ACT II
INT. JORDY'S HOSPITAL ROOM
Xander and Lucy duck under the police tape at the door and look
around the room. The room is completely trashed. Xander lets go
with a long slow whistle of amazement.
LUCY
You're telling me, bud.
XANDER
Did the police find anything?
LUCY
They took away his personal effects and they
did that whole CSI finger-printy-swabby
thing. Do you know what you're looking for?
XANDER
Haven't a clue.
LUCY
Then what do you expect...
Xander touches the bed and...
INT. JORDY'S HOSPITAL ROOM - VISION
A blurry vision of Jordy chanting fervently, a charm held
tightly in his hand.
INT. JORDY'S HOSPITAL ROOM - NORMAL
Xander grabs the bed to brace himself. Lucy grabs on to Xander
to keep him from falling over.
XANDER
LUCY
What happened?
XANDER
Saw the kid doing the chanty thing.
LUCY
Like a sea-shanty?
XANDER
No. Chanting. Why would he be doing a sea-shanty?
LUCY
I don't know. This is way out of my normal
frame of reference.
Xander spots something between the bed and end table. He picks
it up and holds it in his hand.
XANDER
Huh.
LUCY
What is it?
XANDER
Don't know. He was holding it when he was
chanting though.
LUCY
Okay, can't these visions of yours just
like... lay everything out on the line so we
don't have to do any guess work?
Xander walks over to the window, which is now boarded up.
XANDER
Yeah, I wish it would work that way.
Xander touches the window sill and...
INT. JORDY'S HOSPITAL ROOM - VISION
A blurry vision of fur, large teeth and the sound of glass
breaking.
INT. JORDY'S HOSPITAL ROOM - NORMAL
Xander jumps back as if shocked.
LUCY
Now what?
XANDER
Do you have a wall calendar someplace?
LUCY
At the nurses station. Why?
Xander dashes out of the room.
LUCY
What?!
INT. NURSES STATION
Xander pulls the calendar off the wall and checks it.
XANDER
Yep. That's it.
LUCY
What? What is it?
Xander's cell rings. He picks it up.
XANDER
(answering)
Harris. Liv? Hey... What? He did?
LUCY
What did he do?
XANDER
Did you get him?
LUCY
Did she get him?
Xander shakes his head "no".
LUCY
Who did she not get?
XANDER
(on phone)
It's okay. I know what's going on. Meet me
at my place in fifteen minutes.
LUCY
She's not skipping school.
LIV
(screaming on the phone)
I'm not skipping school!!
Xander holds the phone back from his ear wincing.
XANDER
Fine. Meet me after school. Bye.
LUCY
What's going on?
XANDER
I know what happened to Jordy. C'mon.
LUCY
Will you please tell me what the hell is
going on here?
INT. XANDER'S FIREHOUSE - TRAINING ROOM
Liv, Maya, Lucy and Pongo are congregated around the room.
XANDER
Jordy's a werewolf.
LIV
Are you sure about that?
PONGO
It is certain!
LIV
I wasn't asking you.
XANDER
Trust me, one of my best friends from high
school was a werewolf. I know the signs.
Irritability. Aggressive. Increased
strength. Cattle mutilations...
LUCY
But his leg was in traction...
XANDER
Maybe during a full moon, the healing factor
is increased considerably.
PONGO
Signs point to yes.
MAYA
But he practically wolfed out in the middle
of the day at school.
XANDER
My friend had that happened to him. He may
be using a potion of certain herbs along
with certain Tibetan chants to keep him from
changing into a wolf. If he falls off the
plan or is under extreme stress, he may not
be able to control his changes.
Maya hits Liv on the shoulder.
MAYA
That's what he was doing at school today.
That wasn't drugs his grandmother was going
ape over, it was the stuff he uses for the
potion. His grandmother took his stash away
and he was looking for some in his locker.
LIV
I don't have to kill him do I?
PONGO
Definitely Not.
Liv gives pongo a glare. Xander pulls out a handheld tranq gun
and tosses it to her.
XANDER
Just shoot him with one of these darts and
he'll sleep for two hours.
LIV
I've never used this before.
XANDER
Try it out.
Liv takes aim at a target and pulls the trigger. Unfortunately
the dart hits Pongo dead center in his body. Pongo goes nuts
and starts running around like a maniac waving his arms.
XANDER
Let's try it again.
LIV
That's okay. I hit what I was aiming for.
Pongo stops and drops to the floor unconscious. Everyone looks
down at Pongo.
LUCY
You can tranquilize a puppet?
EXT. CAPE KENNETH - THE WOODS
It's night of course and the full moon is out. Liv and Xander
are out on patrol, tranq guns out and at the ready.
XANDER
Whatever you do, don't get bit.
LIV
Thanks. Like I haven't heard that in the
movies only a dozen times.
VOICE(OS)
Then you know that the only thing that will
kill it is silver bullets
ANGLE ON:
CAIN, the werewolf hunter from Phases (BTVS Season 2, episode
27) steps out of the forest.
CAIN
Which only I seem to be using. Don't you
kiddies know it's dangerous out here after
dark?
XANDER
I know who you are, and this is our
business.
CAIN
If you know who I am, then you know to stay
out of my way.
In the distance, we hear a howl of the werewolf.
XANDER
Go!
Liv takes off after the sound. Cain goes after her only to have
Xander tackle him. Cain falls to the ground and jumps up to
face Xander. He throws a punch, which Xander blocks. Xander
returns the punch, only to have Cain grab his hand.
CAIN
You sure you want to tangle with me, boy?
XANDER
Not really.
Xander shoots him with the tranq gun. Cain is out like a light.
XANDER
Say good-night, Gracie.
EXT. CAPE KENNETH - THE WOODS
Liv charges through the woods and follows the howling until she
trips over a log and the gun goes flying. She lands on her face
knocking her sport goggles loose.
LIV
Crap!
Liv repositions the goggles, stands up and is wiping off the
dirt when she hears a low guttural growl coming right behind
her. She turns and faces the werewolf.
LIV
Oh shii...
The werewolf barks and jumps at Liv. Liv gives it a hearty kick
and runs for her gun. The werewolf shakes off the kick and goes
after her. Liv dives for her gun as the werewolf charges. She
points the gun at the werewolf, pulls the trigger...
Ahh... darn it. It jams.
Just as the werewolf is about to pounce, a second roar is
heard. The werewolf turns its head and is tackled by (yes...) a
second werewolf. Liv stands in amazement as the two werewolves
fight each other.
Clearing her head, she ejects the ammo clip, punches it back in
and cocks the weapon and starts to take careful aim.
Just as the second werewolf clobbers the first with a
resounding punch, Liv pulls the trigger and shoots two darts
into the second werewolf. The first werewolf, damaged by the
punch runs off yelping like a hurt dog. The second werewolf
just stands and looks down at the darts in its chest.
ANGLE ON:
Xander runs up to Liv out of breath.
XANDER
Liv? What happened?
LIV
There's two werewolves!
XANDER
Two?
LIV
(pointing)
I got this one!
Xander looks up to see where she is pointing.
XANDER
Holy Mary, keep on burning.
ANGLE ON:
The second werewolf is no longer there. Instead there a naked
Oz (From the waist up only. Get your mind out of the gutter)
looking at the darts in his chest. He pulls the darts
from his chest.
OZ
Huh.
XANDER
(confused)
Oz?
OZ
(dazed & confused)
Xander?
LIV
(also confused)
Who's Oz?
Oz's eyes roll back in his head and he falls on his face.
