Never Kill A Boy On The First Date

In which Buffy faces the dilemma facing all modern women - can you save the world and still have a social life?

Official back-of-box synopsis:

Buffy starts dating a classmate, but is interrupted by a vampire plot to lead her to Hell.

From the old WB Buffy website:

A CRANKY SLAYER IS A CARELESS SLAYER - Buffy tries to maintain some semblance of a normal teenage social life by opting for a hot date instead of helping Giles protect Sunnydale from a violent vampire prophecy. As she's blinded by love, Buffy ignores the signs of the dark forces aligning against her. Meanwhile, while Buffy's being romanced, The Master is plotting her demise by invoking the wrath of the "Anointed One," a great warrior vampire who is The Master's most powerful weapon against the slayer.
