From Episode 4. Buffy goes to Spike for help finding out what's happening with Cassie, the psychic girl. Spike is still crazy and is saying he's bad. He starts hitting himself and Buffy stops him. He's getting confused about "hurting the girl"--he blames himself. He means Buffy, which is confusing to Buffy because she wants to know who's going to hurt Cassie. When she starts to go away, he begs her not to leave, but she says she feels he's worse when she's there. As she leaves, he yells after her, "Don't hurt the girl!"--which he also says later when he rescues Buffy from the demon. And when Cassie sees him, she has something to say about his future: "Someday she'll tell you."

Spike hallucinates that Buffy has come to help him get through his problems; the real Buffy shows up and tells him that he needs to get out of the basement because whatever is there is causing his problems. She also tells him that he has a fresh start with her.

A wish granted by Anya (Emma Caulfield) has devastating consequences in this alternately witty and wrenching tale. Anya's breakup with Xander (Nicholas Brendon) has driven her to return to her vengeance-demon ways with, well, a vengeance. But that changes after she takes a humiliated coed's desire to make frat boys “feel what it's like to have [their] hearts ripped out” too literally. Horrified by the carnage she has caused, Anya struggles to wash the blood from her hands. Juxtaposed with this “Macbeth”-like scene is a hilarious flashback detailing Anya's transformation from medieval Swedish housewife to demon. Back in the present, Willow discovers the bodies and alerts Buffy.

Dawn has a crush on a high school football player. She finds herself in competition for his attention with other girls. She has a fight with one girl, and Buffy intervenes. Later, Buffy talks with the football player to tell him to behave more responsibly, but when he puts on his jacket, Buffy begins to have a different reaction to him; she begins to find him more physically attractive. Later, Buffy pulls him out of class ostensibly for a guidance consultation, but instead she brings him into a classroom to get to "know" him better. Meanwhile, Xander and Spike work together, with plenty of snarky banter, to solve the problem of the football player's mysterious allure. They visit his brother, whom Xander remembers as being similarly charismatic. However, when they meet him, he is living in the basement of his parents' house and seems to be an underachiever. Xander and Spike figure out that the power of the spell is in the jacket, and they accost the football player and remove the coat from him.

Can Two Divorced Men Share An Apartment Without Driving Each Other Crazy? Just received some additional info on 'Him' from one of my industry sources. Not only are Spike and Xander fighting alongside each other in this episode, they're now living with each other as well. Turns out that Buffy's advice to Spike in 'Selfless' is apparently "Move Out Of The Basement". Her solution, Spike should move in with Xander. If this isn't a clear sign of another apocalypse, I don't know what is. One other tidbit, it's written by Drew Z. Greenberg.
