Thornkirk Productions Presents…

Shannon is shown directly from above as she is slowly pulled into a CT scan machine. A grid of green lasers plays over her face.

Buffy (V.O.): “The whole official line at these things is all about how I shared the power with all these girls and we’re all part of this shared destiny and it’s a beautiful sisterhood and girl power and blah blah blah. And I do believe that, I do. But I feel…responsible.”

Black Out

Faith and Buffy sit across from each other at a fancy restaurant. “How is this your issue?” Faith asks. “Or even mine, for that matter?”

A woman in a graveyard moves lightning fast in a fighting, dusting two vampires in quick succession of each other.

Maddie Allen puts out her hand to stop a woman from closing her door. “Your boss hired me. Then got, not just murdered, but extra-murdered.”

The woman says, “I can’t talk to you,” and closes the door in her face.

Jen looks out over a city. “Slayers have to be perfect,” she says, “or people die.”

A young hispanic woman laughs, a little crazily. Then she says, “Dios mio, it worked!”

Grace takes a sip of a mug of tea, then turns to Xander, “Buffy’s done a wonderful job. You should be proud of her.”

“Every day since 1997,” Xander replies.

A demon opens a door and looks down at a bag sitting on her doorstep. She opens the bag to find that it’s full of money.

Buffy speaks to a blond woman with glasses in front of a computer. “What if she’s doing this for her own reasons?” Buffy asks.

“Meaning what?” the woman protests. “That she’s not on our side?”

Shannon jumps and wraps her legs around a demon’s neck, but he pushes her into the ceiling, making a dent.

Unidentified (V.O.): “Anything great that anyone has ever done has required sacrifices.”

Rowena, near tears, throws a dish towel down in the sink.

Shannon (V.O.): “Don’t say anything. You don’t know who’s listening.’

Buffy runs as fast as she can down a sidewalk between flowering trees.

Faith (V.O.): “If you’re gonna see this through, be careful.”

Buffy keeps running, pure determination on her face.

Faith (V.O.): “If you start messing with the owners of this country, hell, the owners of the world, prepare for blowback…and not just for you, for anyone you love.”

Buffy is on her knees in a crowd of people, holding a fallen body and screaming for help. No one pays her any attention.

Unidentified (V.O.) Male: “We are currently testing a drug regimen that will, yes, allow slayers to keep their powers beyond the age of thirty.” 

Shannon rides on the back of a motorcycle driven by someone else. Over her shoulder, we can see another woman jumping from the top of buildings from one side of the street to the other in the background.

Buffy and Faith are sitting across from each other at the restaurant. “Are you scared?” Buffy asks.

“No,” Faith says, “but you should be.”
