Episode Quotes
 
Riley: Oh, yeah. Having the inside scoop on the administration's own bay of mutated pigs is definitely an advantage.
Willow: It's like you're blackmailing the government. In a... patriotic way.
 
Xander: Dinner is served. And my very own recipe.
Willow: Ooh, you pushed the button on the microwave that says "popcorn"?
Xander: Actually, I pushed "defrost", but Joyce was there in the clinch.
 
Willow: This isn't Madame Butterfly, is it? Because I have a whole problem with opera.
 
Giles: Now, costumes, sets... um, the things that, you know, um, you hold them, you touch them, use them, um...
Harmony: Props?
Giles: No.
Riley: Props?
Giles: Yes.
 
Tara: Things aren't going very well.
Willow: No! This drama class is just... I think they're really not just doing things in the proper way, and now I'm in a play, and my whole family's out there, and why is there a cowboy in Death of A Salesman, anyway?
 
Willow: I don't know why it's after me.
Buffy: Well, you must have done something.
Willow: No, I never do anything. I'm very seldom naughty.
 
Spike: Giles here is gonna teach me to be a Watcher. Says I got the stuff.
Giles: Spike's like a son to me.
 
Xander: You gotta have something. Gotta be with moving forward.
Buffy: Like a shark.
Xander: Like a shark with feet and... much less fins.
Spike: And on land.
Giles: Very good!
 
Xander: (to Snyder) You know, I never got the chance to tell you how glad I was you were eaten by a snake.
 
Anya: (while telling a joke) Quiet! You'll miss the humorous conclusion.
 
Giles: (singing) And try not to bleed on my couch, I just had it steam-cleaned.
 
Buffy: I think I need to find the others.
Tara: Be back before dawn.
 
Buffy: How did the de-briefing go?
Riley: I told you not to worry about that. It went great. They made me Surgeon General.
 
Intercom: The demons have escaped. Please run for your lives.
Adam: This could be trouble.
Riley: We'd better make a fort.
Adam: I'll get some pillows.
 
Tara: The Slayer does not walk in this world.
Buffy: I walk. I talk. I shop. I sneeze. I'm gonna be a fireman when the flood rolls back.
 
Buffy: (to the First Slayer) Are you quite finished? It's over, okay? I'm going to ignore you, and you're going to go away. You're really going to have to get over the whole primal power thing. You're not the source of me. Also, in terms of hair care, you really want to say, what kind of impression am I making in the workplace? 'Cause...
 
Willow: The first Slayer. Wow.
Xander: Not big with the socialization.
Willow: Or the floss.
 
Buffy: You know, you could have brought that up to us before we did it.
Giles: I did! I said there could be dire consequences.
Buffy: Yes, but you say that about chewing too fast.
 
Buffy: Well, at least you all didn't dream about that guy with the cheese. I don't know where the hell that came from.
