The next morning, Cordelia and Gunn meet in the lobby. Cordelia has dark rings beneath her eyes.
"Could you sleep at all?", asks Cordelia.
"After that day? Man, I could hardly keep my eyes open long enough to make to my bedroom."
"Lucky you", says Cordelia. "I just couldn't stop thinking... and Willow didn't return to her room all night. I think she's still with Xander. That must be rough on her... losing both her girlfriend and her best friend at the same day."
"Her girlfriend?", Gunn responds, amazed. "So she's..."
Cordelia ignores Gunn and takes the stairs down to the cellar, where they put Xander's body. Entering the dimly lit room, she finds Willow, sunken down into a chair and apparently passed out. The table next to her - the table where hey had put Xander's body - is empty. Alarmed, Cordelia looks around. They did not find any bite marks on Xander. Still, could it be...?
"Morning, Cordy!" Suddenly she hears a voice from behind her. She spins around on the spot and faces the person she was looking for.
