Scene: The Bronze. It's night. Willow, Oz, Buffy, and Angel are sitting in their usual corner. Buffy's arm is in a cast adn Angel has a bandage above his eye.
Willow: That was a crazy night last night, wasn't it?
Buffy: Oh yes. Thank God it's over.
Angel: It's not over. Who know's who is going to be the next one to attempt to open the Boca del Inferno.
Oz: Well it'll always be on the full moon. That mean's I'm going to miss it every time.
Buffy: Oz that is one thing you should be happy about missing.
Angel: No kidding.
Willow: Ditto.
Giles approaches them.
Giles: (Smiles his cute smile) Hello.
Buffy: What? Let me guess. At home with a cup a tea and a good book got old so you decided to go and hang at the more mod scene?
Giles: (His smile fades and he glares at her) Actually I came to check up on all of you.
Xander approaches.
Xander: Hey guys, whatcha talking about? Hey, G-man new Club scene? I knew you had it in you, you funky party weasel!
Giles: (Glares at him)Don't call me that. I came to talk to them about how last was... well...
Willow: A very long?
Buffy: Very nerve-wracking?
Giles: A very stressful night indeed.
Buffy: That works.
Angel: Xander you are very lucky you weren't on campus last night.
Willow: I already told him that.
Faith approaches.
Faith: Hey everyone. Some night last night, huh Xander? (With a mischeivious smile)
Xander: (Nervously) Well I wouldn't know. You guys wouldn't let me in on the fun. So I'm going to have to take all of your words for it.
Buffy: Hey Xander, we're sorry about that. We just didn't want you getting hurt.
Willow: I swear if anything else was happening last night, I would probably have a heart attack.
Giles: As you all say that word, ditto or something.
Xander: Hey it's OK. I made up my own kind of entertainment last night.
Cordelia approaches.
Cordy: Yeah hanging out with some blonde car freak bimbo all night. That's what I call fun. And no offense Buffy about the blonde thing.
Buffy: (Dryly) None taken. And Xander I really don't think of trying to stop an apocylypse as entertainment.
Cordy: damn you Buffy! Now I'm going to have nightmares for yet another year.
Xander: Oh. Well, if you put it that way. The Hellmouth almost opened last night. You probably wouldn't be standing here and making smart remarks right now if it weren't for the Buffster.
Cordy: Well I at least, have good taste in my mates. I don't like car freaks.
Willow: Well that's kind've putting yourself down, because you used to date... I'll shut up now.
Giles: And what is it about this so-called girl Xander was with last night? Because Xander was with a group of friends last night.
Cordy: No. He was with a girl who was obsessed with driving.
Willow: No Giles is right. He was with some friends. When I was picking up some supplies from the magic store I saw him with his pals. Whoever they were.
Faith: No he was alone. He saved me from one of those girl power demons.
Buffy: Yeah Faith is right. He came by the mansion about something.
Angel: This is very strange. Because I came by the Bronze earlier and saw him with a girl. But then he came by the mansion and he was alone.
They all stare at Xander, who is, at the moment, speechless for once.
Giles: Xander what were you doing in the cemetery?
Willow: And what were you doing at that drug store that was being robbed?
Buffy: And what were you going to ask us at the mansion?
Cordy: And how come all of us saw you with different people in one night?
Faith: It's off the subject, but I can do that.
Xander: Well... do I have to tell the truth?
Everyone: Yes.
Xander: Oh... well is running an option for me?
Everyone: No.
Xander: But I don't want want to give you guys heart attacks and-! (Covers his mouth with his hand)
Buffy: Xander look at me and tell me that nothing was going on last night besides Hellmouth.
Xander: Well lets say there was, but you guys wouldn't even start to believe what I had to say.
Giles: Try me.
Xander: OK. (Look's at the table) That girl ditched me when Jack O' Toole rose his decaying gang buddies from the dead and robbed that store and made a bomb that was right under the library. If it weren't for me you guys would be a pile of ashes by now if it weren't for your's truely. And Buffy the reason I stopped by the mansion was to ask you how to diffuse a bomb. But you and Dead Boy were too busy with your "Days of Our Lives" conversation. (Look's up)
Everyone (Oz and Angel included) were staring at him wide eyed with their mouths haging open.
Xander: Someone say something?
Giles: Xander?
Xander: Yeah Giles?
Giles: (In calm yet angry tone) Now you have the running option.
And he gladly took it... in a hurry.
