>Dawn (smiles): "Did I just pull a Slayer-related Mom cover-up thing? Come on, who's the man?"
Buffy: "You are. A very short, annoying man."
>(Riley moves stealthily among the headstones; pauses behind a large marble slab; raises his arm, fist closed, and pumps it up and down twice before moving further into the cemetery; Willow, Anya & Xander follow behind him, munching potato chips; making no effort to conceal themselves)
Xander (to Willow): "What's with the hand move? Does that like mean something?"
Willow: "It's code. I think it breaks down to 'choo-choo'." (mimics pulling a train whistle)
Anya: "It means to follow him. That, or wait here for him."
(They watch Riley's covert movements for a moment; Willow turns to Xander)
Willow: "Ask."
Xander (yells): "Hey, Riley! What's the hand gesture all about?"
Riley (exasperated): "It means yell real loud so the vampires who don't know we're coming will have a sporting chance."
Xander (to Willow): "See, now he's all mean and sarcastic."
Willow: "That's because you were doing all the yelling, Mr. Stealthy-Pants."
>Buffy: "Were you born this big a pain in the ass?"
Spike: "What can I tell you, baby? I've always been bad."
>Spike: "I know I'm a bad poet but I'm a good man and all I ask is that... that you try to see me."
Cicely: "I do see you. That's the problem. You're nothing to me, William. You're beneath me."
>Angelus: "You've got me and my woman hiding in the luxury of a mine shaft, all because William the Bloody likes the attention. This is not a reputation we need."
Spike: "Oh, I'm sorry. Did I sully our good name? We're vampires."
>Darla (sing-song; to Drusilla; re Angelus & Spike): "I think our boys are going to fight."
(Drusilla claps her hands giddily)
Drusilla: "The King of Cups expects a picnic! But this is not his birthday."
Darla: "Good point."
>Spike (re Slayers): "Lesson the second: ask the right questions. You want to know how I beat 'em? The question isn't 'How'd I win'? The question is 'Why'd they lose'?"
>Spike (to Buffy; voiceover): "Every day you wake up, it's the same bloody question that haunts you: is today the day I die? Death is on your heals, baby, and sooner or later it's gonna catch you. And part of you wants it... not only to stop the fear and uncertainty, but because you're just a little bit in love with it. Death is your art. You make it with your hands, day after day. That final gasp. That look of peace. Part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. Every Slayer... has a death wish. Even you."
>Spike: "Come on. I can feel it, Slayer. You know you want to dance."
Buffy: "Say it's true. Say I do want to. It wouldn't be you, Spike. It would never be you. You're beneath me."
