It's time for the high school Talent Show. Naturally, RupertGiles gets drafted into organizing it, and the ScoobyGang is also coerced into participating by the new principal. Things go from bad to worse when another participant is found with her heart cut out, and a fellow student who's doing a ventriloquism routine with a dummy, is having headaches. Buffy begins to suspect the student, and then the dummy when the student is found with his brain removed.

Stuff We Learned

  • Ventriloquist dummies give Buffy the wig. ..Uh, they scare her.
  • PrincipalFlutie's replacement, PrincipalSnyder, is a creepy meanie.
  • In the BuffyVerse, human souls can possess inanimate objects, but it's usually not by choice.

Air Quotes With Fingers

  • SID: "You know what they say: once you go wood, nothin's as good!"
  • SNYDER: "'Kids need understanding. Kids are human beings.' That's the kind of woolly-headed, liberal thinking that leads to being eaten."
  • GILES: "A demon is a creature of evil, pure and very simple. A person driven to kill is, is, um, it's more complex."
