 In The Dark Age, Giles says, “And the rest is silence” after Buffy turns off the music she was exercising to. The same line was spoken by Merrick, Buffy’s Watcher in the 1992 movie Buffy the Vampire Slayer as he lay dying. Buffy (Kristy Swanson) also says the line to Lothos towards the end of the movie when she realises what it means. |

Perhaps an allusion to Hamlet’s final words to Horatio in the Shakespeare classic. As he’s dying, Hamlet is shaken by marching and cannon shot offstage.
“What is this warlike noise?”
Then. . .
“O, I die, Horatio!. . .the rest is silence.”
