Buffy, Giles and others in “The Puppet Show”

What about the whole "it's a demon" theory?

I'm looking into that, but my investigation is somewhat... hampered by our life in the theater.

Uh, priority check, Giles? (holding up her hands) Talent show, murder.

Yeah, we can't do the talent show, it's unthinkable. I'm not able to think it!

Principal Snyder is watching us all very closely. Now, if he chooses, he can make all our lives extremely difficult. A Slayer cannot afford that! We will find this murderer, but in the meantime... the show must go on.

This is so unfair.
