I was in the library

Giles

The shooting script for Welcome to the Hellmouth included an alternate exchange in the scene when Xander chases after Buffy when she leaves the Bronze to find Willow:

Xander: “Why, you know something about Mr. Goodbar that she doesn’t? Oh! Hey. I hope he’s not a vampire. ‘Cause then you’ve have to slay him.”
She turns back to him, surprised and miffed.
Buffy: “Was there a school bulletin? Was it in the news? Is there anybody in this town who doesn’t know I’m a Slayer?”
Xander: “I only know you think you’re a Slayer, and I only know that ‘cause I was in the library today.”

      Yeah. A wise cut. Unnecessary exposition. We already saw Xander in the library overhearing her argument with Giles. Plus, the line is not exceptionally witty or funny, therefore…cuttiness.

      Wasn’t this line actually in the episode? When they are outside of The Bronze. I clearly remember this exchange.

      Yeah but Xander didn’t say the line about being in the library.
