So talk to me, people. 27 00:01:36,492 --> 00:01:39,086 How does what Shylock says about being a Jew 28 00:01:39,172 --> 00:01:43,723 relate to our discussion about the anger of the outcast at society? Cordelia? 29 00:01:43,812 --> 00:01:46,645 How about colour me totally self-involved? 30 00:01:47,252 --> 00:01:49,243 - Care to elaborate? - Yeah. 31 00:01:49,332 --> 00:01:53,484 With Shylock it's whine, whine, whine. Like the whole world is about him. 32 00:01:53,572 --> 00:01:57,008 He acts like it's justice, him getting a pound of Antonio's flesh. 33 00:01:57,092 --> 00:01:59,287 It's notjustice. It's yicky! 34 00:02:00,612 --> 00:02:03,809 But has Shylock suffered?

By itself. 94 00:07:13,172 --> 00:07:15,845 The thing was floating and it knocked me out. 95 00:07:17,532 --> 00:07:19,602 I'd better check out the scene. 96 00:07:19,692 --> 00:07:21,683 Where do you think you're going? 97 00:07:22,412 --> 00:07:26,485 Mitch wanted me to get his comb. He likes his comb. 98 00:07:26,852 --> 00:07:30,891 I don't think Mitch needs his comb. Mitch needs medical attention. 99 00:07:31,532 --> 00:07:35,969 And you need to stay away from the crime scene. Always sticking your nose in. 100 00:07:36,052 --> 00:07:38,043 Sue? What did you say? 101 00:07:38,132 --> 00:07:40,362 Mitch was gonna sue the school? 102 00:07:41,212 --> 00:07:43,203 Sue?

Look at Mitch? 108 00:08:39,452 --> 00:08:41,647 Maybe. All I know is it's a message. 109 00:08:42,212 --> 00:08:44,407 - And? - Ah, here you are. 110 00:08:44,492 --> 00:08:49,441 And monsters don't usually send messages. It's crush, kill, destroy. This was different. 111 00:08:49,532 --> 00:08:53,764 - I'd have to say you're right. - I love it when he says that. Any theories? 112 00:08:53,852 --> 00:08:55,843 It's a bit of a puzzle, really. 113 00:08:55,932 --> 00:08:59,607 I've never heard of anyone attacked by a Ione baseball bat before. 114 00:08:59,692 --> 00:09:01,489 Maybe it's a vampire bat. 115 00:09:02,332 --> 00:09:04,368 I'm alone with that one, huh? 116 00:09:04,452 --> 00:09:10,482 Well, assuming the bat is not possessed, there are a few possibilities to investigate. 117 00:09:10,572 --> 00:09:14,770 Someone with telekinesis: the power to move objects at will. 118 00:09:14,852 --> 00:09:19,289 An invisible creature, or possibly a poltergeist. 119 00:09:19,612 --> 00:09:22,604 - A ghost? - Yes, and a very angry one. 120 00:09:22,692 --> 00:09:25,684 Yeah, I'd say! The locker room was a real scene. 121 00:09:26,692 --> 00:09:30,731 - If it's a ghost, we're talking about a dead kid. - I guess so. 122 00:09:30,812 --> 00:09:34,805 Why not compile a list of dead or missing kids? Could be a good place to start. 123 00:09:34,892 --> 00:09:37,690 And I'll research all the possibilities. 124 00:09:37,772 --> 00:09:41,367 Xander, if you're not doing anything, would you like to help me? 125 00:09:41,932 --> 00:09:43,923 What?

You can do it. 129 00:09:55,412 --> 00:09:58,131 Ask around. Talk to his friends. Talk to Cordelia. 130 00:09:58,972 --> 00:10:00,963 Talk to Cordelia? 131 00:10:01,732 --> 00:10:03,768 So, research, huh? 132 00:10:04,092 --> 00:10:06,083 - Hi. - Oh, hi. 133 00:10:06,172 --> 00:10:09,767 - Cordelia, you weren't in fifth period. - I went to the hospital. 134 00:10:09,852 --> 00:10:12,412 Oh, Mitch. How is he? Will he be OK? 135 00:10:12,492 --> 00:10:16,690 The doctor says he'll be fine. They're gonna send him home tomorrow. 136 00:10:16,772 --> 00:10:20,731 But you should have seen him lying there, all black and blue. 137 00:10:21,532 --> 00:10:26,128 How will he look in our prom pictures? How will I ever be able to show them to anyone? 138 00:10:26,212 --> 00:10:29,488 They can do wonderful things with airbrushes these days. 139 00:10:29,572 --> 00:10:31,369 You think? 140 00:10:31,932 --> 00:10:33,923 - Hi. - Hi. 141 00:10:34,012 --> 00:10:38,608 Did you see Mitch? He just broke up with Wendy and he's already nosing around. 142 00:10:38,692 --> 00:10:40,091 It's shameless. 143 00:10:40,172 --> 00:10:44,927 In the spring, if he makes varsity baseball, maybe I'll take him on a test drive. 144 00:10:45,012 --> 00:10:47,401 - Hey, guys. - What do you want? 145 00:10:47,852 --> 00:10:51,481 I just hope they can prop him up long enough to take the picture. 146 00:10:51,572 --> 00:10:53,881 Cordelia, can I talk to you? 147 00:10:53,972 --> 00:10:56,327 - Oh, great. - Why is she always try... 148 00:11:03,012 --> 00:11:04,604 Harmony! 149 00:11:06,212 --> 00:11:08,168 Oh, for heaven's sakes. 150 00:11:08,252 --> 00:11:11,324 Clear back, everyone!

It's a rather cold, amorphous feeling. Makes your hair stand on end. 165 00:12:57,332 --> 00:13:00,847 That's my problem. I touched the thing, but it didn't go through me. 166 00:13:00,932 --> 00:13:03,162 It bumped into me, and it wasn't cold. 167 00:13:03,252 --> 00:13:06,767 - So we're talking about an invisible person? - A girl. She laughed. 168 00:13:06,852 --> 00:13:09,844 A girl on campus with the ability to become invisible. 169 00:13:09,932 --> 00:13:12,321 - That is so cool. - Cool? 170 00:13:12,412 --> 00:13:14,880 Yeah. I'd give anything to be able to do that. 171 00:13:14,972 --> 00:13:19,170 I wouldn't use my powers to beat people up, just to protect the girls' locker room. 172 00:13:19,492 --> 00:13:21,881 It must be a fairly heady experience, 173 00:13:22,932 --> 00:13:24,923 having that ability. 174 00:13:25,012 --> 00:13:28,561 How'd she get it? Is she a witch? Cos we can fight a witch. 175 00:13:28,652 --> 00:13:33,282 Hm, Greek myths speak of cloaks of invisibility, but they're usually for the gods. 176 00:13:35,372 --> 00:13:37,840 Research boy comes through with the knowledge. 177 00:13:37,932 --> 00:13:43,370 - This girl's sort of petty for a god. - She's got a grudge. But why Harmony? 178 00:13:43,452 --> 00:13:46,842 - And Mitch. The common denominator is... - Cordelia. 179 00:13:47,212 --> 00:13:48,804 So what now? 180 00:13:49,532 --> 00:13:54,242 - Tomorrow, pull up that "missing kids" list. - Got it.

Think about it. 296 00:24:37,692 --> 00:24:39,091 Cordelia? 297 00:24:39,172 --> 00:24:43,245 Just because this story's about him doesn't mean he's the hero.

So what do we call him? 299 00:24:46,612 --> 00:24:48,842 - Willow? - Well, the protagonist. 300 00:24:49,492 --> 00:24:53,610 - Xander? - Why can't he be both?

But they didn't see me coming. 341 00:27:36,092 --> 00:27:38,890 No. They gotta learn. 342 00:27:38,972 --> 00:27:41,805 From what you told us about the attack on Ms Miller, 343 00:27:41,892 --> 00:27:44,486 we now have two messages from Marcie. 344 00:27:44,572 --> 00:27:46,767 "Look" and "Listen". 345 00:27:46,852 --> 00:27:49,047 Messages we don't understand. 346 00:27:49,732 --> 00:27:53,486 I don't think we're supposed to yet. Marcie's not quite ready. 347 00:27:53,692 --> 00:27:57,731 But, from what she did to this picture, she's wigged on the May Queen thing. 348 00:27:57,812 --> 00:27:59,803 She may do something about it. 349 00:27:59,892 --> 00:28:04,124 Stop the coronation tonight maybe.
