The first rule of fight club is no talking about fight club, right?
The second rule is no, really, no talking—Vegas rules, yeah? What happens in fight club stays in bloody fight club. No spilling the beans to your chatty little girlfriends.
(That means you, Harris.)
The third rule of fight club is definitely don't tell the Slayer. She'd never let him live it down.

When Oz decides running away from his problems isn't the solution, he turns to the one person in town who seems to have a handle on his demon: Spike.
In which Oz and Spike save the Scoobies, get the girl, and change the future through the power of friendship, anger management, and…healthy communication?

Summary:
How would season 4 be different if Oz had stayed in Sunnydale?
Personally I don't think the Scoobies would have been so welcoming of Riley and I doubt their collective demon hatred would have gotten so out of hand. I also think Oz would have a different view of the Initiative... but these are just my opinions.
How would season 4 (and those after) Have progressed with Oz's steady presence?
