In a comical scene resembling a famous sequence from the Mission: Impossible films, Warren, Jonathan and Andrew steal a large diamond from a museum, leaving its sole guard frozen by their freeze-ray.
As Buffy rushes to the scene, Spike again asks her about the last kiss; she says she was on edge due to Giles' decision to leave and apologizes for leading him on.
After verifying, with Warren's help, that the chip appears undamaged and still causes him agony when he harms humans, Spike tells Buffy that she "came back wrong" and that she has a "little demon" in her.
Willow, sad and lonely without Tara, figures out a way to turn the metamorphosed Amy from a rat back into human.
Meanwhile, Tara meets with a depressed Dawn and assures her that she was not to blame for her moving out or her break-up with Willow.
