ANYA: This must be nice for us.

GILES: Sorry?

ANYA: I mean ... I know there's... ...the vampire problem, and our memory loss, and all that, but still... ...to spend this time together alone? Must be nice.

GILES: Uh, yes, yes, um, I'm sure that's right. Um, which, uh, which book shall we start with?

ANYA: This is the book for us.

GILES: Oh, good. Does it focus on mind control, or-or memory loss?

ANYA: Not exactly, I just, um ... my intuition tells me this is the book. And I figure being a magic shop owner and a natural at the supernatural, I should trust my intuition.

GILES: Y-yes, fine, but as you recall, I too am a magic shop owner.

ANYA: True, but my intuition says that you're not so much the magic guy and more of a paperwork type. Okay, here we go.

GILES: But you don't even know-

ANYA: (reads from book) Bara bara himble gemination.

(a bunny appears, Anya shrieks)

(... later ...)

GILES: Perhaps we should try another book.

(Anya's standing on a chair, surrounded by bunnies)

ANYA: No! This book made the little fluffers, and this book's gonna send 'em back. I've got it this time, okay. (reads) 'Himble abri, abri voyon.'

(Another bunny)

GILES: Yes, dear.

(... later ...)

GILES: Clearly that is not a helpful book, *darling.* Come down, and we will go about fixing this in a sensible fashion!

ANYA: Sensible! You think it's sensible for me to go down into that pit of cotton-top hell, and let them hippity-hop all over my vulnerable flesh?

GILES: Fine, then just stay up there and keep making bunnies! That's a capital plan!

ANYA: What capital? I never know what you're talking about. Loo, shag, brolly, what the hell is all that?

GILES: What? There's no way that you could remember me saying any of those words.

ANYA: Oh, bugger off, you brolly.

(... later...)

GILES: (yells) Get a different book! Put that book down, do you hear? Not ... that... (ducks a sword thrust from an animated skeleton) book!
