(Willow cannot hear/see Buffy & Xander, and vice-versa. Spike however converses with all 3)

SPIKE: Out! This is my place. You need permission to be here. You need a special slip with a stamp.

WILLOW: Spike. My God... I?

SPIKE: You go off and try to wall up the bad parts and put your heart back in where it fell out. You call yourself finished, but you're not. Worse than ever, you are...

BUFFY: Spike. Spike.

SPIKE: You went away. You've been gone since...

BUFFY: The church. You scared me a little. I didn't?I didn't know what to think.

XANDER: We're here for a reason, Spike.

WILLOW: I needed to go, but I'm back now. And I found... There's a body.

SPIKE: Tragedy. (faces Willow) Is there blood?

WILLOW: Uh, I, Yeah, and I can't find Buffy or Xander or Dawn. And there's this thing killing people. And the victim was... skinned. What could do that?

SPIKE: You did it once. I heard about it.

XANDER: He knows. He must have seen the body.

WILLOW: Anything other?other than me?

BUFFY: Spike, we need to know who did this.

SPIKE: Look at you... glowing. What's a word means "glowing"? Gotta rhyme.

WILLOW: Spike?

BUFFY: Spike, please...

SPIKE: Oh, ah, no. I-I-I should hide. Hide from you. Hide my face. You know what I did.

WILLOW: What you did? You didn't do anything... did you?

XANDER: Boy, he's extra-useful today.

BUFFY: (whispering to Xander) This isn't the time.

SPIKE: Everyone's talking to me. No one's talking to each other.

BUFFY: (to Xander) Might as well go.

WILLOW: Spike, please try to listen to me.

SPIKE: Someone isn't here. Button, button... who's got the button? My money's on (stops and faces Willow) the witch.

(Xander & Buffy turn back)

SPIKE: Red's a bad girl.

BUFFY: He's talking about Willow.

XANDER: And that means something because he's chock-full-o-sanity.

BUFFY: Maybe he saw her.

SPIKE: They think you did it. The slayer and her boy. They think you took the skin.

BUFFY: Is there something here? Something that killed?

XANDER: (offended) Her boy? I'm her boy?

SPIKE: (to Xander & Buffy) I have to go. There are things here without permission. I have to check their slips. Make sure they have authorization.
