"Hello, Mr. Olsen?"
"This is Karl Olsen. Who is this?"
"I’m a friend."
"*Whose* friend?"
"Sung’s."
Silence.
"Whoever you are, this isn’t a very good joke."
"It’s not a joke, I swear. I knew Sung, and I want to help you."
"How can you ‘help’ me?"
"There are some things you deserve to know."
"Like?"
"Bad things happen in Sunnydale. I don’t think I can ever explain that to you—you’ll just have to believe me. Bad things happen in Sunnydale, and there’s people in the town who don’t want anybody to know that. That’s why all of these ‘mistakes’ with Sung’s body happened. One of those bad things happened to her, and the people I mentioned are trying to cover it up."
"Do you have evidence for this? Because if you do, I’m the wrong person to be telling. You should go to the police."
"The police…wouldn’t help. Mr. Olsen, I’m sorry I can’t tell you more, but I want you to understand two very important things: one, Sung did not commit suicide. Two, her death has been avenged. I swear."
Silence.
"Do you believe me?"
Silence.
"Yes. I do."
"Does it help?"
Silence.

Buffy hung up the payphone. That was all she could do. More than she should have done, really. As Willow had said, this wasn’t the kind of helping people she was good at.
