Buffy’s speech to Professor Walsh after she was set up in The I in Team was amended. Here’s the original: “Slick trap you set for me. Sorry to disappoint you, but I killed your two pets. There’s a couple of research grants down the drain. Oh, and about you trying to kill me? I’d say that’s an issue you and I need to discuss. So get ready. I’ll be paying you a visit. Real soon.” |

I definitely prefer the version they used in the episode. I love the line: “If you think that’s enough to kill me, you really don’t know what a Slayer is. Trust me when I say you’re gonna find out.”
I think it reinforces how ignorant Maggie Walsh (and the Initiative as a whole) is to the role and power of a Slayer. They think their own methods of science and technology are the best ways of dealing with the demon world, and they dismiss mythological/supernatural techniques without properly exploring them, thinking of them as inferior compared to their own ways. Oh, how wrong they are :-)
Plus the line sounds so deadly, it’s great.
