Anne
"So, no joy at the cemetery?"
"No, he got away. We still have some glitches in the system, like... vampires getting away. But I think we're improving."
"For God's sake be careful. I mean, uh, I appreciate your efforts to keep the vampire population down until Buffy returns, but, uh... Well, if anything should happen to you and... you should be killed, I should take it somewhat amiss."
"You'd be cranky?"
"Entirely."
Well, we try not to get killed. That's part of our whole mission statement. 'Don't get killed.'"
-Giles and Willow
"Yeah, and the slaying isn't getting any easier, either."
"I don't know. I think we're kinda getting a rhythm down."
"We're losing half the vamps."
"Yeah, but... rhythmically."
-Xander and Oz
"Where do I hide?"
"You don't hide. You're bait. Go act baity."
"What's the plan?"
"The vampire attacks you."
"And then what?"
"The vampire kills you. We watch, we rejoice."
-Cordelia and Xander
Dead Man's Party
"I have not only the right, but also a nearly physical sensation of pleasure at the thought of keeping her out of school. I'd describe myself as tingly."
-Principal Snyder
"Didn't anyone ever warn you about playing with pointy sticks? It's all fun and games until somebody loses an eye."
-Buffy
Faith, Hope and Trick
"All right, yes, date and shop and hang out and go to school and save the world from unspeakable demons. You know, I wanna do girlie stuff!"
-Buffy
"Have you ever noticed, though, when he is mad, but he's too English to say anything, he makes that weird cluck-cluck sound with his tongue?"
"Hi, Giles!"
"Oh, hi! Been there long?"
-Willow and Buffy
"Mm, sage. I love that smell. And marnox root. You know, a smidge of this mixed with a virgin's saliva... Does something I know nothing about."
"These forces are not something that one plays around with, Willow. What have you been conjuring?"
"Nothing... much. Well, you know, I tried this spell to cure Angel, and I guess that was a bust. But since then, you know, small stuff: floating feather, fire out of ice, which next time I won't do on the bedspread. Are you mad at me?"
"No, of course not, no. If I were, I would be making a strange clucking sound with my tongue."
-Willow and Giles
"Um, maybe I should introduce you again. Faith, this is Giles."
"I see him. If I'd've known they came that young and cute, I would've requested a transfer."
"Raise your hand if 'ew'."
-Buffy and Faith
"And they say young people don't learn anything in high school nowadays, but, um, I've learned to be afraid."
-Xander
"Giles, there are two things that I don't believe in: coincidence and leprechauns."
"Well, Buffy, it's entirely possible that they both arrived here by chance simultaneously."
"Okay, but I was right about the leprechauns, right?"
"As far as I know, yes."
-Buffy and Giles
"Angel was cured."
"I'm sorry?"
"When I killed him, Angel was cured. Your spell worked at the last minute, Will. I was about to take him out, and, um... something went through him... and he was Angel again. He-he didn't remember anything that he'd done. He just held me. Um, but i-it was... it was too late, and I, I had to. So I, I told him that I loved him... and I kissed him... and I killed him."
"I don't know if that helps with your spell or not, Giles."
"Uh, yes, I, I believe it will."
"I'm sorry."
"It's okay. I've been holding on to that for so long. Felt good to get it out. I'll see you guys later."
"Giles, I know you don't like me playing with mystical forces, but I can really help with this binding spell."
"There is no spell."
-Buffy, Giles, and Willow
Beauty and the Beasts
"We're doing crime here. You don't sneak up during crime."
-Xander, after Cordelia surprises him
"Ow!"
"Oh! Sorry!"
"Oh, right. Bloody priceless."
-Giles and Buffy, after Buffy accidentally shoots Giles while aiming at Pete
"I mean, this time, it's not your boyfriend who's the cold-blooded... Jelly doughnut?"
-Willow
"Let's just pretend for a second that... Angel somehow found his way back to Sunnydale. What would he be like?"
"I really can't say. From what is known about that dimension, i-it would suggest a world of... brutal torment. And time moves quite differently there, so..."
"I remember. So he would've been down there for hundreds of years."
"Yes."
"Of torture."
"It would take someone of extraordinary... will and character to survive that and, uh, retain any semblance of self. Most likely, he'd be, be a monster."
"A lost cause."
"Maybe. Maybe not. In my experience, there are... two types of monster. The first, uh, can be redeemed, or more importantly, wants to be redeemed."
"And the second type?"
"The second is void of humanity, cannot respond to reason... or love."
-Buffy and Giles
Homecoming
"A big, expensive limo?"
"That sounds like fun! And it is our last Homecoming Dance, so maybe we should make a big deal of it."
"You wanna talk fun? Public bus. You meet the funnest people."
-Xander and Willow, after Cordy suggests renting a limo for Homecoming, but Xander doesn't want to pay for it
"What's going on here? Did Scott not ask her to the Homecoming Dance yet?"
"Thanks, Cordelia. Humiliation's really good for my color."
-Cordy and Buffy, with Scott standing with them
"Buffy and Faith are in the library getting all sweaty."
"They're training."
"I stand by my phrase."
-Xander and Cordelia
"Yeah, we should face it, Will. You and I are gonna be in neighboring rest homes while I come over so you can adjust my, um... My, uh... Well, I can't think of anything that's not really gross."
-Xander
"This whole trying to be like me really isn't funny anymore.
"I was never trying to be like you, and when was it funny?
"I don't see why your pathetic need to recapture your glory days gives you the right to splinter my vote.
"How can you think it's okay to talk to people like this? Do you have parents?
"Yeah. Two of them... unlike some people.
"Your brain isn't even connected to your mouth, is it?
-Cordelia and Buffy
"We have to find Buffy. Something terrible's happened. Just kidding. Thought I'd give you a scare. Are those finger sandwiches?"
-Giles
"Scott? There you are, honey! Hey, good news. The doctor says that the itching and the swelling and the burning should clear up, but we gotta keep using the ointment."
-Faith, after Scott dumps Buffy before prom and goes with another girl
"You really love Xander?"
"Well, he kinda grows on you, like... a Chia Pet."
-Buffy and Cordy
Band Candy
"'And on that tragic day, an era came to its inevitable end.' That's all there is. Are you ready?"
"Hit me."
"Which of the following best expresses the theme of the passage? A) Violence breeds violence, B) All things must end, C)..."
"'B'. I'm going with 'B'. We haven't had 'B' in forever."
"This is the SATs, Buffy, not connect-the-dots. Please pay attention. A low score could seriously harm your chances of getting into college."
"Gee, thanks. That takes the pressure right off."
"This isn't meant to be easy, you know. It's a rite of passage."
"Well, is it too late to join a tribe where they just pierce something or cut something off?"
"Buffy, please concentrate."
"Hmm. I broke my No. 2 pencil. We'll have to do this again sometime."
"C) All systems tend towards chaos."
-Giles and Buffy
"And then I was being chased by an improperly filled-in answer bubble screaming, 'none of the above!'"
"Wow. I hope that wasn't one of your prophecy dreams. Probably not."
-Buffy and Willow
"I don't get this. The candy's supposed to make you feel all immature and stuff, but I've had a ton, and I don't feel any dif... Never mind."
-Xander
"These children are gonna die if we don't act now, okay, and think clearly. There is no room for mistakes. Besides which... you guys are just wigging me out."
-Buffy
"I hate they make us take that thing. It's totally fascist, and personally, I think it, uh, discriminates against the uninformed."
"Actually, I'm looking forward to it. I do well on standardized tests. What? I can't have layers?"
-Xander and Cordy
Revelations
"Hey! Speaking of people and things they do that aren't like usual, anyone notice Buffy acting sort of different?"
"Let's see, uh, killing zombies... uh, torching sewer monsters, and... No, that's pretty much the, uh, same old Buffster."
-Willow and Xander
"That was bracing."
"Interesting lady. Can we kill her?"
"I think the council might frown upon that."
-Giles and Buffy, talking about Gwendolyn Post
"Ugh... It's late. I'm tired. What does he want from us, anyway?"
"The number of a qualified surgeon to remove the British flag from his butt?"
-Willow and Xander, talking about Giles
Lover's Walk
"What's this?"
"It's a gift."
"What's the occasion?"
"Pretty much you are."
"It's a little, uh, PEZ witch!"
"It's kind of a theme present. Do you like it?"
"I like... I-I more than like. Oz, this is probably the sweetest... We have to find a little PEZ werewolf, so little PEZ witch can have a boyfriend."
"I don't think they make a werewolf PEZ. You might have to settle for a wacky cartoon dog."
"This is... just so thoughtful."
"Well, I think about you."
"Oh... I don't have anything to give you."
"Yeah, you do."
-Willow and Oz
"This is a nightmare. This is... My world is spinning."
"It's not that bad, Willow, really."
"740? Verbal?! I'm-I'm... pathetic! Illiterate! I'm Cletus, the slack-jawed yokel."
"That's right. And the fact that your 740 verbal closely resembles my combined scores in no way compromises your position as the village idiot."
-Willow and Xander
"That was my sarcastic voice."
"You know, it sounds a lot like your regular voice."
"I've been told that."
-Oz and Xander
"1430! Buffy, you kicked ass! Okay, so academic achievement gets me a little excited."
-Willow, speaking of Buffy's SAT score
"I suspect your mother will want to, uh, put it on the refrigerator."
"Yeah. She saw these scores, and her head spun around and exploded."
"I-I've been on the Hellmouth too long. That was metaphorical, yes?"
"Yes. She was happy."
-Giles and Buffy
"Hey. I was wondering when you were coming."
"I'm not coming back."
"We're not friends. We never were. And I can fool Giles, and I can fool my friends, but I can't fool myself. Or Spike, for some reason. What I want from you I can never have. You don't need me to take care of you anymore. So I'm gonna go."
"I don't accept that."
"You have to."
"How can... There's gotta be some way we can still see each other."
"There is: tell me that you don't love me."
-Angel and Buffy The Wish
"Look, you want to do guilt-a-palooza, fine, but I'm done with that. Starting this minute, I'm gonna grab ahold of that crazy little thing called life and let it do its magical little heal-y thing. What's done is done. Let's be in the moment. Behold the beauty that is now. Who's with me?"
"He's actually making sense. We're young and free in America. How dare we be spun by love or the lack of same?"
"Absolutely. I-it's self-indulgent. I-I'm in. I'm on the joy train."
"That didn't work. Who wants chocolate?"
-Xander, Buffy, and Willow
"I've left a few messages. Sixty... Seventy... But you know what really bugs me? Okay, we kissed. It was a mistake. But I know that was positively the last time we were ever gonna kiss."
"Darn tootin'!"
"And they burst in, rescuing us, without even knocking? I mean, this is really all their fault."
"Your logic does not resemble our Earth logic."
"Mine is much more advanced."
-Xander, Willow, and Buffy
"World is what it is. We fight. We die. Wishing doesn't change that."
-Buffy Amends
"And then he just bailed. He didn't say anything. He just took off. It was so weird."
"Angel? Weird? What are the odds?"
-Buffy and Xander
"So, you doing anything special?"
"Tree. Nog. Roast beast. Just me and Mom and hopefully an excess of gifts. What are you doing for Christmas?"
"Being Jewish. Remember, people? Not everybody worships Santa."
-Xander, Buffy, and Willow
"Look, I'm aware I haven't been the mostest best friend to you when it comes to the whole Angel thing, and, um, I don't know, maybe I finally got the Chanukah spirit."
-Xander
"Angel."
"I bet half the kids down there are already awake. Lying in their beds... sneaking downstairs... waiting for day."
"Angel, please. I need for you to get inside. Th-there's only a few minutes left."
"I know. I can smell the sunrise long before it comes."
"I don't have time to explain this. You just have to trust me. That thing that was haunting you..."
"It wasn't haunting me. It was showing me."
"Showing you?"
"What I am."
"Were."
"And ever shall be. I wanted to know why I was back. Now I do."
"You don't know. Some great evil takes credit for bringing you back and you buy it? You just give up?"
"I can't do it again, Buffy. I can't become a killer."
"Then fight it."
"It's too hard."
"Angel, please, you have to get inside."
"It told me to kill you. You were in the dream. You know. It told me to lose my soul in you and become a monster again."
"I know what it told you. What does it matter?"
"Because I wanted to! Because I want you so badly! I want to take comfort in you, and I know it'll cost me my soul, and a part of me doesn't care. Look, I'm weak. I've never been anything else. It's not the demon in me that needs killing, Buffy. It's the man."
"You're weak. Everybody is. Everybody fails. Maybe this evil did bring you back, but if it did, it's because it needs you. And that means that you can hurt it."
"Angel, you have the power to do real good, to make amends. But if you die now, then all that you ever were was a monster." Angel, please, the sun is coming up!"
"Just go."
"I won't!"
"What, do you think this is simple? You think there's an easy answer? You can never understand what I've done! Now go!"
"You are not staying here. I won't let you!"
"I said LEAVE! Oh, my God..."
"No! No!"
"Am I a thing worth saving, huh? Am I a righteous man? The world wants me gone!"
"What about me? I love you so much... And I tried to make you go away... I killed you and it didn't help. And I hate it! I hate that it's so hard... and that you can hurt me so much. I know everything that you did, because you did it to me. Oh, God! I wish that I wished you dead. I don't. I can't."
"Buffy, please. Just this once... let me be strong."
"Strong is fighting! It's hard, and it's painful, and it's every day. It's what we have to do. And we can do it together. But if you're too much of a coward for that, then burn. If I can't convince you that you belong in this world, then I don't know what can. But do not expect me to watch. And don't expect me to mourn for you, because..."
-Buffy and Angel, they stop talking because it begins snowing and the sun won't appear for the whole day
Gingerbread
"Willow, honey, you don't need to act out like this to prove your specialness."
"Mom, I'm not acting out. I'm a witch! I-I can make pencils float. And I can summon the four elements. Okay, two, but four soon. A-and I'm dating a musician."
"Oh, Willow!"
-Willow's mom, Sheila, and Willow
"Is Sunnydale any better than when I first came here? Okay, so I battle evil. But I don't really win. The bad keeps coming back and getting stronger. Like that kid in the story, the boy that stuck his finger in the duck."
"Dike. It's another word for dam."
"Oh. Okay, that story makes a lot more sense now."
"Buffy, you know, I'm still figuring things out. There's a lot I don't understand. But I do know it's important to keep fighting. I learned that from you."
"But we never..."
"We never win."
"Not completely."
"We never will. That's not why we fight. We do it 'cause there's things worth fighting for."
-Buffy and Angel
"Session interrupted? Who said you could interrupt, you stupid, useless fad! No, I said fad. And I'll say it again."
-Giles, talking to a computer
"I don't know about you, but I'm gonna go trade my cow in for some beans. No one else is seeing the funny here."
-Xander Helpless
"Right, birthday. Um, actually, I, I do have a thing."
"Oh, a thing. A date?"
"Nice attempt at casual. Actually, I do have a date. Older man. Very handsome. He likes it when I call him 'Daddy'."
"Huh, your father. It is your father, right?"
-Buffy and Angel
"So, how's it going with Amy the rat?"
"Good! She loves her new exercise wheel. She runs around, her nose wiggles..."
"I-I meant, how's it going changing her back into a human being?"
"Oh. Still working on it. But I just got her the cutest little bell..."
-Buffy and Willow
"You know, maybe we're on the wrong track with the whole spell, curse and whammy thing. Maybe what we should be looking for is something like, um, Slayer kryptonite."
"Faulty metaphor. Kryptonite kills."
"You're assuming I meant the green kryptonite. I was referring, of course, to the red kryptonite, which drains Superman of his powers."
"Wrong. The gold kryptonite's the power-sucker. The red kryptonite mutates Superman into some sort of weird..."
-Xander and Oz
"Angel, what if I have lost my power?"
"You lived a long time without it. You can do it again."
"I guess. But what if I can't? I've seen too much. I know what goes bump in the night. Not being able to fight it... What if I just hide under my bed, all scared and helpless? Or what if I just become pathetic? Hanging out at the old Slayer's home, talking people's ears off about my glory days, showing them Mr. Pointy, the stake I had bronzed."
"Buffy, you could never be helpless or boring, not even if you tried."
-Buffy and Angel
"I saw you before you became the Slayer."
"What?"
"I watched you, and I saw you called. It was a bright afternoon out in front of your school. You walked down the steps... and... and I loved you."
"Why?"
"'Cause I could see your heart. You held it before you for everyone to see. And I worried that it would be bruised or torn. And more than anything in my life I wanted to keep it safe... to warm it with my own."
"That's beautiful. Or taken literally, incredibly gross."
"I was just thinking that, too."
-Angel and Buffy
"Well, it's just... I mean, he's been fired! He's, he's unemployed! He's... between jobs."
"Giles isn't going anywhere, Will. He's still librarian."
"Okay, but I'm writing an angry letter."
-Willow and Buffy
"Give you a hand with that, little lady?"
"You're loving this far too much."
"Admit it. Sometimes you just need a big strong man. Uh, Will, gimme a hand with that?"
-Xander and Buffy, trying to open a jar of peanut butter
The Zeppo
"Excuse me? Who, at a crucial moment, distracted the lead demon by allowing her to pummel him about the head?"
"Yeah. That was real manly how you shrieked and all."
"I think you'll find that was more of a bellow."
-Xander and Faith
"Uh, what do we do with the trio here? Should we burn them?"
"I brought marshmallows. Occasionally, I'm callous and strange."
-Buffy and Willow
"What are you, retarded?"
"No! No, I had to take that test when I was seven. A little slow in some stuff, mostly math and spatial relations, but certainly not challenged or anything."
-Jack, student at Sunnydale, and Xander
"It must be really hard when all your friends have, like, superpowers -- Slayer, werewolf, witches, vampires -- and you're, like, this little nothing. You must feel like Jimmy Olsen."
"I was just talking to... Hey, mind your own business!"
"Ooo, I struck a nerve. The boy that had no cool."
-Cordelia and Xander
"But... It's just that it's buggin' me, this 'cool' thing. I mean, what is it? How do you get it? Who doesn't have it? And who decides who doesn't have it? What is the essence of cool?"
"Not sure."
"I mean, you yourself, Oz, are considered more or less cool. Why is that?"
"Am I?"
"Is it about the talking? You know, the way you tend to express yourself in short, noncommittal phrases?"
"Could be."
"I know! You're in a band! That's like a business-class ticket to cool with complementary mojo after takeoff! I gotta learnan instrument. Is it hard to play guitar?"
"Not the way I play it."
"Okay, but on the other hand: eighth grade. I'm taking the flügelhorn and gettin' zero trim. So the whole instrument thing could be a mislead. But you need a thing, one thing nobody else has. What do I have?"
"An exciting new obsession. Which I feel makes you very special."
-Xander and Oz
Bad Girls
"Willow, what are these?"
"They're early admission packets."
"Harvard... Yale... Wesleyan... Some German Polytechnical Institute whose name I, uh... I can't pronounce. Is anyone else intimidated? 'Cause I'm just expecting thin slips of paper with the words 'No Way' written in crayon."
-Xander and Willow
"I didn't get this job because of my looks."
"I really, really believe that."
-Wesley and Buffy
"New Watcher?"
"New Watcher."
"Screw that."
"Now, why didn't I just say that?"
-Faith and Buffy
"Remember the three key words for any Slayer: preparation... preparation... preparation."
"That's one word three times."
-Wesley and Buffy
"How come your eye twitches every time I say Faith's name?"
"What? No, it doesn't."
"Faith."
"Cut it out! We got a test to take, okay? And I'm highly caffeinated, and I'm trying to concentrate. Some of us actually care about school. You know."
-Buffy and Xander
"I didn't say you had emotional problems. I said you had an emotional problem. It's quite different."
"My 'attachment' to the Slayer is not a problem. In point of fact, it's been a very..."
"The way you've handled this assignment is something of an embarrassment to the council."
"If you want to criticize my methods, fine. But you can keep your snide remarks to yourself. And while you're at it, don't criticize my methods."
-Wesley and Giles
Consequences
"We are better! That's right, better. People need us to survive. In the balance, nobody's gonna cry over some random bystander who got caught in the crossfire."
"I am."
"Well, that's your loss."
-Buffy and Faith
"You and me, Faith, we're a lot alike. Time was, I thought humans existed just to hurt each other. But then I came here. And I found out that there are other types of people. People who genuinely wanted to do right. And they make mistakes. And they fall down. You know, but they keep caring. Keep trying. If you can trust us, Faith, this can all change. You don't have to disappear into the darkness."
-Angel
Doppelgangland
"For a thousand years I wielded the powers of The Wish. I brought ruin to the heads of unfaithful men. I brought forth destruction and chaos for the pleasure of the lower beings. I was feared and worshipped across the mortal globe. And now I'm stuck at Sunnydale High. Mortal. Child. And I'm flunking math."
-Anya
"I swear, I am just trying to find my necklace."
"Well, did you try looking inside the sofa in Hell?"
-Anya and Willow
"It's really nice that you guys missed me. Say, you all didn't happen to do a bunch of drugs, did ya?"
-Willow, when Buffy and the others hug her after they discover she isn't a vampire
"It was exactly you, Will, every detail. Except for your not being a dominatrix. As far as we know."
"Oh, right. Me and Oz play 'Mistress of Pain' every night."
"Did anyone else just go to a scary visual place?"
-Buffy, Willow, and Xander
"Buffy, I... I just... Something's happened that... Willow's dead. Hey, Willow. Wait a second."
"We're right there with you, buddy."
-Angel and Xander
"It's horrible! That's me as a vampire? I'm so evil and... skanky. And I think I'm kinda gay."
"Willow, just remember, a vampire's personality has nothing to do with the person it was."
"Well, actually... That's a good point."
-Willow, Buffy, and Angel, talking about Evil Willow Enemies
"Look, I know you only did what I asked. And we, we got what we wanted."
"I never wanted it to go that far."
"I know that. It's not even a question of that. It's just, after ... I need a little bit of a break. Please."
"You still my girl?"
"Always."
-Buffy and Angel
Earshot
"Hogan Martin thinks he's sooo hot! Like we should all be awed by him 'cause he put a ball in the net."
"Hey, Xander!"
"He said my name!! He said my name!!"
-Xander and Hogan
"Hey, I won't let anything happen to you if I can help it. No matter what, I'll always be with you. Hey I'll love you even if you're covered in slime."
"I liked everything till that part."
-Angel and Buffy
"It was intense."
"Yeah for a minute I thought you were gonna make an expression."
"I felt one coming on, I won't lie."
-Oz and Xander
"Kissing her meant nothing. I don't want a bad girl I've done that before. I've lived a long time Buffy, and I'm past that. I've been with dozens of girls like her. More."
"Ohh, this honesty stuff is funnn."
"I mean, there's no comparison. In 243 years, I've loved exactly one person."
"Oh....it is me right?
"Next time, just ask."
"OK"
"And Buffy, be careful with this gift. A lot of things that seem strong and good and powerful, they can be painful."
"Like, say, immortality?"
"Yeah, I'm dying to get rid of that."
"Funny"
"I'm a funny guy."
-Angel and Buffy
"If you don't need me, I'm gonna follow the red-head."
-Oz
"Hi Mr. Beech. I was just wondering, were you planning on killing a bunch of people tomorrow? Oh, its for the yearbook!"
-Cordy
Choices
"You never take me any place new."
"What about that fire demon nest in the cave by the beach? I felt that was a nice change of pace."
"So this is our future? This is how we're going to spend our nights when I'm fifty and you're ... the same age you are now."
"Let's just get you to fifty."
"Liking that plan."
-Buffy and Angel
"Okay, what's in the bag?"
"My lunch."
"Is that the new drug lingo?"
"No, it's my lunch."
-Snyder and a Student
"Everything in life is foreign territory. Kerouac. He's my teacher. The open road is my school."
"Making the open dumpster your cafeteria?"
"Go ahead, mock me."
"I think she just did."
"We Bohemian anti-establishment types have always been persecuted."
"Well, sure. You're all so weird."
-Xander, Buffy, and Oz
"Looks like a job for Wiccan girl. What do you say, Will? Big time danger."
"Hey, I eat danger for breakfast."
"But oddly enough, she panics in the face of breakfast foods."
Buffy, Willow, and Xander
"Well, how can you tell which is which? I mean, they both look kinda stick-figurey to me."
"Well, this one's me. See the little guitar."
"Oh, gotcha."
"Nobody like my Willow."
"No sir, there is not."
-Xander and Oz
"So you're the little girl that's been causing me all this trouble. She's pretty, Angel. A little skinny. Still don't understand why it couldn't work out with you and my Faith. Guess you kind of just have strange taste in women."
"Well, what can I say? I like them sane."
The Mayor and Angel
"Sunnydale's not bad. A-And I can design my own curriculum."
"Okay, well, there are safer schools. There are safer prisons. I can't let you stay because of me."
"Actually, this isn't about you. Although I'm fond, don't get me wrong, of you. The other night, you know, being captured and all, facing off with Faith. Things just, kind of, got clear. I mean, you've been fighting evil here for three years, and I've helped some, and now we're supposed to decide what we want to do with our lives. And I just realized that that's what I want to do. Fight evil, help people. I mean, I-I think it's worth doing. And I don't think you do it because you have to. It's a good fight, Buffy, and I want in."
"I kind of love you."
-Willow and Buffy
"I don't know what the Mayor was talking about. How could he know anything about us?"
"Well, he's evil."
"Big time. He doesn't even know what a lasting relationship is.'
"No."
"Probably the only lasting relationship he's ever had is with evil."
"Yeah."
"Big, stupid, evil guy. We'll be okay."
"We will."
-Buffy and Angel
The Prom
"What? Do I have funny bed hair or something?"
"Or something?"
"I guess we got a little carried away with the whole post-slayage nap thing. Ohhh, not good."
"Where you going?"
"To go kill a cat on my head."
-Buffy and Angel
"Anya, huh? Interesting choice."
"Choice is kind of a broad term for my situation. See, it's either Anya or the sock puppet of love for this boy. [Speaking as the sock puppet] 'I love you, Xander. I'll never leave you.'"
"Well, if Anya tries to get you killed, put me down for a big 'I told you so.'"
[Puppet] "'Who's this Anya? Is she prettier than me?'"
-Oz, Xander, and Willow
"Well, at least we all have someone to go with now. Some of us are going with demons, but I think that's a valid lifestyle choice. More importantly, I have the kick dress."
"Ooh, the pink one?"
"Angel's gonna lose it. But not his soul. He's gonna lose it. His it."
-Buffy and Willow
"So it was blue and sorta short."
"Not too short, medium. And it had this weird, sorta fringey stuff on its arms."
"What's that, a demon?"
"A prom dress that Will was thinking of getting. Can't you ever get your mind out of the hellmouth?"
-Buffy, Willow, and Giles
"I've been thinking... about our future. And the more I do, the more I feel like us, you and me being together, is unfair to you."
"Is this about what the Mayor said? Because he was just trying to shake us up."
"He was right."
"No. No, he wasn't. He's the bad guy."
"You deserve more. You deserve something outside of demons and darkness. You should be with someone who can take you into the light. Someone who can make love to you."
"I don't care about that."
"You will. And children."
"Children? Can you say jumping the gun? I kill my goldfish."
"Today. But you have no idea how fast it goes, Buffy. Before you know it, you'll want it all, a normal life."
"I'll never have a normal life."
"Right, you'll always be a Slayer. But that's all the more reason why you should have a real relationship instead of this, this freak show. I didn't mean that."
"I'm gonna go."
"I'm sorry. Buffy, you know how much I love you. It kills me to say this."
"Then don't. Who are you to tell me what's right for me? You think I haven't thought about this? "
"Have you, rationally?"
"No. No, of course not. I'm just some swoony little schoolgirl, right?"
"I'm trying to do what's right here, okay? I'm trying to think with my head instead of my heart."
"Heart? You have a heart? It isn't even beating!"
"Don't."
"Don't what? Don't love you? I'm sorry. You know what? I didn't know that I got a choice in that. I'm never gonna change. I can't change. I want my life to be with you."
"I don't."
"You don't want to be with me? I can't believe you're breaking up with me."
"It doesn't mean that I don't ..."
"How am I supposed to stay away from you?"
"I'm leaving. After the Ascension, after it's finished with the Mayor and Faith. If we survive, I'll go."
"Where?"
"I don't know."
"Is this really happening?"
-Angel and Buffy
"Angel's not taking you, is he?"
"Angel's leaving me. He's leaving town."
"Oh, Buffy, I'm sorry. I don't really know what to say. Um, I understand that this sort of thing requires ice cream of some kind?"
"Ice cream will come. First, I want to take out psycho boy."
"You sure?"
"The great thing about being a Slayer, kicking ass is comfort food."
-Giles and Buffy
"You did good work tonight, Buffy."
"And I got a little toy surprise."
"I had no idea that children en masse could be gracious."
"Every now and then, people surprise you."
"Every now and then."
-Giles and Buffy
"I never thought you'd come."
"It's a big night. I didn't want to miss it. It's just tonight. It doesn't mean that I ..."
"I know. I mean, I understand."
"Dance with me?"
-Buffy and Angel
Graduation Day (Part 1)
"The Council's orders are to concentrate on ..."
"Orders? I don't think I'm gonna be taking any more orders. Not from you, not from them."
"You can't turn your back on the Council."
"They're in England. I don't think they can tell which way my back is facing."
"Giles, talk to her."
"I've nothing to say right now."
"Wesley, go back to your Council and tell them, until the next Slayer comes along, they can close up shop. I'm not working for them anymore."
"Don't you see what's happening? Faith poisoned Angel to distract you, to keep you out of the Mayor's way, and it's working. You need a strategy."
"I have a strategy. You're not in it."
"This is mutiny."
"I like to think of it as graduation."
-Wesley, Buffy, and Giles
"The only way to cure this thing is to drain the blood of a Slayer."
"Good."
"Good? What did I miss?"
"No, it's perfect. Angel needs to drain a Slayer, then I'll bring him one."
"Buffy, if Angel drains Faith's blood, it'll kill her."
"Not if she's already dead."
-Oz, Buffy, Xander, and Willow
Graduation Day (Part 2)
"I personally don't think it's possible to come up with a crazier plan."
"We attack the Mayor with humus."
"I stand corrected."
-Cordelia and oz
"Well, I'm going to need every single one of you on board. Especially you Xander. You're sort of the key figure here."
"Key? Me? Okay, - pride, - humility, - and here's the mind numbing fear.
-Buffy and Xander
"Of course, that's it. We attack him with germs!"
"Great, we'll corner him and then you can sneeze on him."
"No! No, we'll get a box with the Ebola virus and... and.... Or it doesn't even have to be real, we can just get a box that says Ebola on it and... umm chase him... with the box..."
"I'm starting to lean towards the humus offensive."
"He'll never see it coming."
-Cordelia, Buffy, Xander, and Oz
"That puts me back into the game."
"Yea, it does. You and Xander are going to have to work together now. Can you guys handle that?"
"But I'm still key-guy, right?"
"Right."
"Then Angel, - in his non key-guy capacity, - can work with me."
"What fun."
"Hey! Key-guy is still talking..."
"Oh, that's good! Start bickering. That's going to look great for us. You guys are like little old ladies!"
-Angel, Buffy, and Xander
"I'm not going to say good-bye. If we get through this... - I'm just going to go. You understand? There's just too much to..."
-Angel
"I haven't processed everything yet. (with a small laugh) My brain isn't really functioning on the higher levels. It's pretty much: fire bad; tree pretty."
"Understandable. Well, when it's working again congratulate it on a good campaign. You did very well."
"Thank you. I will."
"I ah - I managed to fish this out of the wreckage. Now, it may not interest you, but... I'd say you earned it."
"There is a certain dramatic irony that's attached to all this. A Synchronicity that borders on - on predestination, one might say."
"Fire bad; tree pretty.'
"Yes, s-sorry. I'm going to see to Wesley, see if he's - is still - whimpering."
-Buffy and Giles
"Guys take a moment to deal with this - we survived."
"It was a hell of a battle!"
"Not the battle, high school. ... We're taking a moment ... and we're done."
-Oz and Buffy
