BUFFY: What do you think?

XANDER: That depends. Are you in any way kidding?

BUFFY: You don?t think it?s a good idea?

FAITH: It?s pretty radical, B.

GILES: It?s a lot more than that. Buffy, what you said? it flies in the face of everything we?ve ever? of what every generation has done in the fight against evil. (beat) I think it?s bloody brilliant.

BUFFY: You mean that?

GILES: If you want my opinion.

BUFFY: Really do.

WILLOW: Whoa, hey! Not to poop on the party here but I?m the guy who?s going to have to pull this thing off.

FAITH: It is beaucoup d?mojo.

WILLOW: This goes beyond anything I?ve ever done. It?s a total loss of control and not in a nice, wholesome, ?my girlfriend has a pierced tongue? kind of way.

BUFFY: I wouldn?t ask if I didn?t think you could do it.

WILLOW: I?m not sure that I?m stable enough.

GILES: You can do this, Willow. We?ll get the coven on the line and we?ll find out how they can help.

DAWN: (realizes) Oh! Pierced tongue.

BUFFY: (urgent; to Giles) Dawn needs to do a research thing!

GILES: (to Dawn) Yes, you do.

DAWN: It?s cool. Watcher Junior to the library.

GILES: (to Buffy) I?ll go dig up my sources. Quite literally, actually. There one or two people I have to speak to who are dead.

ANYA: (to Xander) Come on. Let?s go assemble the cannon fodder.

XANDER: That?s not what we?re calling them, sweetie.

ANYA: Not to their faces. What am I? insensitive?
