Part 37 Homecoming

Exterior, Sidewalk, by the former HS. A stone bench with some vegetation behind it against the night sky.
Cordelia in her blue dress stands behind the bench on the left. Xander is in front of the bench also on the left.
Oz is behind the bench on the right behind Willow in her yellow coat and Buffy in red. A colorful bunch for what they just went through. They’re looking ahead in the direction of the blown up school.
On the sidewalk in front of them, a beaten up and partially charred senior yearbook and a stake. Goodbye Sunnydale High School.

Part 34 Gingerbread

A: Exterior, HS Campus. Amid some foliage, Buffy’s now with Giles. He has a handle in his hands and is pushing it down toward another black box with wiring coming out of it on a stump before him. Buffy watches.

B: Interior, Library. The lighting is very red. The area by the table is exploding into fire as the Mayor Demon Snake is frozen before it.

(The fire is a graphic of roiling flames and smoke and some longer sharp flames.)

C: Exterior, Sunnydale HS front doors. The lighting is very yellow. The double doors are being pushed open by a flowering fireball (flowers) of yellow, orange and red. Above them more sharp flames and roiling smoke rise above the doors. The high window also reflecting and emitting flames rising into the sky.

Part 33 Dead Man’s Party

Part 32 The Pack

A: Exterior, HS Plaza, pavement. A shot from behind Percy and the other vampire fighters, back toward the base of the stairs. The graduates from above are all descending down the stairs en masse, running right into the fight on the ground.
It’s chaos. We can see Percy diving forward with a huge bat and Student Kit advancing on Vampire Jay-C with an axe. The rest is just a mass of people and vampires intermingled.

B: Exterior, HS Plaza, pavement. Top down shot of one side of the stairs. Xander is in the crowd heading down the steps. Jonathan is down and has fallen or jumped on Vampire R2-D2. Beside him, Angel is grabbing for Vampire Blu.

thewitnessaria@thewitnessaria· Jul 15

Part 31 School Hard

A: Exterior, HS Plaza. Looking at the top row of the riser from the back. Oz and Students C-3PO, FLO, R4-I9, G-G, K-3PO and Chopper are not looking towards the Demon Snake. They’re looking back down the stairs instead. And they’re holding bows with the orange tipped arrows we saw before. The metal barrel we saw is uncapped and flames are visible. Two of the archers are dipping their arrows in the fire.

B: Exterior, Stairs and pavement below. At the bottom of the stairs is a group of Vampires (Blu, PZ, Rex, IRRI, Bucket, K-2SO, Jay-C, FA-7, R1, R7-D4, R2-D2, Frell, IG-86, G8-R3, and 4-LOM) all beginning to climb. But Vampire R3-T2 has fallen over with an arrow in the chest and is aflame. Nice shot!

C: Exterior, HS Plaza. Looking at the platform from the left now. The bottom rows of the riser are emptying out. Larry is no longer firing the flamethrower. He’s lying on the sidewalk, unmoving.
Mayor Demon Snake has knocked over the decorative arch and grabbed Snyder by the feet, pulling him to his mouth. Buffy is by the platform now.

D: Exterior, Stairs. A high angle shot from over the stairs onto the pavement below. The Vampires have all stopped climbing the stairs and spun around.
Flanking them from behind is another group of students consisting of Percy, Students SM-33, OOM-9, Lance, Kit, 3B, Archy, R2-C2, Gonky, DL-X2, A-WED, R3-PO, and T-bot, along with Angel and Wesley. They’re all armed with stakes, cudgels, and sharp implements.

Part 30 Reptile Boy

A: Exterior, HS Plaza, sunny day. Same shot as before with Snyder, but now the area is filled with people. On and behind the red and yellow platform is a line of Teachers (CB-23, Char, Ralph G., Eve, Bee, Huyang, SP-4, R4-G9, BB-9E, L3-37, D-O, DD-13, ALS, DA-DUM, and Tog) including Mr. Miller and Principal Snyder. At the podium stands Mayor Richard Wilkins III, in a brown suit and red tie.
The riser in front of him is full of students in maroon graduation gowns and caps. We’re looking over them from the back. There’s a capped metal barrel of some sort in the top row between Students Dooby and R4-P17.
We can also see Student Remy and Larry lying down out of sight under the riser with some sort of equipment and a container with orange tipped arrows in it.

B: Exterior, HS Plaza, suddenly dark, the sun gone. Same angle. The platform is now empty, except for the space where the human Mayor stood that is now filled with the front part of Mayor Demon Snake. We can see the snake body going back through the courtyard and curving up the coral stairs. (Played by King, Viper, and Thry.)
Most of the snake is greenish pink opalescent scales going back in a snake shape. Where King is in the head, the scales are a hood over him, two of his black sensors peeking out, a red forked tongue extending. Kings appendages are partially covered in more pinkish and blue scales, extending below the snake body.
(It’s a demon snake, which I consider a good excuse as to why it’s not just snake shaped but has occasional appendages along it.)(It’s not like the CGI snake in the show was so hot either.)
Anyway, the Teachers are all sprawled in the courtyard behind the platform, except for Snyder, who is almost standing, leaning back against the base of the decorative arch and staring at the demon.

C: Exterior, HS Plaza. Reverse shot. High angle looking past the top of the Mayor Demon Snake’s head. The riser is still full of Students, but now they’ve shed their graduation gowns. And we can see they were all wearing weapons and crosses under their gowns.
We can see Xander, Cordelia, Harmony, and Jonathan in the crowd. Buffy is on the right with Willow. Students RD-3, R2-B1, JN-66, Shep, and N0-AH are in the front row with Willow, and all are pointing crossbows and spearguns at the Demon Snake.

(Other Students pictured: R2-Q5, R2-T0, Mik, Baus, Virty, R7, G2-4T, P-100, GNK!, Toojay, R4-H5, R4-M9, Blacky, R4-P17, Dooby, R3-T7, Leefive)

D: Exterior, HS Plaza. We’re looking at Mayor Demon Snake from the right side of the riser at a slightly high angle. Now in addition to the weapons aimed at him from the front row, we also see Larry standing by the platform pointing a flamethrower at the Demon Snake. Part of another flamethrower is visible on the left but Student Remy isn’t in the shot. Snyder continues to be immobile and staring.
