The "Intervention" scene

INT. LIBRARY - DAY The next day. The Library doors slam open and Buffy saunters in, feeling good and saucy.

BUFFY (sing-songy): You'll never guess what I got...

Buffy stops cold. We see what she sees: Giles, Willow, Xander, Cordelia, and Oz all sit in a row. Staring right at Buffy. Stone-faced. This is an intervention.

XANDER: Angel is alive. And you lied about it to every person in this room.

Buffy closes her eyes. Busted.

XANDER: So when were you planning to tell us, Buff? After he kills somebody? Hey - maybe one of us!

BUFFY: Xander...

XANDER: Because there's no way we could see it coming.

WILLOW: Let Buffy talk!

CORDELIA: Why? So she can explain how helping a killer is somehow not bad?

BUFFY: It's more complicated than that. Angel's changed. Back. He's himself again.

WILLOW: Himself - that means good, right?

XANDER: Great. He's good. For how long?

OZ: Let her talk, we'll find out.

CORDELIA: I'm confused. He's good, he's bad... if he's gonna flip-flop, isn't it just a matter of time before he goes psycho killer?

BUFFY: Look. I know what Angel's done. But I also know he's been to Hell. I don't know why he's back, but I know... I can feel... it's for a reason.

XANDER: Yeah. To kill again. And again. And again.

WILLOW: Xander - shut up!

CORDELIA: No, he's right!

XANDER: Yank your head out of the sand!

OZ: Don't talk to her like that!

XANDER: Or what? (stands) What are we standing around for? I say we take the Mansion first daylight and kill Angel before he kills us.

BUFFY: He's not killing anybody.

OZ: Death penalty? Who's gonna pull the trigger? You?

XANDER: Damn right I will!

He gets up to leave. Giles stops him, finally speaks:

GILES: You'll do no such thing! Watcher bylaws are clear in a case like this: Angel is not responsible...

XANDER; He is responsible!

GILES: ...For anything he's done under the influence of...

Xander knocks the book from Gile's hands and slams him up against the wall.

XANDER: He killed Jenny!

Giles instantly slams Xander back into the opposite wall.

GILES: Don't you evoke the name Jenny Calendar to suit you ends of vengeance! D you think I've forgotten? Your hatred of Angel is nothing compared to mine. But we do not kill in hatred.

XANDER: Speak for yourself.

Xander roughly frees himself. Stares them all down.

XANDER (continuing; to Buffy): Next time he kills somebody you love? You tell me how it's complicated.

Xander grabs his jacked off the back of the chair, knocking the chair clattering to the ground, punches open the Library doors and storms out. Beat.
