Scenes of Xander's future
The Old Man and Xander enter. The room is dusty and small. Taxidermied animal heads line the walls. The Old Man extends the glass orb towards Xander.
Xander: What is it?
Old Man: It’s something magic. From the future. Take it.
Xander: It’s warm.
The Old Man nods. Xander is beginning to believe.
Xander (cont.): Is this something from Willow?
Old Man: Well, yes. Willow from the future. Close your eyes.
After a second of decision, Xander obeys. As he does, the orb begins to emit a bright beam of light which shines onto his forehead.
There’s a flash of white light and we are in:
Scene 14 Int. Den – The Future
2025. A claustrophobic den. A widescreen tv displays a football game. Assorted beer cans and bags of chips are spread around a barca-lounger.
And in the chair itself, slumps Xander, one hand tucked just under the waistband of his pants. To us Xander looks his current age and he appears to be wearing his tuxedo. But he looks different too, disheveled and surly.
He burps. Scratches himself a bit and then uses the same hand to grab a handful of chips.
Xander (a bellow): Anya!
Bored he flips through the channels, pauses on a soft-porn channel.

Scene 14 Cont.
Xander (cont): Anya! Bring me a beer, will you?
No response.
Just then, a 10 year old boy, Josh, chases an 8 year old girl, Sarah, into the room.
The kids are wild-looking, their mouths ringed with Kool-Aid stains. The boy is wearing tube socks, underwear and a turtleneck. The girl is dressed but has blue eyeshadow all over her eyelids. And her ears are distinctly FLOPPY!
Sarah (shrill): Get the hell away from me! Dad, Josh is teasing me.
Josh (taunting): You’re part demon! You’re part demon!
Sarah lets out a yell as they run out another door and into the hall. Xander ignores them, flips back to the football game.
Xander: Anya!
Suddenly, a 40ish woman fills the doorway, her hand on her hip, her expression cold.
Anya: What?
The woman is Anya. She’s wearing a Mary Kay uniform and has a purse over her shoulder. She’s put on some weight and she’s wearing a lot of makeup, but the biggest change is in her eyes. She looks like she’s given up.
Xander: I need a beer.
Anya: It’s not even two.
Xander: So? My back hurts.
Anya looks at him.

Scene 14 Cont.
Xander: What, you think I like being on disability? You think I like lying here, feeling like a worthless—
Anya fishes in her bag, pulling out her car keys.
Anya: I gotta get going. I don’t want to be late.
Xander: Oh, please, go. Don’t let me interrupt your Capitalist strivings.
Anya turns and exits.
Xander (cont): Don’t let me stop you from getting your stupid pink car!
Xander looks back at the TV, flicks through a few more channels.
Another bright white flash and we’re in:
Scene 15 Int. Chain Italian Restaurant – Night
2035.
Xander, still his modern day age, still in the tuxedo (though now the tie is untied) sits in a booth. With him is a 50 something Anya and their two kids, Josh, 21, has a shaved head, and Sarah, 18, is really skinny and clearly part demon—her floppy ears are even more evident now.
Xander, Anya, and Josh tuck into their enormous plates of pasta in silence. Sarah picks at her food unhappily. Xander slugs down a glass of cheap red wine. Anya looks at him. He looks back.
Xander: What?
Anya shakes her head like, ‘nothing’. Xander looks at his family, addresses them as a whole:
Xander: So? What’s with the code of silence? Somebody say something.
Josh: I need to borrow some money.
Xander: I meant, let’s talk. We’re a family, aren’t we?
Sarah snorts.
Josh: Dad, it’s grievous. I’ve got a situation.
Sarah: He knocked up a –
Josh: Cut it, Sarah. You freak.
Anya: Josh, Sarah! Stop it. Can’t we just enjoy a nice dinner out?
Josh rolls his eyes.
Sarah: Oh yeah, this place is really nice. You guys know I don’t eat wheat.
Josh: You don’t eat anything. Demonic freak.
Sarah: Dad! Make him cut it!
Xander gives a mean look to Anya.
Xander: Maybe you should talk to your mother about that.
Anya: Xander! You’ve had too much wine.
Xander: Have I? I’m just saying maybe you should talk to your daughter—
Sarah: I hate you guys!
Sarah is on her feet, her face red and livid as she screams at Xander and Anya.
Sarah (cont): And I know you’re not my real dad! And I hate you, I hate you both! I wish you’d die!
She storms away from the table.
Josh pushes his plate away.
Josh: This sucks.
Another flash of white light and we’re in:
Scene 16 Int. Old People’s Apartment – Night
2045.
Xander (still in the tux, still the same age) and Anya, 60s, sit at opposite ends of a kitchen table, eating their dinner.
The sound of silverware on china.
Anya uncaps a bottle of pills that sits beside her plate. And swallows them noisily.
Xander looks at Anya, waits for her to look at him. She won’t.
Xander: Was this….a mistake?
A flash of white light and we’re back in the:
Scene 17 Int. Elk’s Lodge – Trophy Room – Day
Xander stands, holding the orb as before. The orb stops projecting light onto his forehead. He opens his eyes.
He looks at the Old Man, his future self. The old man touches his shoulder.
Old Man: I think you know what you have to do.
The old man exits the room. Xander stands there. Alone, shattered.
