As Buffy tries to decide what to do with her life, the Troika
plans a series of tests for the Slayer that wreaks havoc with her
attempts to return to college, work in construction, and work at
the Magic Box. After her dismal failures, Buffy gets drunk with
Spike, who takes her to a demon bar to play poker and perhaps learn
who is harassing her. When Spike fails to "fix her life," an overwhelmed
Buffy turns to Giles for help. Giles, despite his unease at Buffy's
growing dependence upon him, offers a gift of money.
