[X][AMY] Despite Willow's protests, Buffy still wants to deal with Amy and use her to talk to the Rat King. Diplomacy's worth a chance.
-
-
[X][TRY] Amy will go back to jail unless negotiations with the Rat King are productive. She's too likely to coast by or even actively sabotage things if she doesn't have a strong incentive to make it work.
-
-
[X][EXILE] Amy represents to much of a threat to the Sunnydale, and will be exiled at the conclusion of the adventure even if she meets whatever expectations Buffy has set up for her.
-
-
[X][APPROACH] Amy is selfish and basically unredeemable, but she can be motivated by threats of violence and consequences. Buffy will be confrontational in negotiations and play on Amy's fears to get her to do what she wants.
-
-
[X][AMY] Amy is too unreliable, annoying, and difficult to deal with. Leave her to rot in jail for now, abandon the idea of diplomacy, and attempt to steal the Allslyra skeleton from Wolfram and Hart.
-
-
[X][TRY] As long as Amy seems to put some effort into making the plan work, she won't be sent back to jail even if diplomacy goes nowhere. All kinds of things could go wrong outside her control, and making her more angry with you won't do any good.
-
-
[X][EXILE] While she's dangerous, having Amy around is also useful, as proven by this very situation. She's talking a big game now but Buffy thinks she can keep her under control, and if she's allowed to stay she might cooperate more helpfully.
-
-
[X][APPROACH] Amy can be redeemed, and she cares about her father. Buffy will calm the angry influence of some of her friends and appeal to Amy's hopes and emotions, looking to smooth over their differences and approach things professionally.
