DAWN: Don't you knock?

BUFFY: I called for you.

DAWN: Buffy, are you okay?

BUFFY: Where are you going?

DAWN: I'm going over to Janice's, where they actually like having me around.

BUFFY: You're not going anywhere.

DAWN: Why not? You want me gone anyway, what do you care?

BUFFY: I care. You're going downstairs with the others. It's the only way I can get healthy.

DAWN: What are you talking about? (concerned) Buffy, you look sick. (scared) What are you doing? What's wrong with you? (screaming) Get away from me! Willow, help! Buffy, please!

BUFFY: You can't hide, Dawn.

DAWN: Talk to me. You're hallucinating!

BUFFY: I know, you're just a trap for my mind.

DAWN: Buffy, please listen to me. That asylum and those people, they're not real. (Buffy corners her) Buffy, look at me. I'm right here. You're my sister. I need you and love you. Somewhere inside you must know that's real.

BUFFY: Sure it is. 'Cause what's more real? A sick girl in an institution?

DAWN: Don't. Please, listen to me.

BUFFY: Or some kind of super girl, chosen to fight demons and save the world. That's ridiculous. A girl who sleeps with a vampire she hates. Yeah, that makes sense.

DAWN: No. Buffy, stop, I'm real! Buffy, stop it. I'll be good, I promise. You're not thinking... (Buffy duct-tapes her mouth)
