from Potential (Season 7)
Next Clip in Episode

BUFFY: A vampire is an animal. Sometimes they run in packs, sometimes alone. Who can tell us where we are?

RONA: It's a nest.

BUFFY: How can you tell?

KENNEDY: Only a vamp could live like this.

SPIKE: Some, yeah. As a group, we're not known for our tasteful decor, but in all fairness to the race, this place is seriously lacking in style.

BUFFY: Thank you, Spike.

SPIKE: I'm merely saying...

BUFFY: He has a point. Vampires can live anywhere. Any way they want. Taste, fashions, living conditions?they can vary. The animal inside, always the same.

MOLLY: (to Spike) Where'd you live?

SPIKE: What, you mean before? A crypt actually, but nicer. A bit more?I don't know if posh is the right word, but it was more like?

BUFFY: Comfy.

KENNEDY: Excuse me? When did you find it comfy?

BUFFY: Moving on. You want to stay alive, you have to spot and identify a nest on site. Look around, all of you. Look for signs that just last night maybe a dozen, two dozen vampires were right where we're standing. Go ahead.

SPIKE: (to Buffy, while girls are searching) Work, work, work. This little excursion was just in danger of being interesting.

BUFFY: You know what, Spike? (looks over to see the girls have gathered around, inspecting something on the floor) Interesting is not a problem.

RONA: Buffy, I think we found something.

MOLLY: It's a body.

BUFFY: It's not a body. It's leftovers.

(...)

BUFFY: No one's safe. Not here, not ever. See this guy?

KENNEDY: B-but he was dead a minute ago.

BUFFY: That was a minute ago. Now...

VAMPIRE: (angrily) Hey!

BUFFY: ... he's the enemy.
