Quotes 

• Buffy Summers : Okay. I'm cookie dough... I'm not done baking. I'm not finished becoming whoever the hell it is I'm gonna turn out to be. I make it through this, and the next thing, and the next thing, and maybe one day, I turn around and realize I'm ready. I'm cookies. And then, you know, if I want someone to eat m- or enjoy warm, delicious, cookie me, then... that's fine. That'll be then... when I'm done.

  Angel : Any thoughts on who might enjoy... Do I have to go with the cookie analogy?

  Buffy Summers : I'm not really thinking that far ahead. That's kind of the point.

  Angel : I'll go start working on the second front. Make sure I don't have to use it.

  [starts to leave] 

  Buffy Summers : Angel... I do... sometimes think that far ahead.

  Angel : Sometimes is something.

  Buffy Summers : Be a long time coming. Years, if ever.

  Angel : I ain't gettin' any older.

• Buffy Summers : So, what do you guys wanna do tomorrow?

  Willow Rosenberg : Nothing strenuous.

  Xander Harris : Well, mini-golf is always the first thing that comes to mind.

  Rupert Giles : I think we can do better than that.

  Buffy Summers : I was thinking about shopping, as per usual.

  Willow Rosenberg : Oh, there's an "Arden B" in the new mall.

  Xander Harris : Oh, good. I could use a few items.

  Rupert Giles : Well, now aren't we gonna discuss this? Save the world or go to the mall?

  Buffy Summers : I'm having a wicked shoe craving.

  Xander Harris : Aren't you on the patch?

  Willow Rosenberg : Those never work.

  Buffy Summers : Never.

  Rupert Giles : And here I am, invisible to the eye. Not having any vote.

  Xander Harris : See, I need a new look. It's this whole eye patch thing.

  Buffy Summers : Oh! You could go with full black secret-agent look.

  Willow Rosenberg : Or the puffy shirt, pirate slash...

  Rupert Giles : The Earth is *definitely* doomed.

• Buffy Summers : So here's the part where you make a choice. What if you could have that power? Now? In every generation, one Slayer is born, because a bunch of men who died thousands of years ago made up that rule. They were powerful men. This woman...

  [points to Willow] 

  Buffy Summers : is more powerful than all of them combined.

  Willow Rosenberg : Mmm.

  Buffy Summers : So I say we change the rule. I say my power, should be *our* power... Tomorrow, Willow will use the essence of this scythe to change our destiny. From now on, every girl in the world who might be a Slayer, *will* be a Slayer. Every girl who *could* have the power, *will* have the power. Can stand up, will stand up. Slayers. Every one of us. Make your choice... Are you ready to be strong?

• Spike : So, where's tall, dark, and forehead?

  Buffy Summers : Let me guess... You can smell him?

  Spike : Yeah. That, and I also used my enhanced vampire eyeballs to watch you *kissing* him.

  Buffy Summers : It was... a hello

  Spike : Most people don't use their tongues to say hello- Or I guess they do, but...

  Buffy Summers : There were no tongues. Besides, he's gone.

• Willow Rosenberg : Did you find out anything about the scythe?

  Buffy Summers : It slices, dices, and makes julienne preacher.

  Rupert Giles : Caleb?

  Buffy Summers : I cut him in half.

  Willow Rosenberg : All right!

  Anya : He had that coming.

  Xander Harris : Hey, party in my eye socket, and everyone's invited.

  [everyone stares at Xander] 

  Xander Harris : Sometimes I shouldn't say words.

• [Buffy has just sliced Caleb in two from the crotch up just as Angel revives from being hit on the head by Caleb] 

  Angel : Okay. Now I'm pissed. Where is he?

  Buffy Summers : He had to split.

• [Dawn kicks Buffy in the shin] 

  Buffy Summers : Ow.

  Dawn Summers : Dumbass.

  [Buffy looks at Xander] 

  Xander Harris : Don't look at me. This is a Summers thing. It's all very violent.

  Buffy Summers : [to Dawn]  If you get killed, I'm telling.

• Giles : I don't understand. What did this?

  Buffy Summers : Spike.

• Buffy Summers : I hate this. I hate being here. I hate that you have to be here. I hate that there's evil... and that I was chosen to fight it. I wish a whole lot of the time that I hadn't been. I know a lot of you wish I hadn't been, either... This isn't about wishes. This is about choices. I believe we can beat this evil. Not when it comes. Not when its army is ready. Now. Tomorrow morning, I'm opening the seal. I'm going down into the Hellmouth and I am finishing this once and for all. Right now, you're asking yourself what makes this different. What makes us anything more than a bunch of girls being picked off one by one? It's true. None of you have the power that Faith and I do. So here's the part where you make a choice.

• Angel : You know, I started it, the whole "having a soul," before it was all the cool new thing.

  Buffy Summers : Oh, my God. Are you twelve?

• Buffy Summers : What do you think?

  Xander Harris : That depends. Are you in any way... kidding?

  Buffy Summers : You don't think it's a good idea?

  Faith : It's pretty radical, B.

  Rupert Giles : It's a lot more than that. Buffy, what you said, well, it-it-it flies in the face of everything we've ever- every generation has ever done in the fight against evil... I think it's bloody brilliant.

  Buffy Summers : You mean that?

  Rupert Giles : If you want my opinion.

• Buffy Summers : I just realized something. Something that... really never occurred to me before... We're gonna win.

• Angel : I'm gettin' the brush off for Captain Peroxide. It doesn't necessarily bring out the champion in me.

  Buffy Summers : You're not getting the brush off. Ar-Are you just going to come here and go all Dawson on me every time I have a boyfriend?

  Angel : Aha! Boyfriend.

  Buffy Summers : He's not... But... he is in my heart.

  Angel : That'll end well.

  Buffy Summers : What was the highlight of our relationship? When you broke up with me or when I killed you?

• Buffy Summers : Good. Good. I haven't had quite enough jealous vampire crap for one night.

  Spike : [about Angel]  He wears lifts, you know.

  Buffy Summers : You know, one of these days I'm just gonna put you two in a room and let you wrassle it out.

  Spike : No problem at this end.

  Buffy Summers : There could be oil of some kind involved.

• Angel : I got coverage on the whole thing. It's very gripping. It needs a third act.

  Buffy Summers : You *have* to leave L.A.

• Buffy Summers : [as The First]  Oh, no. Ow! Mommy, this mortal wound is all... itchy. You pulled a nice trick. You came pretty close to smacking me down. What more do you want?

  Buffy Summers : [through gritted teeth]  I want you...

  [sits up] 

  Buffy Summers : ... to get out of my face.

  [stands up] 

• Buffy Summers : I love you.

  Spike : No, you don't... But thanks for sayin' it.

• Angel : I, uh, brought something else as well.

  [holds up a necklace] 

  Buffy Summers : I can already tell you I have nothing that goes with that.

  Angel : It's not for you.

  Buffy Summers : Explainy?

  Angel : I don't know everything. It's very powerful and probably very dangerous. Has a purifying power or cleansing power. Possibly scrubbing bubbles.

• Buffy Summers : Well, you know me. Not much with the "damseling."

• Spike : I can feel it, Buffy.

  Buffy Summers : What?

  Spike : My soul... It's really there... Kind of stings.

• Buffy Summers : [to Caleb]  Okay. How many times do I have to kill you? Ballpark figure?

• Caleb : [as The First]  I will overrun this Earth. And when my army outnumbers the humans on this Earth, the scales will tip... and I will be made flesh.

  Buffy Summers : Talk on. I'm not afraid of you.

  Caleb : Then why aren't you asleep... in your dead lover's arms? 'Cause he can't help you. Nor Faith. Nor your friends. Certainly not your wanna-slay brigade. None of those girlies will ever know real power unless you're dead. Now, you know the drill.

  [morphs into Buffy] 

  Buffy Summers : [as The First]  Into every generation, a Slayer is born. One girl in all the world. She alone will have the strength and skill to- There's that word again. What you are. How you'll die... alone... Where's your snappy comeback?

  Buffy Summers : You're right.

  Buffy Summers : [as The First]  Hmm. Not your best.

• [first lines] 

  Angel : Well, I guess that qualifies as "happy to see me."

  Buffy Summers : Angel, what are you doing he- Don't even. I just want to bask.

  [pause] 

  Buffy Summers : Okay, I'm basked. What are you doing here?

• Angel : You're not telling me something. The scent. I remember it pretty well.

  Buffy Summers : You vampires. Anybody ever tell you the whole smelling people thing's a little gross?

• Spike : Where's the trinket?

  Buffy Summers : The who-ket?

• Buffy Summers : [to The First]  You ever considered a cool name? I mean, since you're incorporeal and basically powerless. How about the Taunter?
