SMG: We’ve got a lot of time for that. OK: it was 1997-1998ish, Buffy started airing and became a cult series. So, one day a group of yeshivah pupils from a local Chabad yeshivah arrived to the studios saying they have some numerological insights from the Jewish bible, about what will happen in Sunnydale next.
[SGlau burst out laughing.]
SGlau: [calms down] Oh my God, that’s the craziest thing I have ever heard.
SMG: Anyway, we played along, and listened to what they had to say, and actually got a few good ideas from that. Moreover, in one of the recesses, one of the Yeshivah pupils asked me out, and I accepted.
SMG: So we went on a date.
SGlau: So you mean like the 1997ish Sarah Michelle Gellar, and a Yeshivah pupil… On a date?!
SMG: Yes! And I actually had some weirder dates as a happy spinster.
SMG: Anyhow, surprisingly, it was a very nice date, I had a great time, and I learned quite a bit.
SGlau: Heh.
SMG: And one thing he told me was that every Jew (as he said) should believe they are the Messiah, which is something I treasured since.
SGlau: So I presume I’m also the Messiah?
SMG: You got it. We are the most powerful people on Earth, and we should aim to bring the end of days.
