Xander and Anya are playing scrabble in the magic shop as Giles is taking inventory.
"B. Q. R. T. O. A. V. biqurtoav," announced anya. " That's triple word and a fifty point bonus for using all my letters"
Anya claps gleefully.
"I so love this game." she squeals.
"Wait a minute," questions xander "What the hell is a biqerta.. whatever that is. That can't be a word."
"It the slime of a tobakra demon. It supposedly is really good in soup." replied Anya.
"I give up" replied xander " I can't fight demon slime."
Xander drops his tiles on the board and gets up.
"You can't give up, I haven't won yet. If you give up before I win then I can't win. If I can't win then I can't gloat. If I can't gloat I can't dance around you and do my NA NA NA NA NA NA dance while I stick my tongue out."
"As much as I would enjoy seeing that I don't think I can compete with someone who knows different forms of demon slime." said xander.
Giles hearing xanders argument jumped into the conversation.
"Demon slime?" asked Giles.
"Anya is beating me at scrabble with demon slime." said xander pointing at the board.
"I've never heard of the word." said Giles.
"Of course you have. You must have forgotten. I have heard that men of your advanced years are prone to have memory lapses. I am sure with a little ginkoba you will remember right away and then xander can keep playing and I can win." anya chirped in.
"No I think I would remember something like demon slime and I am not that old anya", said Giles.
"Yes it is because I said it is and if it isn't a word I don't get a triple word bonus. I also don't get a 50 point bonus for using all my letters. I need the bonus so I can gloat. I like gloating," said anya.
"You cheated!", shouted xander.
"I did not cheat, I just manipulated the letters in a way as to give me lots of points so I can win," anya replied.
"No anya that's cheating and if you cheat you automatically lose. If you lost that means I won. If I win that means..." xander starts to say a big smile comes across his face.
"No don't do it!", anya warned.
Xander starts to dance around sticking his tongue out " NA NA NA NA NA NA", he teases.
"No I wanted to do the NA NA NA NA NA dance. That's not fair," pouted anya.
"Xander in all the years I've know you I am so proud of how much you have matured over the years,", replied Giles sarcastically.
"NA NA NA NA NA NA", xander said to Giles sticking out his tongue.
"Yes quite. I have to get back to my inventory", said Giles walking away from the dancing xander.
As xander was doing his `dance' for both Giles and anya, an elderly man was watching them from outside the window.
"It's her." he said "I've finally found her and she has a boyfriend. I can finally get my revenge"
The elderly man removed a ratty glove from his right hand and decided to stake out the magic shop. He sat on the curb and waited for anya and xander to come outside. In his present condition, the elderly man looked like a simple bum. He was anything but that and he knew that if he could hold onto the ruse he could trick the demon's young lover.
"All I need is one touch," he whispered to himself "One touch and the demon will know the kind of suffering she has put me through for all these years"
Meanwhile Giles returns to his inventory inside the magic shop.
"Anya have you see my aphrodisiac idol of astarte. I can't seen to find it," said Giles.
"The love idol." commented xander. "It really works pretty good"
"You took the idol home with you," he said to anya.
"Well just temporarily. I wanted to try it out with xander and yes it really does work. Me and xander had the longest..."
"OK anya you don't have to go into details. The idol isn't a toy. You could have broken it," said Giles.
"It's not broken xander said it was just really soar because we... OH you mean the idol. It's OK it's in the car." said anya.
"Can you get it please", said Giles.
"Do I have to", replied Anya.
"How do I put this delicately. YES", said Giles.
"OK, don't be such a meanie", replied anya
"Don't worry I'll come with you anya " replied xander.
As soon as xander and anya walked out of the shop they saw the bum sitting on the curb.
"Eww a smelly man is sitting in front of our shop," said anya.
"Please spare some change," he said to xander.
Xander reaches into his pocket.
"What are you doing. You're not going to give him money are you. He's not going to buy anything or make anything or sell anything. This is capitalism you can't just hand him over money. It's It's un-American." said Anya. "If you want to hand out money you can give it to me."
Xander smiles at Anya.
"I always thought compassion was a part of the American way. Helping you fellow man and all" xander continued. "Anyway if you don't give him anything, he will stay here and scare away customers"
"Scare away customers?", anya questioned. "That's not good. If he scares away customers they won't come into the store to browse. If they don't browse they won't buy anything. If they don't buy anything they won't give me any money. If they don't give me money then I'll have no money to fondle. I like fondling money xander. I need to fondle money. Quickly pay the smelly man to go away so I can get back to the money"
Xander smiled at her again.
"I always knew you had a compassionate side", he said pulling out the dollar bill from his pocket.
The man looked between Xander and Anya then stars at Anya..
"Anyanka," he moans out and grabs Xander's wrist. Xander immediately drops to the ground.
"What happened. What did you do to him." Anya shouted.
"You do not remember me Demon." Shouted the old man starting to rise.
Giles was holding the Tiki Idol of Bramma when he heard the shouts outside the shop. He held onto the idol as he went outside to investigate. Anya meanwhile had just recognized the man who had harmed Xander.
"No it can't be you", shouted Anya.
"What is going on", Said Giles walking out of the shop "Oh my god xander"
The elderly man leaned towards Giles.
"Giles watch out," screamed Anya grabbing the idol from Giles' arm and slamming it over the elderly man's head.
"What the. Did this man attack xander", Giles questioned anya seeing the person lying face down. Knocked out by anya's blow to his head. "who is he?"
Giles went to turn over the man to see his face.
"I said don't touch him or you'll die!!", screamed Anya.
"What are you taking about?", said Giles.
"This is a man I cursed when I was a demon. Anyone he touches goes into a coma and dies within five days" said Anya.
"And xander." said Giles.
"He grabbed his hand when he went to give him a dollar. He's going to die and it's my fault", said Anya tears starting to well up in her eyes. "I killed him Giles. I killed Xander"
Anya started sobbing heavily and Giles hugged her trying to soothe her.
"It will be OK Anya we will find a cure. I'm sure my books or maybe something else can be done. We just need some time. You call the ambulance and I'll give Buffy a call. We'll work this out together" said Giles.
"It's no use." said Anya still sobbing. "You can't break the spell unless you stopped me right after I performed it. That was how the wish spell cordy made was broken. You made me human and the last spell I casted was broken. Buffy can't help"
"I won't accept that" said Giles looking down at xander " I can't accept it. there is a way. There has to be"
