Quotes 

• Xander Harris : 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.

  Willow Rosenberg : Darn tootin'.

  Xander Harris : And they burst in rescuing us, without even *knocking*? I mean, this is really all their fault.

  Buffy Summers : Your logic does *not* resemble our Earth logic.

  Xander Harris : Mine is much more advanced.

• Angel : The Master rose. He let me live... to punish me. I kept hopin' maybe you'd come... My destiny.

  Buffy Summers : Is this a get-in-my-pants thing? You guys in Sunnydale talk like I'm the Second Coming.

• Rupert Giles : [reading]  "In order to defeat Anyanka, one must destroy her power center. This should reverse all the wishes she's granted rendering her mortal and powerless again." You see? Without her power center, she-she'd j-just be a-a-an ordinary woman again. And all this would be, um... well, different... Well, I'd say that my... my Watcher muscles haven't completely atrophied after all.

  Buffy Summers : [sarcastic]  Great. What's her power center?

  Rupert Giles : [checks the book]  Um, well, um, uh... It doesn't say.

  Buffy Summers : Why don't I just put a stake through her heart?

  Rupert Giles : She's not a vampire.

  Buffy Summers : Well, you'd be surprised how many things that'll kill.

  Rupert Giles : I don't want to kill her, Miss Summers. I want to reverse whatever effect she's had on this-this world.

  Buffy Summers : [sighs]  You're taking an awful lot on faith here, Jeeves.

  Rupert Giles : Giles.

  Buffy Summers : Kill the bad fairy, destroy the bad fairy's power center, whatever... and all the troubles go away?

• Angel : What's the plan?

  Buffy Summers : [holding a stake]  Don't fall on this.

• Buffy Summers : World is what it is. We fight. We die. Wishing doesn't change that.

  Rupert Giles : I have to believe in a better world.

  Buffy Summers : Go ahead. I have to live in this one.

• Buffy Summers : I don't play well with others. Now, I'm gonna ask you this once, and then I'm gonna get testy.

• Xander Harris : Excuse me. I need to be both giving and receiving of mirth. Is it too much to ask for a little backup?

  Buffy Summers : I'm here for you Xand. I'm Support-O-Gal.

  [as Buffy is being choked by a demon] 

  Buffy Summers : Nnnfrr...! Nnnfrr...!

  Willow Rosenberg : Oh, God! Demon! Demon! What kills a demon?

  Buffy Summers : Nnnfrr...! Nnnfrr!

  Willow Rosenberg : Oh, Nerf! Not Nerf! Knife!

• Buffy Summers : Okay. That was too close for comfort. Not that slaying's ever comfy, but... you know what I mean.
