BUFFY: (cocky) So. Your power's in your hammer?

(She rushes at him. He backhands her and she flies across the room again, landing next to Xander.)

ANYA: Oh, yeah! I forgot he still has all that troll strength.

OLAF: You shall all die! I will dispense no mercy now!

(Buffy goes for him again)

OLAF: What are you fighting for, minuscule blonde one? Your friends?

(he gestures to Anya comforting Xander)

OLAF: These two? (chuckles) They will never last.

(Buffy's lower lip begins to tremble)

OLAF: Anyanka is very difficult to live with, and he... he's ludicrous and far too breakable. Their love will never last.

(Buffy looks on the verge of tears. She gives a sad little whimper. Then she jumps back in, with renewed purpose.)

WILLOW: She's got him now.

ANYA: (to Xander) Poor baby.

XANDER: You really dated him?

ANYA: (grimaces) Yes.

XANDER: But you like me better, right?

ANYA: (smiles) Yes! Oh, and Willow likes you too, but not in a sexy way, you know, 'cause she's gay. And she's not gonna try to break us up, so, you know, it's all okay.

(They all turn to look at the fighting again.)

BUFFY: Their love... (punch) will last ... (punch) forever!

(punch, sound of Olaf falling to the floor)
