Meanwhile, outside, Willow and Amy face off in a magical duel, where Willow gets an assist in capturing Amy. As Amy is being held captive, Buffy is awakened by a kiss from her true love. Elsewhere, Giles, still investigating the mysterious symbol, seeks information from an unlikely source. And, back at headquarters, Buffy and Willow play catch-up. Finally, Amy springs a trap and makes a dramatic escape, taking Willow with her and leaving Buffy fuming.
