Giles: Thank heavens you're home.
Buffy: Yup! Not at the dance. Not with my friends. Not with a life. What are you doing here? I thought we were gonna meet at the museum to find the bodyguard.
Giles: No, he's already been found. In a school restroom. Mummified.
Buffy: Okay, I don't get it. Why would the mummy kill her own bodyguard?
Giles: Well, I've cross-referenced, and, uh, I've looked at the pictograms anew. He was a guard alright. But it was his job to insure that the mummy didn't awaken and escape.
Buffy: So, Ampata translated wrong.
Giles: Perhaps.
