BUFFYBOT: Would you like to test me again?

GILES: No, perhaps we should call it a day. Your ... your responses are fine. Perhaps Anya's right. Perhaps I am trying to teach you as if you were...

BUFFYBOT: Human?

GILES: Yes.

BUFFYBOT: I like your teachings. Every Slayer needs her Watcher.

GILES: I'm not so sure about that.

BUFFYBOT: What do you mean?

GILES: Nothing. I just can't help but wonder if ... she would have been better off without me. Buffy.

BUFFYBOT: I don't think that's true. You were very helpful to her.

GILES: (bitter laugh) Right. Yes, I was a perfect Watcher. I did what any good Watcher would do. Got my Slayer killed in the line of duty.

BUFFYBOT: Oh, that wasn't your fault.

GILES: Of course not. That's how all Slayer/Watcher relationships end, isn't it? She's gone. I did my job.

BUFFYBOT: (innocently) Well, then why are you still here?
