(Buffy comes rushing in. )

BUFFY: Spike, I need your help, Dawn is-

(she stops when she spots Dawn)

BUFFY: Here.

DAWN: Spike was just telling a story, a-and he was just at this really cool part-

BUFFY: (to Spike) What the hell is this? What is she doing here?

DAWN: Just hanging out.

BUFFY: (raises eyebrows) Here?

DAWN: Can you please let him finish the story? Then you could do the lecture?

BUFFY: Yeah. Okay. Let's hear the story that Spike is telling my little sister.

SPIKE: (nervous) Right. Yeah. So, uh, I knew the girl was in the coal bin. So I rip it open, very violent, haul her out of there ... (looks at Buffy) and then I give her to a good family in a nice home, (Buffy rolls her eyes) where they're never ever mean to her, and didn't lock her in the coal bin.

DAWN: What? That's so lame!

SPIKE: (to Buffy) I was just about to send her home. I knew you'd be frettin'.

BUFFY: Dawn, get your stuff, we're getting out of here.
