With Buffy's attention turned to educating the Potentials on all things slayer, Dawnie is left out of the fold. Willow receives word from the coven that a potential has been residing in Sunnydale and does a spell to locate her. When the spell bursts THROUGH Dawn, everyone is shook by the fact that Dawn might be a potential! Faced with the harsh reality that her life is inexorably changed, Dawn pops out for a nighttime stroll and is determined to protect a fellow student who was attacked by a vamp.

Now that the First has officially set its sights on removing the Slayer line in totality and formally waged war with Oogles the Ubervamp, the gang goes into recon & research mode. The Hellmouth (and the Summers' Residence by extension) are LOUSY with potential slayers-- with the emphasis on LOUSY because the amount of naysaying going on behind Buffy's back has KENNEDY looking like the best in class! Giles and Anya go on a walkabout in a hell dimension to get some intel as Buffy plots a way to give the potentials a wake up call AND position herself to get Spike out of Ooogles' cavern and into a place of safety.

Rewatch, Listen & Laugh as Mikie offends all of Britain, Ash fixates on a Lizzie Maguire character, and Alaina has a genuinely good reaction to a pivotal Spuffy moment!
