The following was an alternative ending to 5.01 Buffy Vs Dracula:
Buffy arms herself with a lit torch, when Giles and Riley burst into the room:
The arrival of her entourage is the final straw for Dracula. He fixes Buffy with a final look, full of both pain and fury.
Dracula: “What a shame. You could have been great, you know.”
With that, he flings himself out the massive window-shattering it.
EXT. DRACULA’S CASTLE-NIGHT
Dracula, having changed into a wolf, comes flying out the window. He hits the ground and lopes into the dark woods.

i think that if they were going to have Spike and Dracula be rivals, they should have had Dracula make some crack about Spike or something

The only problem with that is that they problaby weren’t rivals. It seems clear that Spike only said that stuff to make himself sound good. He may have met Dracula, but Dracula probably wouldn’t even remember Spike (as Spike is sort of beneath him). Spike’s mention of Dracula is incredebly funny, though.

I love the way Spike says Drac owes him 11 quid! It’s like, if Dracula owed ME 11 quid I’d quite happily let him off it ;o)
I do love the part at the beginning of the episode where Buffy first meets Dracula and goes “Care to step on up for some over-time?” - she looks so hot when she says that!!

I like the alternative ending - Dracula escapes into the woods as a wolf. It was a kinda hokey and a little too campy with him disappearing into a puff of smoke. They probably could not afford the CGI or it was budgeted for later in the Season.

I prefer the ending as it is. We still have the cliché, but it actually turns into a parody when we see that Buffy is quite aware of it too.
