So, Spike's trigger's been active this entire time? from Lies My Parents Told Me (Season 7) | Next Clip in Episode |
(Spike vamp-faces and lashes out, strangling Buffy, throwing the cot at Dawn)
WILLOW: Dawn!
(Spike recovers, back to himself; later)
SPIKE: Get these sodding things off me. I'm fine.
BUFFY: Don't you think you should take a little time, calm down?
SPIKE: I am calm. (to Giles) This stone of yours is?is out, right? Did its job, so I'm de-triggered, right?
GILES: Spike, what do you remember about the song?
SPIKE: Oh, yeah, the song. It's called, uh, "Early One Morning." Old folk ditty.
PRINCIPAL WOOD: What's it mean to you?
SPIKE: Mean? Nothing. It's just, uh, my mum. It was her favorite. She used to sing it to me... (uncomfortable) when I was a baby.
GILES: And...?
SPIKE: No "and." That's it. Look, shouldn't you check on Dawnie? I clocked the niblet pretty fierce.
BUFFY: She'll be OK. She's tough.
(cut to Dawn)
DAWN: Ow!
WILLOW: I'm sorry. Doesn't look like anything's broken?
DAWN: Did you use some sort of a magic x-ray?
WILLOW: No, that's just what people usually say.
KENNEDY: So, Spike's trigger's been active this entire time?
RONA: How can Buffy take this for granted? I mean, he lives in our house, we train with him.
ANYA: Don't waste your time down that road. Spike's got some sort of "Get Out of Jail Free" card that doesn't apply to the rest of us. I mean, he could slaughter a hundred frat boys, and? (everyone looks at Anya disapprovingly; Anya laughs it off) Forgiveness makes us human. blah-dee-blah-blah-blah.
ANDREW: (holding the phone) Uh, Willow...call for you from L.A. Somebody named Fred. The guy sounds kind of effeminate.
