"Wild at Heart" is the sixth episode of the fourth season of the American television show Buffy the Vampire Slayer, first airing on November 9, 1999 on The WB. It was written by Marti Noxon and directed by David Grossman.
In the episode, Oz (Seth Green), a werewolf, is drawn by animal instinct to Veruca (Paige Moss), another werewolf. This causes friction with his girlfriend, Willow Rosenberg (Alyson Hannigan), and ultimately Oz leaves town to explore the wolf side of him. The circumstances seen in "Wild at Heart" arose from Seth Green's abrupt decision to leave the series.
Buffy is chased by a vampire, which she fights and then stakes. Her well-thought puns are not appreciated. Spike stalks Buffy from a distance and promises trouble, but he is struck by Tasers and carried off by the masked and heavily armed people lurking in the Sunnydale shadows. At the Bronze, the gang talks about college and why they're still hanging at the Bronze, and then to their surprise Giles joins them. Veruca's band, "Shy" starts to play and all the guys are mesmerized by her singing.
The next morning, Willow wakes up in Oz's bed and they talk about how they'll be apart for three nights while there's a full moon keeping Oz locked up, and a Wicca group is meeting on those three nights. At school, Buffy gets a great grade on a Psychology paper and Professor Walsh asks her to lead a discussion group on the topic. Willow is actually academically envious of Buffy. Veruca invites Oz to sit with her at lunch, which he accepts since there is room for Willow and they start talking amps. Willow arrives, and is lost by their terminology, leading everyone to flee the incredibly awkward situation. Buffy tells Willow not to worry about Oz.
