Getting everyone off the streets is a little more difficult than expected, particularly when Sunnydale syndrome exists and nobody thinks anything’s wrong, ever. Still, the cover of ‘gangs on PCP’ had worked for them this time. Telling everyone that darkness demons were going to eat anybody outside after nightfall doesn’t work, but warning everybody of roving gangs seems to be doing the trick. They’re all busy running around getting everyone off the streets, but there are a couple who just aren’t. The most noticeable is an older man in a really flashy suit that doesn’t look like it should ever be worn in Sunnydale. He looks like he’s trying to find something, but there shouldn’t be any draw for a guy like him in town.
“Sir, you really—shouldn’t be here,” Buffy trails off as the businessman turns around and looks awfully familiar. Older than he should be, but that really looks like—
“I told them we should’ve taken that right miles ago,” the man jokes, which is when she knows this isn’t a hoax. This is the real deal.
Only Xander jokes so badly in the face of peril.
