come wander through the BuffyVerse...| Snyder: Children everywhere. Like locusts. from When She Was Bad (Season 2) | Next Clip in Episode |
SNYDER: The first day back. It always gets me.
GILES: Yes.
SNYDER: I mean, it's incredible. One day the campus is completely bare. Empty. The next, there are children everywhere. Like locusts. Crawling around, mindlessly bent on feeding and mating. Destroying everything in sight in their relentless, pointless desire to exist.
GILES: I do enjoy these pep talks. Have you ever considered, given your abhorrence of children, school's principal was not, perhaps, your true vocation?
SNYDER: Somebody's got to keep an eye on them. They're just a bunch of hormonal time bombs. Every time a pretty girl walks by every boy turns into a gibbering fool.
GILES: Ms. Calendar!
JENNY: Mr. Giles!
GILES: Well, I, uh, um... Hello!
SNYDER: You see the way these kids gaze at each other... all moony.
JENNY: It's good to see you.
GILES: Yes.
SNYDER: You think they're thinking about learning?
GILES: Uh, were you headed to the, uh, faculty room?
JENNY: Sounds like fun!
(They head off to the faculty room leaving Snyder behind.)
SNYDER: I try and tell 'em about the important things in life. Discipline, responsibility, punctuality. Might as well be talking to myself.
