BuffySummers Buffy? faces her biggest, most challenging battle ever - facing off against a {{God}} to save her sister. As {{Glory}} prepares DawnSummers Dawn? to unleash {{Hell}} on Earth, things have never looked quite so bleak. That is until {{Anya}} comes up with a cunning plan to use the DragonSphere? and TrollHammer? to defeat Glory.
While Dawn remains helpless, tied to the top of the tower waiting to die, Buffy (and the BuffyBot) and Glory go head to head in a final confrontation. Buffy uses the TrollHammer? to overpower Glory, who suddenly morphs back into {{Ben}}. Although Buffy cannot take his life, RupertGiles Giles? is on hand to finish the job in a brief emergence of his dark side. {{Spike}} tries to save Dawn but is stabbed by {{Doc}} and thrown from the tower. Buffy arrives just in time and pushes him to his death. But unfortunately, Dawn's {{Blood}} has already started to open the portal. Just as Dawn prepares to sacrifice herself, Buffy realises that Dawn isn't the only one capable of preventing the dimensional walls from crumbling, and she throws herself into the portal.
