Owen, from Season 1's "Never Kill a Boy on a First Date"
He’d been upset that things didn’t work out with Buffy.
He’d always gone for nice, well-mannered girls before her, but that one date made him realize that he was looking for something else. He wanted someone exciting, dangerous, a break from his boring small town routine.
So it was lucky and surprising that he ran into another exciting girl interested in him only a week after Buffy.
She’d said the guy in the alley was just passed out drunk but he wasn’t easily fooled. They’d fought, and she’d won.
He couldn’t have anticipated the consequences of a date with Darla.
