Spike
- Big Ugly: When I kill her, it'll be the greatest event since the Crucifixion. And I should know. I was there.
- Spike: You were there? Oh, please! If every vampire who said he was at the Crucifixion was actually there, it would have been like Woodstock.
- Big Ugly: I oughta rip your throat out.
- Spike: I was actually at Woodstock. That was a weird gig. I fed off a flower person, and I spent the next six hours watchin' my hand move.
- Buffy Summers: Do we really need weapons for this?
- Spike: I just like them. They make me feel all manly.
- Spike: So. How 'bout this Slayer? Is she tough?
- [Cut to Buffy's room. She's standing at her mirror, trying to brush her hair]
- Buffy Summers: Ow!
- Joyce Summers: What's wrong?
- Buffy Summers: I spent a good part of my allowance on this new cream rinse, and it's neither creamy nor rinsey.
- Joyce Summers: Life is hard, dear.
- Buffy Summers: Don't I know it.
- [studies her image critically]
- Buffy Summers: Is that a split end?
- Joyce Summers: I got the mail.
- Buffy Summers: Good.
- Joyce Summers: Which included a reminder notice about Parent-Teacher night. Thursday.
- Buffy Summers: [in trepidation] That's good.
- Joyce Summers: Which you were planning on telling me about...?
- Buffy Summers: Oh, for... the last two weeks.
- Joyce Summers: Uh-huh. So, what do you think your teachers are gonna tell me about you?
- Buffy Summers: Well, I think they'll all agree that I always bring a pen to class, ready to absorb the knowledge.
- Joyce Summers: And, uh, this absorption rate? How is it reflected in your homework and test scores?
- Buffy Summers: What can you really tell about a person from a test score?
- Joyce Summers: Whether or not she's ever going out with her friends again.
- [Buffy blanches]
- Joyce Summers: Well, I'm looking forward to meeting your new principal.
- Buffy Summers: Won't that be something?
- [after watching Buffy slay a vampire, Spike comes out of the shadows, slowly clapping his hands]
- Spike: Nice work, love.
- Buffy Summers: Who are you?
- Spike: You'll find out on Saturday.
- Buffy Summers: What happens on Saturday?
- Spike: I kill you.
- [last lines]
- Spike: How's the Annoying One?
- Drusilla: He doesn't wanna play.
- Spike: It figures. Well, I suppose I'd better go make nice.
- [He walks over to the Anointed One and kneels before him]
- The Anointed One: You failed.
- Spike: I, um... I offer penance.
- Vampire: Penance? You should lay down your life! Our numbers are depleted. The Feast of St. Vigeous has been ruined by your impatience!
- Spike: I was rash... And if I had to do it all over again...
- [laughs]
- Spike: Who am I kidding? I would do it exactly the same, only I'd do this...
- [grabs the Anointed One]
- The Anointed One: No!
- Spike: ...first!
- [Spike sticks The Anointed One in the nearby cage and starts pulling a chain, lifting the cage up from the floor]
- Spike: From now on, we're gonna have a little less ritual... and a little more fun around here.
- [the cage is lifted into the sunlight. The Anointed One screams as he dies]
- Spike: Let's see what's on TV.
- Spike: Me and Dru, we're movin' in... Now... Any of you wanna test who's got the biggest wrinklies 'round here... step on up.
- [to The Anointed One]
- Spike: I'll do your Slayer for you. But you keep your flunkies from tryin' anything behind my back. Deal?
- [the Anointed One nods]
- Drusilla: I can't see her. The Slayer. I can't see. It's dark where she is. Kill her. Kill her, Spike. Kill her for me?
- Spike: It's done, baby.
- Drusilla: Kill her for Princess?
- Spike: I'll chop her into messes.
- [to the remains of the Order of Aurelius]
- Spike: Do you know what I find works real good with Slayers? Killing them.
- Spike: I'll tell you what. As a personal favor from me to you, I'll make it quick. It won't hurt a bit.
- Buffy Summers: No, Spike. It's gonna hurt a lot.
- Buffy Summers: You shouldn't have come here.
- Spike: No. I messed up your doilies and stuff. But I just got so bored.
