Quotes from "The Body"
>Dawn:  "My nog tastes funny.  I think I got one with rum in it."
Willow:  "That's bad."
Xander:  "Yeah, now Santa's gonna pass you right by, naughty booze hound."
Willow:  "Santa always passes me by.  Something puts him off.  Could be the big honkin menorah."
Tara (to Dawn):  "Oh, did you right him a letter?"
Xander:  "What'd you ask for?"
Dawn:  "Um, guys, hello, puberty?  Sorta figured out the whole no Santa thing."
Anya:  "That's a myth."
Dawn:  "Yeah."
Anya:  "No, I mean, it's a myth that it's a myth.  There is a Santa Claus."
Xander:  "The advantage of having a thousand-year-old girlfriend.  Inside scoop."
Tara:  "There's a Santa Clause?"
Anya:  "Mm-hmm.  Been around since, like, the 1500s.  He wasn't always called Santa, but you know, Christmas night, flying reindeer, coming down the chimney -- all true."
Dawn (smiles hopefully):  "All true?"
Anya:  "Well, he doesn't traditionally bring presents so much as, you know, disemboweled children, but otherwise..."
Tara:  "The reindeer part was nice."

>Anya:  "Are they gonna cut the body open?"
Willow (horrified):  "Oh my god!  Would you just... stop talking?  Just... shut your mouth.  Please."
Anya:  "What am I doing?"
Willow:  "How can you act like that?"
Anya:  "Am I supposed to be changing my clothes a lot?  Is that the helpful thing to do?"
Xander:  "Guys..."
Willow:  "The way you behave -"
Anya:  "Nobody will tell me."
Willow:  "Because it's not okay for you to be asking these things!"
Anya:  "But I don't understand!"  (crying)  "I don't understand how this all happens.  How we go through this.  I mean, I knew her, and then she's, there's just a body, and I don't understand why she just can't get back in it and not be dead anymore.  It's stupid.  It's mortal and stupid.  And, and Xander's crying and not talking, and, and I was haing fruit punch, and I thought, well, Joyce will never have any more fruit punch ever, and she'll never have eggs, or yawn or brush her hair, not ever, and no one will explain to me why."

>Xander:  "The avengers gotta get to the assembly.  We'll go.  We'll deal.  We'll help.  That's what we do.  We help Buffy."

>Buffy:  "Was it sudden?"
Tara:  "What?"
Buffy:  "Your mother."
Tara:  "No... Yes... It's always sudden."
