FAITH: It's not like I wasn't trying, okay?

MAYOR: Hey, there's no need to convince me. I'm sure you gave it your level best. I just don't understand what that boy could be thinking?

FAITH: Try Buffy Summers, like in a big, fat, one track way.

MAYOR: Hey, come on, don't be discouraged. You're a bright, young, energetic girl with a whole life ahead of her. And I won't tolerate brooding. So you couldn't give him that one moment of true happiness.

FAITH: I was thinking more along the lines of a long weekend, but okay.

MAYOR: And he spurns your advances. So be it. There's more than one way to skin a cat. And I happen to know that's factually true. We want to take Angel's soul away. If we can't do it by giving him happiness, well, by golly, we'll just have to do it in the most painful way imaginable.
