Welcome to the Hellmouth + The Harvest
Picking up where the feature film left off, Buffy Summers (Sarah Michelle Gellar) and her mum (Kristine Sutherland) move to Sunnydale, California, for a fresh start, unaware of the evil lurking in this quiet suburb. Somewhat reluctant in her role as the slayer, Buffy quickly makes friends and enemies at her new school. While also meeting her new "Watcher," Giles (Anthony Stewart Head), the mercurial school librarian, her newly assembled team encounters the ever-abundant unearthly creatures in Sunnydale.
Buffy, in an attempt to bring some
normalcy into her complicated life, decides to try out for cheerleader. When she
goes to the big tryout, she meets a quiet girl named Amy. As one girl auditions,
she gets more and more into her routine, and suddenly her hands begin to smoke.
Buffy knocks her to the ground and puts the girl's smoking hands out. Amy tells
Buffy that her mother was a cheerleading star and she feels pressure to make the
squad. When Amy leaves, Willow says it's a lot more than pressure -- she thinks
Amy's mom is a tyrant. Neither Amy nor Buffy is chosen as part of the regular
squad -- both are alternates. Amy is distraught when she is only chosen to be
third alternate -- with Buffy as first alternate.
