- Buffy Summers: Giles, I've never seen her like this. It's like it hurts too much to form words.
- Rupert Giles: You've, uh... You've felt that way yourself and, uh, you got through it.
- Buffy Summers: Yeah. I ran away and went to hell, and *then* got through it. I'm kinda hoping she doesn't use me as a model.
- Rupert Giles: Fair enough.
- Xander Harris: So, I know why I'm sitting in a dank, sunless little room. But why are you?
- Willow Rosenberg: Well, things with Oz are weird. And-And I talked to Buffy about it, but I think we're in Guyville here. I need a translator from the "Y" side of things.
- Xander Harris: Well, last time I checked, I had the creds. Hit me.
- Willow Rosenberg: What does it mean when a girl wants to... you know.
- Xander Harris: If you're doin' it, I think you should be able to say it.
- Willow Rosenberg: Make love.
- Xander Harris: Wild monkey love or tender Sarah McLachlan love?
- Willow Rosenberg: Any kind. But what if the girl wants to and... the guy doesn't? That's a bad sign, right?
- Xander Harris: Could be. Or the girl caught the guy in one of the 7 annual minutes he's legitimately too preoccupied to do it.

- [after being chased by a vampire to an isolated area]
- Buffy Summers: hanks for the relocate. I perform better without an audience.
- [knocks the vampire down]
- Buffy Summers: You were thinking, what, a little helpless coed before bed?
- [fights the vampire and knows him down again]
- Buffy Summers: You know very well, you eat this late...
- [stabs vampire in the heart with a stake]
- Buffy Summers: ...you're gonna get heartburn... Get it? Heartburn?
- [vampire turns to dust without saying anything]
- Buffy Summers: [to herself] That's it...? That's all I get...? One lame-ass vamp with no appreciation for my painstakingly thought-out puns.
- Willow Rosenberg: She wants you to lead a discussion group? Okay. Jealous again. Jealous, Jealous. Okay. I'm back.
- Buffy Summers: So Oz check outs another girl. He loves you.
- Willow Rosenberg: I know. I-I know. And I don't wanna be the kind of girl who *freaks* every time my boyfriend notices somebody else. I mean, I have wrong feelings about other guys sometimes, but I-I feel guilty, and I flog and punish.
- Buffy Summers: Exactly. I'm sure Oz is flogging and punishing himself... This is sounding wrong before I even finish.
- Willow Rosenberg: Are you okay? How'd you do?
- [Buffy shows Willow here Psychology paper]
- Willow Rosenberg: This is good. I-I mean, this is excellent! You did better than me. This is so unfair...! You made me jealous of you academically... Buffy!
- [hugs Buffy]
- [Giles sits down at their table at the Bronze]
- Rupert Giles: Well, don't look that way. I'm-I'm-I'm down with the new music. And I have the albums to prove it.
- Buffy Summers: Yes, but it's your cutting-edge 8-tracks that keep you ahead of the scene.
- Oz: Don't scoff, gang. I've seen Giles' collection. He was an animal in his day.
- Rupert Giles: Thank, you.
- Buffy Summers: Hey, why not? If the Stones can still keep rolling, why can't Giles?
- Buffy Summers: An-And she wants me to lead a discussion group next class... That means more work, right? Shouldn't she have a better reward system? You know, like a cookie or toy surprise like at the dentist?
- Oz: Veruca was right about something. The wolf is inside me all the time... and I don't know where that line is anymore between me and it. And until I figure out what that means, I shouldn't be around you... or anybody.
- Willow Rosenberg: The Bronze is more fun this year, isn't it?
- Buffy Summers: 'Cause of the gloating factor alone, you know? We're all about college now. We've got heady discourse.
- Oz: Yeah. Curfew-free nights of mom and pop-less hootenanny.
- Xander Harris: Coed dating prospects who find townies sexy and dangerous.
- [everyone looks at him]
- Xander Harris: What, I can dream.
- Buffy Summers: Oz... Oz, are you okay...? And if it's possible, you seem more monosyllabic than usual.
