Andrew Wells is the younger brother of Tucker Wells, who summoned hellhounds to attack the Prom in the Season Three episode "The Prom". Andrew himself has skills in demon-summoning and animal control, although these were never used after Season Six; in the Buffy finale "Chosen" he credits his brother with having given him the courage to develop this talent.
At some point during Buffy's senior year in high school, he summoned "flying demon monkeys" to attack Sunnydale High's production of Romeo and Juliet, apparently for no other reason than to amuse himself. Years after the fact, both Jonathan (Danny Strong) and Warren (Adam Busch) recall the incident with amusement; since Warren, Buffy's contemporary, is known to have spent only his senior year at Sunnydale High (he attended the prom to which Tucker sent the hellhounds), his memory of the occasion proves that it occurred during his senior year, which was also Buffy's. The Scooby Gang have no memory of this whatsoever; viewers are left with the impression that the attack ranks among any number of less-memorable supernatural incidents which plagued Sunnydale. They also have no recollection of who Andrew is, until he informs them of his relation to Tucker. This becomes a running joke, as from then on, he is often referred to as "the other guy," "Tucker's brother," and so on.
Andrew was introduced in season 6 as part of The Trio, a group of nerds who thought of themselves as supervillains. This group included Jonathan, an acquaintance of Buffy and her friends, and Warren, a misogynist with delusions of grandeur. The Trio attempted a number of crimes that were usually thwarted by Buffy. Their crimes were mainly harmless until Warren killed his ex-girlfriend Katrina. Buffy defeated them one more time during a robbery attempt, with Warren escaping but Andrew and Jonathan getting caught. Warren took his revenge on Buffy by shooting her, accidentally killing Willow's girlfriend, Tara, in the process. In her grief, Willow killed Warren and attempted to kill Andrew and Jonathan. Buffy broke Andrew and Jonathan out of jail to keep them out of Willow's grasp. The duo escaped to Mexico before they could be brought back to jail.
