Quotes 

• [Giles and company are researching old magic books] 

  Riley Finn : These spells. These really work? I mean, can you really turn your enemies inside out, or learn to excrete gold coins?

  Anya : That one's not so much fun.

  Willow Rosenberg : They work, Riley, but they take concentration, being attuned with the forces of the universe.

  Xander Harris : Right, you can't just go

  [reading] 

  Xander Harris : "librum incendere" and expect...

  [Xander's book bursts into flames and he slams it shut, extinguishing it] 

  Giles : Xander, don't speak Latin in front of the books.

• Riley Finn : Did anyone else feel way too tall? I felt *way* too tall.

  Xander Harris : I liked his clothes. He had really cool clothes.

  Willow Rosenberg : I still don't understand how he got the house and everything.

  Anya : And who really did star in The Matrix?

  Riley Finn : Wait! That wasn't real either?

• Buffy : Anya, when you were a demon, you granted wishes, right?

  Anya : Vengeance wishes on ex-boyfriends. I'd wish he was a dog, or ugly, or in love with President McKinley or something.

  Buffy : But someone could wish the whole world to be different, right? That's possible?

  Anya : Sure, alternate realities. You could, uh, could have like a world without shrimp, or with, you know, nothing but shrimp. You could even make like a-a freaky world where Jonathan's, like, some kind of not-perfect mouth-breather if that's what's blowing up your skirt these days. Just don't ask me to live there.

• Buffy : Anya, tell them about the alternate universes.

  Anya : Oh, okay, um... say you really like shrimp a lot, or we could say you don't like shrimp at all. "*Blah*, I wish there weren't any shrimp," you'd say to yourself...

  Buffy : Stop! You're saying it wrong... I think that Jonathan may be doing something so that he's manipulating the world, and we're all, like, his pawns.

  Anya : Or prawns.

  Buffy : Stop with the shrimp! I am trying to do something here!

• Xander Harris : [practicing a quick draw with a stake]  The quick draw is about more than speed. It's also about pointing the stake the right way. And there can be splinter issues. It is a true test of dexterity.

  Anya : [re milk carton]  Can you open this?

  Xander Harris : No. I tear it and it gets all sloshy.

• Anya : I did not.

  Xander : Last night, with me, you said "Jonathan."

  Anya : It was a *moan*.

  Xander : Fine, you moaned Jonathan.

  Anya : Uh-uh. It was like, "a-a-a-ahh."

  Xander : Maybe it was "A-a-anathan." Still not fluffin' up the old ego.

  [Buffy knocks a vampire down] 

  Buffy Summers : Xander! Anya!

  [Xander and Anya try to hold the vampire] 

  Willow Rosenberg : Buffy, another one!

  [Buffy starts fighting another vampire] 

  Willow Rosenberg : Buffy!

  [tosses Buffy a stake and she dusts the first vampire as the other runs away] 

  Buffy Summers : Where's the other one.

  Xander Harris : Where's the other one.

  Anya : In there.
