BUFFY: Anya?

ANYA: It's such a pain. The text I wanted, Giles took it with him. He has this thing that ... owning a book makes it like his property.

BUFFY: What should we do, should we call him? It's like the middle of last night there. Or maybe it's tomorrow. Anyone remember how that works?

WILLOW: That's okay, no one freak. We'll just do it another way. (reaches for her bag)

BUFFY: I-I don't think we need to resort to ... I mean... (realizes Willow's going for her laptop) Oh. Hey, cool.

XANDER: All right, back to basics. A little old-fashioned state-of-the-art hacker action.

BUFFY: That's great, Will, I haven't seen you do that in a long time. (Willow uses magic instead of typing)(to Xander) I-I don't remember that part.

WILLOW: It's quicker. It'll just take me a sec to go through the files. Okay. Internal police report. A diamond was stolen from the museum last night. A big one. On loan from the British museum. They're withholding information to smoke out the criminals. Oh! It's pretty. There's a picture.

BUFFY: Well, is it a, a supernatural diamond? You know, like, healing powers, or, or good-lucky?

ANYA: Maybe it's cursed. Diamonds are excellent for cursing.

WILLOW: Well, we'll keep checking, shall we?
