Just as he's about to swing it at the window, a guard rushes in and tackles him to the ground. Eve and Gunn turn and see no-one there, so go back to their conversation.

* TemporarySubstitute: Wesley is absent because Creator/AlexisDenisof was on his honeymoon with Creator/AlysonHannigan. He is replaced by another expert on occult lore, with the explanation that Wesley was taking some well-deserved time off after killing a robot that he believed to be his father.
** This one is unusual in that Creator/JossWhedon probably knew about this months in advance, enough time to not only set up the reason for Wesley's absence, but write an episode that would not have worked if Wesley had been present - a major plot point was that the Substitute Expert was evil, and deliberately mistranslated a text, where Wesley would have given a faithful translation.
