Beauty and The Beasts
It's the start of a full moon cycle, so the gang is guarding Oz in his cage in the Library. When Xander falls asleep during his watch, however, Oz in his furry form escapes and a student turns up mauled to death in the woods near-by. All signs seem to point to a werewolf attack, but another possible suspect emerges when Buffy discovers Angel has returned from Hell, finding him with blood on his lips and acting animal like. Both Oz and Angel are cleared when a similar attack on the school psychologist occurs during the day. Linking both of the deceased to Debbie, a new friend of Buffy's who happens to have an abusive boyfriend, Pete. Buffy and Willow continue to ask about her problems, and they finally discover that Pete is not a normal Sunnydale student, but a jeckyl and Hide killing machine. Focusing his jealousy on Oz, who he'd seen talking to Debbie, he makes the mistake of confronting him, just before sundown. As Oz' werewolf within takes over, Pete flees the library to the maintenance shed where he and Angel scuffle-until Angel kills him, as he is still animal like. Buffy keeps his return a secret as she does not know why or how he got back or even if he is comlpetely good or bad. She chains him up at the mansion. There is also a growing fling between Buffy and Scott Hope, but nothing major as Angel is back, and Buffy cannot deny true love even when he is in the shape that he is.
