Buffy: Decoder ring? from What's My Line Part 1 (Season 2) | Next Clip in Episode |
WILLOW: So Giles is sure that the vampire who stole his book is connected to the one you slayed last night? Or is it slew?
GILES: Both are correct, and, yes, I'm sure. Du Lac was both a, a... a theologian and a mathematician. This article describes an invention of his, which he called 'The Du Lac Cross'.
XANDER: So, why go to all the trouble of inventing something, and then giving it a weak name like that? I mean, I'da gone with 'The Cross-o- matic', or, uh, 'The Amazing Mr. Cross'.
GILES: The cross was more than a mere symbol, it was used to understand certain mystical texts, to, uh, decipher hidden meanings and so forth.
BUFFY: So you're saying these vampires went to all this hassle for your basic decoder ring?
GILES: Uh, actually, yes, I, I suppose I am.
