Spike
- Spike: What's happening?
- General: Miss Summers. Agent Finn reported that you tried to contact him earlier today.
- Buffy Summers: I knew it!
- [to Spike]
- Buffy Summers: Government conspiracy.
- General: He indicated you might be needing our assistance. We're to provide you anything you need to help with "assface" here.
- [Buffy and Spike stare at him]
- General: Those were his exact words, ma'am.
- Buffy Summers: There's gotta be a reason why the chip is going all wonky. Maybe it's related to the trigger. Or maybe it has something to do with the new soul.
- Spike: Or maybe I wasn't meant to last this long.
- [pause]
- Spike: One more thing you and I have in common, eh, pet?
- Buffy Summers: Well, we'll fix it. We'll hit serious research mode.
- Spike: Good. Try behavior modification software throughout the ages.
- Buffy Summers: [sighs] Okay. You're right. Not a book thing.
- [pauses, comes to a realization]
- Buffy Summers: It's a phone thing.
- Spike: Who ya gonna call...? God, that phrase is never gonna be usable again, is it?
- Buffy Summers: Doubt it.
- Buffy Summers: Giles is off on the retreat.
- Spike: Give us all a chance for a breather, eh?
- Buffy Summers: From Giles?
- Spike: From the constant pitter-patter of clomping teenage girlie feet.
- Buffy Summers: I have no idea what you're talking about.
- Spike: Come off it.
- Buffy Summers: No, I enjoy my responsibility as mentor, role model, life guide. Oh, my God. I cannot believe I have my bathroom all to myself for two whole days.
- Spike: It's like a bloody war zone up there, and not in the good way.
- Buffy Summers: Have you seen the kitchen since they've been here?
