Xander falls asleep when he’s supposed to be watching Werewolf Oz, and next morning a student, Jeff, is found mauled.

Buffy is officially dating Scott Hope, and she starts seeing a school counsellor (a condition for her return to school). When she patrols she stumbles across a feral Angel, and takes him to the mansion (locking him up for safety), but tells no-one about it. Two of Scott’s friends, Debbie and Pete, argue and Pete becomes a Mr Hyde-like beast. It was Pete who killed Jeff, and now Mr Platt the counsellor too. Buffy and Willow get the truth from a terrified Debbie. Pete thinks Oz fancies Debbie, and they both fight in monster form. Faith tranquillises Oz but Pete escapes. Buffy finds Debbie dead, then an escaped Angel arrives and kills Pete.

Review:
One of the weakest episodes of the season, with the Jekyll/Hyde plot thread handled with uncharacteristic clumsiness.

Best line: “Buffy?” (Angel’s first post-hell word.)

Trivia: Pete’s transformation mixes in odd elements of Jacob’s Ladder (head shaking thing) and a smidgen of The Incredible Hulk ‘you wouldn’t like me when I’m angry...’.

Pop culture reference: “Every guy from Manimal down to Mr ‘I love The English Patient’ has beast in him.” (Faith.)

Pop Culture reference: “I can handle the Oz Full Monty” (Xander.)

Presumably Angel was in the same hell dimension Buffy visited in Anne - he’s certainly been tortured for hundreds of years.
