Fred: Okay, so - maybe you got a beast in you. But I know what it's like to be squirrelly and a freak with no one to... (spins to face Angel) Does it taste like oatmeal?
Angel hurriedly shoves a spoonful in his mouth.
Fred: I-I forget what things are supposed to taste like.
Angel: Tastes good.
Fred takes a step closer and yells 'Tacos!' making Angel jump.
Fred: Sorry. I didn't mean to holler at you. (Sits down beside Angel) I love tacos. Do they still have them? You know, back...
Angel: ...home? Yeah, they didn't outlaw tacos.

GILES: Quite extraordinary really.
BUFFYBOT: Thank you. But I really think we should be listening to the other Buffy, Guy-les. She's very smart and she's gonna help us save Spike.
GILES: Guy-les? Spike didn't even bother to program my name properly.
BUFFY: Listen, skirt girl, we are not going to save him. We're going to kill him. He knows who the key is, and there's no way he's not telling Glory.
BUFFYBOT: You're right. He's evil. But you should see him naked. I mean really.
BUFFY: Okay, guys, split up and spread out. Check the priciest-looking places first. Xander, you come with me. Willow, Anya, stick together, and Guy-les... Giles-you can watch... it.

ANDREW: Does Buffy know?
XANDER: She didn’t take her phone.
ANDREW: Incommunicado.
WILLOW: Well, we’ll tell her as soon as she gets back.
DAWN: Let’s not.
WILLOW: What? Dawn, she has to know.
DAWN: I know. Just not right away. (beat) Guys, when Mom appeared to me she said—
WILLOW: Dawnie…
DAWN: No, please. She said something about Buffy and I’m thinking… I’m just not so sure Buffy will be happy for me.
