Quotes 

• Rupert Giles : We'll get our memory back, and it'll all be right as rain.

  Spike : Oh, listen to Mary Poppins. He's got his crust all stiff and upper with that nancy-boy accent. You Englishmen are always so... Bloody hell... Sodding. Blimey. Shagging. Knickers. Bollocks. Oh, God. I'm English.

  Rupert Giles : Welcome to the nancy tribe.

  Spike : You don't suppose you and I... We're not related, are we?

  Anya : There is a ruggedly handsome resemblance.

  Rupert Giles : A-And you do inspire a, um... well, a particular feeling of... familiarity and... disappointment. Older brother?

  Spike : Father. Oh, God, how I must hate you.

  Rupert Giles : What did *I* do?

• Spike : Randy Giles? Why not just call me Horny Giles or Desperate-For-A-Shag Giles? I knew there was a reason I hated you.

• Spike : [as Randy]  I must be a noble vampire. A good guy, on a mission of redemption... I help the helpless. I'm a vampire with a soul.

  Buffy Summers : [as Joan]  A vampire with a soul? Oh, my God. How lame is that?

• [Spike has amnesia, thinks Giles is his father] 

  Spike : [as Randy]  Dad can drive. He's bound to have some classic mid-life crisis transport. Something red, shiny, shaped like a penis.

• [first lines] 

  Spike : Can we talk?

  Buffy Summers : Vocal cord-wise? Yes. With each other? No.

• [after seeing Buffy and Dawn hug] 

  Spike : [as Randy to Giles]  You *never* showed me affection like that...

  [Giles looks at Spike, who he thinks is his son Randy] 

  Spike : [as Randy]  ... I'd wager.

• Spike : Take it easy. You'll get your kittens.

  Teeth : Oh, I trust you, Mister Spike.

  Buffy : Oh, God. What is it with you guys? Why kittens? Why can't you just use *money* like everybody else?

• Spike : [as Randy]  I'm a hero, really. I mean, to be cast such an ugly lot in life and then to rise above it, to seek out better, nobler things. It's inspirational, isn't it? And the two of us, natural enemies thrown together to stand against the forces of darkness. A lot of trust. No thought of me biting you. No thought of you staking me.

  Buffy Summers : [as Joan]  Depends on how long you keep on yapping.

• Buffy Summers : [as Joan]  Ready, Randy?

  Spike : [as Randy]  Ready, Joan.

• Vamp #2 : [outside the Magic Box]  Send out Spike!

  Rupert Giles : They seem to want spikes.

  Spike : [as Randy]  Oh!

  [Spike goes to the back of the store, comes back with a handful of stakes] 

  Spike : [as Randy]  Let's give 'em these.

  Rupert Giles : Oh, well done.

• Vamp #3 : You owe us!

  Spike : [as Randy]  Fine! Take your damn spikes!

  [Spike pulls the stakes from his jacket and tosses them at the vampire] 

• Buffy Summers : Did you guys see that?

  Spike : [as Randy]  Vampires!

  Tara Maclay : Maybe it's Halloween.

  Dawn Summers : It doesn't feel like Halloween.

  Xander Harris : Even if it is, those guys are definitely not kids, and those are definitely not costumes. Randy's right. Looks like we have vampires.

• [last lines] 

  Spike : [to Buffy]  You all right?
