Quotes8

  • Spike: I know you'll never love me.
  • [Buffy turns to look at him]
  • Spike: I know that I'm a monster. But you treat me like a man, and that's...
  • [she gazes at him without speaking]
  • Spike: Get your stuff. I'll be here.
  • [Standing before the gang as they prepare to leave to fight Glory]
  • Buffy Summers: Remember, the ritual starts, we all die. And I'll kill anyone who comes near Dawn.
  • [turns and leaves the room]
  • Spike: Well, not exactly the St. Crispin's Day speech, was it?
  • Rupert Giles: "We few, we happy few..."
  • Spike: ...we band of buggered.
  • Buffy Summers: We're not all gonna make it. You know that.
  • Spike: Yeah... Hey, always knew I'd go down fightin'.
  • Buffy Summers: I'm counting on you... to protect her.
  • Spike: Till the end of the world... Even if that happens to be tonight.
  • Spike: You don't come near the girl, Doc.
  • Doc: I don't smell a soul anywhere on you. Why do you even care?
  • Spike: I made a promise to a lady.
  • Xander Harris: Hey, I happen to be...
  • Spike: A glorified bricklayer?
  • Xander Harris: I'm also a swell bowler.
  • Anya: Has his own shoes.
  • Spike: The gods themselves do tremble.
  • Spike: Blood is life, lack-brain. Why do you think we eat it? It's what keeps you going, makes you warm, makes you hard, makes you other than dead.
  • [as the group ponders how to stop Glory]
  • Anya: Okay. But I'm still not hearing enough ideas. She's a God. Let's think outside the box.
  • Spike: Why don't you go think outside the bleeding box.
  • Rupert Giles: Yes, Anya, apart from your incredibly uninfectious enthusiasm, have you anything else to contribute?
  • Anya: The Dagon Sphere!
  • Rupert Giles: Sorry?
  • Anya: When Buffy first met Glory she found that magical, glowy sphere that was meant to repel Glory. We've got it in the basement. It might drive her away or hurt her. Oh! And Olaf the Troll God's enchanted hammer. You wanna fight a god, use the weapon of a god.
  • Spike: Uh, nah, that thing's too heavy to...
  • [Buffy easily picks up the hammer]
  • Spike: Yeah, good.
  • Buffy Summers: I like this. Thanks.
  • Anya: Here to help. Wanna live.
  • Spike: Doesn't a fella stay dead when you kill him?
  • Doc: Look who's talking.
