Let's load up some more quotes.

XANDER: ... Am I right, Giles?

GILES: I'm almost certain you're not, but to be fair, I wasn't listening.

---------------------------------------------------

ANYA: That's what I've been saying. I mean I, for one, didn't want to start my day with a slaughter... Which really just goes to show how much I've grown!

---------------------------------------------------

GILES: ...Tara and I could use your help researching Buffy's mysterious woman.

XANDER: Oh yeah, this has been fruitful. Trying to look up something you never saw and don't know the name of.

ANYA: Just do what I do: flip through the pages and look busy.

---------------------------------------------------

ANYA: Hey. Hey! HEY! HEY!!!!!

GILES: Anya, your "hey"s are startling the customers.

XANDER: And... And pretty much the state.

ANYA: You sold someone a Khul's amulet and a Sobekian bloodstone.

GILES: Yes, I believe I did.

ANYA: Are you stupid or something?

GILES: Allow me to answer that question with a firing.

XANDER: She's kidding! An, we talked about the employee-employer vocabulary no-nos. That was number five.

---------------------------------------------------

BUFFY: Okay, so she's making a monster. What for? What does it do?

GILES: That's the part... We're working on it.

BUFFY: Well, you keep working on it. I'll go kill it.

---------------------------------------------------

DAWN: I like the Jello.

JOYCE: Help yourself. There's something about food that moves by itself that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

DAWN: It's good and wiggly. This girl at school told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet, and that if you eat Jell-O there's some cows out limping with no feet. But I told her I'm sure they kill 'em before they take off their feet... Right?

BUFFY (to Joyce): You're the one who insisted on teaching her to talk.

---------------------------------------------------

GILES: My god, what a rough night.

WILLOW: I just did two of 'em (vampires)! Yay on me! That was pretty cool. Except the part where I was all terrified and... And now my knees are all dizzy.

---------------------------------------------------

WILLOW [about constellations]: You know, I used to love to look up at them when I was little. They're supposed to make you feel all insignificant, but... they made me feel like... like I was in space... part of the stars. There's... Canis Minor... and... and Cassiopeia.

TARA: And The Big Pineapple.

WILLOW: Hmm. You know, I'm not sure I remember that one.

TARA: Oh, it's, it's a major one. See those three bright stars right over there?

WILLOW: Yeah.

TARA: And see those stars along there? That's the bottom of the pineapple.

WILLOW: It's big.

TARA: Hence the name... The real ones never made sense to me. I... sort of have my own.

WILLOW: Teach me.

TARA: See those stars over there? "Short Man Looking Uncomfortable." Uh... "Moose getting a sponge bath." Umm... "Little Pile O'Crackers."

---------------------------------------------------

RILEY: Oh, yeah. I'm sorry about last time. Heard I missed out on some fun.

XANDER: Oh, yeah, fun was had. Also frolic, merriment, and near-death hi-jinks.

---------------------------------------------------

WILLOW: Something evil crashed to Earth in this and then broke out and... slithered away to do badness.

GILES: In all fairness, we don't really know about the slithered part.

ANYA: Oh, no. I'm sure it frisked about like a fluffy lamb.

---------------------------------------------------

RILEY: No pulse.

ANYA: Yep, the space lamb got 'im.

---------------------------------------------------

RILEY: Oh, that might be toxic, don't touch it.

XANDER: Oh yeah, touching it was my first impulse. Luckily I've moved on to my second, which involves dry heaving and running like hell.

---------------------------------------------------

WILLOW: What time is it?

XANDER: There's a clock behind you, Will.

WILLOW: I know, but there's a watch right above your hand.

---------------------------------------------------

BUFFY [about Riley]: I know that. Look, I told him to make plans with his friends because I wanted to have you all to myself, okay? Besides, I can see him any time. And I'm sure he'll come over later looking for a little...... bible study.

JOYCE: Well, good. I mean, just as long as the two of you are spending some quality time with... the Lord.

---------------------------------------------------

GILES: No longer a victim of crass holiday commercialization, I'm... a purveyor of it.

ANYA: Oh. Who ordered more chickens' feet? The ones we have aren't moving at all.

XANDER: That's generally what happens when you cut them off the chicken.

ANYA: I'm serious. Maybe we could do a... holiday promotion. One free with every purchase!

GILES: Oh, yeah. Dear holiday memories. Merry tykes by the fire, enjoying their new Christmas... chicken feet.

WILLOW: Aw, holding them tight as they fall asleep. Painting their little toenails.

ANYA: That's so very humorous. Make fun of the ex-demon! I can just hear you in private. 'I dislike that Anya. She's newly human and strangely literal.'

WILLOW: Anya, I don't say that. No one says that. No one talks that way.

---------------------------------------------------

BUFFY: There were people there. It, um... It looked like they were paying vampires to bite them.

XANDER: Now I know what to get for the person who has everything!

--------------------------------------------------------

SPIKE: Hey! Hey, let's be reasonable about this.

RILEY: You may have noticed, Spike, I left reasonable about three exits back.

---------------------------------------------------

XANDER: Yeah, when we went to deal with that vampire nest, she got all Rambo and torched the place. Something seriously bad is going on with her.

ANYA: Oh, I don't know, maybe you're overreacting. I mean, who hasn't done stuff like that from time to time? I mean, I made this one guy spontaneously combust and he set his whole village on fire.

---------------------------------------------------

XANDER: But you miss the point. You shut down, Buffy. And you've been treating Riley like the rebound guy. When he's the one that comes along once in a lifetime. He's never held back with you. He's risked everything. And you're about to let him fly because you don't like ultimatums?... If he's not the guy, if what he needs from you just isn't there... let him go. Break his heart and make it a clean break. But if you really think you can love this guy... I'm talking scary, messy, no-emotions-barred need... if you're ready for that... then think about what you're about to lose.

BUFFY: Xander...

XANDER: Run.

---------------------------------------------------

XANDER [to Anya]: I've gotta say something... 'Cause... I don't think I've made it clear. I'm in love with you... Powerfully, painfully in love. The things you do... the way you think... the way you move... I get excited every time I'm about to see you. You make me feel like I've never felt before in my life... Like a man. I just thought you might wanna know.
