BUFFY: Yeah, Spike with Harmony. If you can believe it. I couldn't figure out why he ran away but Harmony said something. Why they were here. They were looking for the gem of something... Amara.

GILES: The gem of amara. Are you sure?

BUFFY: Yeah, what's up?

GILES: Uh, oh, it's just, uh, it's not real. It's uh, the vampire equivalent of the Holy Grail. The source of some enormous power, was convienetly vague. Oh, here it is, yes. There was a great deal of vampiric interest in locating it during the, uh, oh the 10th century. Questing vampires combed the earth, but no one ever found anything.. It was concluded that it never existed.

BUFFY: Well, Spike seems to think it exists. And he's looking in Sunnydale.

GILES: Yes, well I'll research it as best I can. You've done all you can for tonight. Why don't you go to bed.

BUFFY: Uh, huh. Sleepy. Yawn. Bye.
