I watched Buffy The Vampire Slayer back in the day but I thought I'd start from the beginning so I watched the pilot episode. The point of this episode is to just show the background of the people and the setting of the show. The episode introduces all the main characters and the background of Buffy. She came from California after being kicked out of her old school for burning down the gym and has moved to Sunnydale. She is known as the chosen vampire slayer but she just wants to live a normal life without anyone knowing. She meets Cordelia, Xander, Giles, and Willow. Giles is the new librarian that knows all about vampires and knows who Buffy is. On the way to a party Buffy meets a random guy in an alley and he tells her about "the harvest." Buffy ends up hunting down a vampire who has taken Willow to the cemetery. She kills one vampire but a stronger one comes and saves the girl vampire. Buffy and the guy vampire fight it out but the episode ends with the vampire on top of Buffy in a coffin. Then Willow and Xander are surrounded by a bunch of vampires in the middle of the cemetery while trying to escape.
"The harvest" is the main problem in this episode. Buffy doesn't know what that is and neither does Giles, and the fact that Buffy learned about this from a stranger is even more confusing. You never find out anything more about this mystery man but it is kind of assumed that since he warned Buffy about it then he must not be a vampire because a vampire wouldn't tell the slayer something that seems quite important to them.
