Synopsis[edit | edit source]

A flame from the past is haunting Spike's present, and wreaking havoc in Las Vegas, which is already pretty overrun with demons and vampires and your garden variety sins and sinners. But nothing is never that simple when Drusilla is involved, and a new player is about to make things very… difficult for Spike and company.^[1]

Continuity[edit | edit source]

This series takes place circa year 2006, after the fall of Los Angeles was undone in After the Fall, Part Seventeen, but before Spike's arrival with his ship in Twilight, Part Four.
Beck mentions being a "scared little girl" before she met Spike, in Asylum, Part Two.
Spike and Drusilla are reunited, after last seeing each other in episode "Crush".
