diamond, freeze a guy" variety.

An, would you hand me
that one next to you?

Great. We're not even married yet, and
already you've stopped listening to me.

Anya! I'm sorry, but
this is pointless.

We've been researching forever,
and we're not close...

To finding out
who robbed that museum.

- What's up?
- Anya has a theory.

She thinks that Martha
Stewart froze that guy.

Don't be ridiculous. Martha
Stewart isn't a demon.

She's a witch. Please,
she... really?

Of course. Nobody could
do that much decoupage...

Without calling
on the powers of darkness.

Guys, while this is fascinating,
we still have work to do.

I know I do. I can't decide whether to put
my bridesmaids in cocktail dresses...

Or the traditional burlap
with blood larva.

The traditional what? Well, I was a
demon for a thousand years, Xander.

You can't expect me to turn my
back on all the ways of my people.

- Can I weigh in on this whole "me wearing larva"?
- - No.

At least I'm not asking you to perform
the groom's rite of self-flagellation.

Uh, guys. There's
something out there.

There is. And as much
as I hate to admit...

That my bizarre
bride-to-be has a point,

we're gettin'
nowhere here, buff.

Maybe it's time to try something new.
You know?

Hit the streets. Get spike on it.
No. No. No spike.

A-and no "hit the streets."
W-we stay put, you know?

Away from distractions.
We'll figure this out.

What about Willow?
Can't she do something?

Maybe.
But she's home sleeping.

Sleeping?
She sick?

No. She was
out late with Amy.

And I'm bizarre?

At least I didn't dump you
to hang out with an ex-rat.

No, it's not like that. She's just
helping Amy through a transition.

And making herself a
playmate to do magic with.

Someone who won't
monitor her, like Tara.

Willow's a grown-up. Maybe she
doesn't need to be monitored.

She's going through something,
but we're not her.

I mean, maybe she has reasons
for acting this way.

And so what
if she crossed a line?

You know, we all do stuff.
Stupid stuff.

But then we learn. A-and we
learn, and we don't do it again.

Okay, so, you know, who
are we to be all judgey?

Not judgey, buff.
Just observey.

Yeah, all we're saying is she's
acting different, you know?

She's not herself.

So, what do you
want to do?

It's gonna be hard
to top last night.

Yeah. I don't know
if I can.

I felt awful today.
And I couldn't do magic.

It took me all day
to get my powers back.

I think we should
just take it easy.

I have a better idea.
What?

I know this guy. And he knows
spells that last for days.

The burn-out factor
is, like, nothing.

Really?
He's a warlock?

I guess.
But I'm not kidding you.

This guy
will blow your mind.

He will take you to places
that you can't even imagine.

Is it dangerous?

Would that stop you?

This is it.

Where? I thought you said
the guy lived around here.

He does.
You can't feel it?

What do you...

Here.

It's hot.

Come on.

It's cool, isn't it?
The place is cloaked.

Yeah. Moves around a lot too.

Keeps rack
out of trouble.

Rack? Who's...

Rack. Rack, it's my turn.

No, man. You said I was up. Bull!
I've been here for hours!

I believe
these two were next.

Thanks, rack,
for taking us.

I know
it's been a while.

- You'll never believe...
- You were a rat.

- How did you know?
- I hope that taught you...

Not to mess with spells
you can't handle.

You should leave that in the
hands of a professional.

Ooh.

This one's
giving off vibes.

I don't mean
to vibe at you,

uh, if it's
in a negative way.

No. No. I mean you...
You have power, girl.

It's just
coming off you in waves.

Not so much.

I mean,
I can do stuff,

but I-i get
tapped out quick.

And I've used practically
every spell I know.

And what do you want me
to do about that?

I don't know. I-i
thought... Amy said...

"Amy said."

Amy said
I could help you.

But did Amy say
how you could help me?

No. I have
some money, a bit...

Not money.

I could help you with your computer.
I'm really handy.

Just relax.
I'm not gonna hurt you.

You got to give a little
to get a little, right?

It's okay.
It's over fast.

That's right.

I'm just gonna
take a little tour.

You taste
like strawberries.

Ow. Ow. Ow. Ow.

Or you could do it
the hard way.

Spatulas are for wimps.

I'm making peanut butter and
banana quesadillas. You want?

No, thanks.

I'm, uh, more
in water mode.

Ow. Ow. Ow.

Huh. You sure? It's my
own brand-new invention.

Mmm. I'm sure. My tummy's
feeling kind of rumbly.

Your loss.
Very delicious.

Buffy called. She said
she was going straight...

From the magic box
to do some patrolling.

Oh. Did she need help?

No, she was
just calling to check in,

for, like,
the 10th time today.

I think she's feeling all Joan
Crawford 'cause of the other night.

Yeah, about that, um,
I'm really sorry.

I-I shouldn't have assumed
Buffy would be here.

Right. Assume would make
"u" an "ass" out of "me."

Or, um, something.

Anyway, please.
It's cool.

I mean, it's not like I even
needed Tara to stay over.

I'm so totally fine
on my own.

But you are gonna
be around tonight, right?

Right. Totally.

Oh, w-we can do something
if you want.

A movie maybe?
Really?

But I thought
you weren't feeling so good.

Well, nothin' a little
dawnie time won't fix.

If you feel like baggin' the peanut
butter, I'll even buy you dinner.

Oh.
Thank god.

Remind me never
to invent that again. Yuck.

Mmm. Great.
This will be great.

I'll just grab the paper
and see what's playing.

I'll leave a note for Buffy
on the refrigerator.

That's the first place she goes after patrolling.
She's such a pig after she kills things.

Hello?

Willow?

Dawn?

What's going on?
Uh-oh.

Busted.
Where's Willow?

She said...
She said I could... wait.

What is this? It's not
what you think it is.

It's Sage. That is
what I think it is.

What's going on? Where's
Willow and dawn?

Well, I-i...

I saw... I saw her,
but that was...

I like your coat. When does
a slayer find time to shop?

So they didn't
let you in?

Not that they know of.

What else did you take?
Nothing.

Ow!
What else?

Please.
Please, I need this stuff.

Willow wants me to have it.
She understands.

Understands what? Breaking into
someone's house for kitchen spices?

No.
I don't think so.

You should.

She's as bad as I am.
Worse.

I bet she's
at rack's right now.

Rack's?
A place.

H-he does spells,
heavy stuff.

Willow's his new favorite.
She's there?

With dawn?

Oh, don't shake me again, super strength.
I think I'm gonna boot.

Then tell me where this
place is, and I won't.

It's downtown.
But it moves.

What do you mean,
it moves?

It's downtown. I'm not sure where
it would be tonight exactly.

Tell me how to find it. You just
kind of have to feel it out!

Oh, god, I think I'm gonna...
Oh, god.

So, uh, the burger was good?
You liked it?

Are you kidding? It was like
a meat party in my mouth.

Okay. Now, I'm just a kid, and
even I know that came out wrong.

Huh.
It was good.

But you should've
had something.

I will. I'll eat. I'm
saving myself for popcorn.

The other day,
you had fun?

Mmm. What other day?

Give me a "Mon" or a "Fri"
here... something to work with.

The other day with Tara.
Oh.

Uh, yeah. I mean, it
was... it was nice.

But it wasn't a laugh riot.
She's sad and everything.

Did she say something?

Not exactly.

I-I can just tell by the
way she was acting.

Oh.

Uh, are you sure
you're okay?

- You look a little...
- No, I'm fine.

And Tara's in her new place and everything?
She's all settled in?

Um, we really
didn't get into...

Well, is this right?

Is this the way
to the movies?

Oh, yeah. I'm, uh, just... i
took you the long way around.

But we're almost there. I, uh, just
have to make one quick stop first.

What is this place?

Why is it hidden? I don't know.
It's cool, isn't it?

Okay, you just hang here for a minute.
I'll be back.

Y-you want me to conjure you
a magazine or something?

What about the movie?
It starts at 9:00.

We'll make it.
I-I'll just be a minute.

It doesn't matter
if we miss the trailers.

I like the trailers.

What do you think,
strawberry?

Can you handle some more?

God, do you sleep
through anything?

I was, like,
yelling and nothing.

I'm a bit knackered.
Had a long night.

Someone should teach you how to
use candles in foreplay, love.

Get dressed.
Dawn's missing.

Again?

Ever think about
a lojack for the girl?

- What's the story?
- She went out with Willow.

Willow? That's kind of
a sorry excuse to come by.

You want "the touch,"
all you need to do is...

Spike,
Willow's into something.

Her and dawn have been missing for hours.
There's some guy named rack.

- Rack?
- Yeah, he's some sort of...

I know who he is. He deals in magic.
Black stuff. Dangerous.

I've been all over downtown,
and I can't find his place.

He cloaks it. You can't feel it
unless you're into the big bad.

- A witch or a vampire.
- So let's go.

Oh, that's right.

Hide your blushing eyes.

Hey, wait your turn.

Hey, dawnie.
It's movie time.

Do you know how long I've been out here?
It's too late for the movie.

And that guy
smells like...

A-are you okay?

I'm fine.
Let's get out of here.

So, what do you
want to do, cutie?

It's late.
I just want to go home.

No way. I said
we were gonna have fun,

and we are gonna
have fun.

I'm serious. I think we
should just get out of here.

"I think we should
just get out of here."

Come on, dawnie.
It's grown-up time.

Do you want to play with
the grown-ups or not?

Why are you
acting this way?

Oh, don't get all weird on me.
We're fine.

Everything's fine.

Anything?
Not yet.

I might pick up on it if you'd
stop asking me every two seconds.

Spike, if you're
dragging this out...

What? So I can linger near your
precious self? Get a grip.

Like you've never
drawn things out before.

Maybe. But we've been
through this, haven't we?

Things have changed.
Will you quit that?

The only thing that's different is
that I'm disgusted with myself.

That's the power
of your charms.

Last night...

Was the most perverse, degrading
experience of my life.

Yeah. Me too.

That might be how you get
off, but it's not my style.

No, it's your calling.

Gave me a run
for my money, slayer.

Now, I admit it. You've had
me by the short hairs.

I love you.
You know it.

But I got
my rocks back.

You felt something
last night.

Not love.

Not yet. But I'm in
your system now.

You're gonna crave me
like I crave blood.

And the next time you come calling,
if you don't stop being such a bitch,

maybe I will bite you.

That's it.
I want you out of my life.

Out of my work. Out of my home.
Too late for that.

You invited me in already.

And as for your work, you need me.
Like tonight.

I'll find dawn myself.

You really gonna put your little
sis in danger just to spite me?

Willow, I'm serious.
I'm going home.

Then go.

God, I thought
we were gonna hang.

You're not
coming with me?

Well, I don't know.

Maybe I could
just, uh, pop you back?

With magic?

What's that?

What? I didn't...

Oh... I'm getting out of here.

Oh, dawnie, don't. It was probably
a cat or something like that.

Aaah!

Oh, no. It's okay.
He's not real.

Seems real.
Very real.

- You summon me, witch?
- I-i didn't...

You did. You raised hell
with your magics.

Ow!
Fresh.

- Don't! She has nothing to do with it. It was me!
- Yes.

He's coming!
He's too fast!

Open! Get in!

Close.

Drive!

What are you doing?

Whoo!

Take that, scuzz!

Oh, god.

No! Stop!

Ow!

Aaah!

Dawn!

Now you're scared?
Better late than never.

Dawn.

Dawn. What happened?

Are you okay? Ow! He was after Willow.
She made the car drive.

Don't! No, honey, please.
I need to see it, okay?

Let me see your arm.
Dawn.

- Oh, god. There's blood.
- We need to get her to a doctor.

Is she okay?
Is she okay?

Back off, wil.
I got her.

No. Dawnie!

I mean it.
Stay away from her.

Dawnie! Dawnie,
I am so sorry.

I'm so sorry. It was an accident.
I didn't see.

I'm so, so sorry.

Dawnie.
Dawnie.

Don't!
Dawnie, I'm sorry.

I'm s... I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Get up.

I screwed it up.
Everything. Tara...

Yeah, you know what?
You did screw up. Okay?

You could have killed her!
You almost did!

I know. I know.

I can't stop, Buffy.
I've tried, and I can't.

You can. I can't! I can't.

I ju...
God! I need help.

Please.
Please, help me.

Please.
Help me. Please.

Is she okay?
She's sleeping.

The E.R. doc gave her something
for the pain. It knocked her out.

But she's
gonna be all right?

It's a fracture.

It's gonna
take some time.

God. I'm sorry.
I'm so...

I just don't
understand.

I don't understand why you'd
go to see somebody like rack.

And I certainly don't understand
why you dragged dawn into it.

I don't know.

The magic. I...

I thought I had it under control.
And then...

I didn't.

Because of Tara?

No. It started
before she left.

It's why she left.

Seemed like things
were going so well.

It was.

But, I mean,

if you could be...

Plain old Willow or super
Willow, who would you be?

I guess you don't actually have an
option on the whole super thing.

Wil, there's nothing
wrong with you.

You don't need magic
to be special.

Don't I?

I mean, Buffy,
who was I?

Just some girl.

Tara didn't even
know that girl.

You are more
than some girl.

And Tara
wants you to stop.

She loves you.
We don't know that.

I know that.
I promise you.

I just...

It took me away
from myself.

I was...

Free.

I get that.
More than you...

But it's wrong.

People get hurt.

If something had
happened to dawn tonight...

Something worse...

I know.

No, I don't think you do.

I-I...
I was out of my mind.

I-I did things.
I can't even...

It won't happen again.
I promise.

No more spells.
I'm finished.

Good.

I think it's right...

To give it up.

No matter
how good it feels.

It's not worth it...

Not if it messes
with the people I love.

Magic wasn't all great.

I won't miss the nosebleeds
and the headaches and stuff.

There you go.

Or keeping stinky
yak cheese in my bra.

Don't ask.
Now I don't have to.

'Cause it's over.

Exactly.

It's over.

Grr! Arrgh!
