Again taken from the "aintitcool.com" site

We get loads of “spoilers” here at Coax.
Some come from people with track records,
so we know they can be trusted. Most, however,
come from sources we don’t know from a hole in
the ground. This missive comes from one of those.
But there’s a wisecrack within – a wisecrack Spike
makes about Glory - that (like Wolverine’s) leaves
Herc convinced this is the real thing. Here’s
“Scriptgirl” with a look at Buffy 2.18, titled “Intervention.” It’s the second new “Buffy”
of the six yet to be aired, and is slated to be
broadcast April 24. Buffy, who starts to fear she
is losing the ability to love, agrees to leave Dawn
with Xander and Anya and join Giles on a desert
retreat so she might gain information from
"The Guide" (in the form of the “First Slayer” from “Restless”). Buffy’s “guide” will tell her
that love will lead her to her gift – and that
"death is your gift."

Glory, now aware that The Key is human, dispatches
minions to spy on the Scoobs because she thinks
Buffy knows the identity of The Key.

Spike gets his Buffybot from Warren. Spike whines
about it looking plasticky, but once Buffybot kisses
him, he is very satisfied.

A post-coital Buffybot heads out on patrol and runs
into Xander and Anya, also on patrol. Xander is
surprised to see Buffy back so soon, and finds her
behavior most passing strange. Soon Xander catches
the Buffybot having sex with Spike, and relays this
news to the other shocked Scoobs, who think Buffy must
be doing this out of her grief over Joyce’s death.

As Xander speaks to Spike about Buffy, Glory’s
minions bust in and kidnap Spike. Because the
Buffybot was seen protecting Spike, the minions
are now convinced that Spike is The Key. When Spike
is delivered, Glory is enraged; Spike can’t possibly
be The Key because he’s not human! Glory sets about torturing Spike for information about The Key.

Worried about Spike spilling the beans about Dawn to
Glory, the Scoobs head to Buffy’s house to gather
weapons, only to be met there by the Buffybot, itself looking for help. As the Slayer Circle tries to stage
a (hilarious) intervention, Buffy herself returns and
is hugely peeved that the Scoobs couldn’t tell the
Buffybot from the real thing. On the way to find
Glory’s lair, the Buffybot is damaged by minions.

Though beaten and bloodied by a Key-seeking Glory,
Spike can’t resist mocking her, calling her a
“god of bad home perms" and the like. Glory hits
Spike so hard she breaks his restraints, and Spike
manages an escape. Glory abandons her lair as the
Scoobs close in.

The damaged Buffybot returns to the Spikecrypt and
finds Spike with his eyes so swollen he can barely see.

BUFFYBOT: Why don’t you just tell Glory what she wants
to know?

SPIKE: Because I can't do that to Buffy. The real Buffy.

(The Buffybot kisses Spike on the lips, sweetly)

SPIKE (pulling back in shock): What did you do with my robot?

BUFFY: The robot is gone. The robot is gross.
Don't do it again. And thank you.

Executive Producer Joss Whedon.

Again, because who knows if this is real or not, I will wait and see what happens.
