GILES: 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.

BUFFY: Well, I gotta look on the bright side. Maybe I can still get kicked out of school.
XANDER: Hey, that’s a plan. ‘Cause a lot of schools aren’t on Hellmouths.
WILLOW: Maybe you could blow something up. They’re really strict about that.
BUFFY: I was aiming for a subtle approach, like excessive not studying.
GILES: The earth is doomed.

XANDER: See, it’s the eye-patch thing.
BUFFY: Right, do you go with the full black secret agent look —

ETHAN: No, no, no! Wait! Hang on! You-you can beat the crap out of me. Go ahead, I can’t stop you! Or-or you can listen to what I have to say. Find out what’s going on.
