(graveyard)

SPIKE: Oh look Jonathan. Taking the little sidekick out for a walk, are we?

BUFFY: Shut up Spike.

SPIKE: Ooh ooh ooh! Semi harsh language from Betty! You're feisty when the big guy standing beside you. Someday sweet slayer. I would love to take you on. See you face the evil alone for once.

JONATHAN: That's enough of the creepy small talk! We're looking for a monster.

SPIKE: Why would I know about that?

JONATHAN: Every demon in this town's gunning for you right now so I figure you're probably keeping pretty good track of them. Big arms, mark on its head... have you seen it?

SPIKE: No. But then again I'm probably lying.

JONATHAN: We're not getting anything out of him.

Buffy lunges forward and shoves Spike back against the crypt again.

Spike (surprised): Hey what are you doing? You're not supposed to do that!

BUFFY: You're pretty much relying on butcher's blood these days right, Spike?

SPIKE: What are you saying?

BUFFY: Just that the butchers in this town respect Jonathan. They do him a favor and you might find yourself getting kind of thirsty.

SPIKE: Look I don't know much, ok. Some vampires got kicked out of a cave in the hills behind park. I don't know what did the kicking out but it's probably pretty big.

JONATHAN: That was very good. Very good.
