- Rupert Giles: [to Buffy] Be quiet... I won't remind you that the fate of the world often lies with the Slayer. What would be the point? Nor shall I remind you that you've jeopardized the lives of all that you hold dear by harboring a known murderer... But sadly, I must remind you that Angel tortured me... for hours... for pleasure. You should have told me he was alive. You didn't. You have no respect for me or the job I perform.
- Gwendolyn Post: The fact is, there is talk in the Council that you have become a bit too... American.
- Rupert Giles: Me?
- Buffy Summers: Him?
- Buffy Summers: What are you guys talking about?
- Oz: Oddly enough, your boyfriend. Again.
- Buffy Summers: He's not my boyfriend. Really, truly, he's... I don't know.
- [to Xander]
- Buffy Summers: Are we cool?
- Xander Harris: Yeah. Just, seeing the two of you kissing, after everything that happened... I leaned toward the postal... But I trust you.
- Cordelia Chase: I don't. Just for the record.
- [the gang angrily confronts Buffy on Angel's return]
- Buffy Summers: What is this, Demons Anonymous? I don't need an intervention, here.
- Rupert Giles: Oh, don't you? You must've known it was wrong seeing Angel or you wouldn't have hidden it from all of us.
- Buffy Summers: I was going to tell you, I was. It was just that I... I didn't know why he was back. I-I just wanted to wait.
- Xander Harris: For what? For Angel to go psycho again the next time you give him a happy?
- Buffy Summers: I'm not going to... we're not together like that.
- Oz: But you were kissing him.
- Buffy Summers: [to Xander] You were spying on me...? What gives you the right?
- Cordelia Chase: What gives you the right to suck face with your demon lover again?
- Buffy Summers: It was an accident.
- Xander Harris: What, you just tripped and *fell* on his lips?
- Buffy Summers: It was wrong, okay? I know that, and I know that it can't happen again. But you guys have to believe me. I would *never* put you in any danger. If I thought for a second that Angel was gonna hurt anyone...
- Xander Harris: ...you would stop him. Like you did the last time with Ms Calendar?
- Faith: Ronnie, deadbeat. Steve, klepto. Kenny... drummer. Eventually, I just had to face up to my destiny as a loser magnet. Now it's strictly get some, get gone. You can't trust guys.
- Buffy Summers: You can trust some guys. Really, I've read about them.
- Buffy Summers: You would just love an excuse to hurt him, wouldn't you?
- Xander Harris: I don't need an excuse. I think lots of dead people actually constitutes a *reason*.
- [after meeting the new Watcher]
- Rupert Giles: That was bracing.
- Buffy Summers: Interesting lady. Can we kill her?
- Rupert Giles: I think the Council might frown upon that.
- Buffy Summers: How long do you think he can stay angry at me, anyway?
- Willow Rosenberg: The emotional Marathon Man?
- Buffy Summers: I'm gonna try and vent a little hormonal angst by going out there and killing a Lagos, whatever that is.
- Angel: Lagos?
- Buffy Summers: Some demon looking for some all-powerful thingamabob, and I gotta stop him before he unleashes unholy havoc, and it's another Tuesday night in Sunnydale.
- Buffy Summers: Let me guess. Gwendolyn Post, not a watcher.
- Rupert Giles: Yes, she was. She was, uh, kicked out by the Council a couple of years ago for misuses of dark power... They swear there was a memo.
- Buffy Summers: Look, Gwendolyn Post or whoever she may be, had us all fooled. Even Giles.
- Faith: Yeah, well, you can't trust people. I should've learned that by now.
- Buffy Summers: I realize this is gonna sound funny coming from someone that just spent a lot of time kicking your face... but you can trust me.
- Faith: Is that right?
- Buffy Summers: I know I kept secrets, but I didn't have a choice. I'm on your side.
- Faith: *I'm* on my side, and that's enough.
- Buffy Summers: Not always.
- Willow Rosenberg: Hey! Speaking of people and things they do that aren't like usual, anyone notice Buffy acting sort of different?
- Xander Harris: Let's see, um, killing zombies, uh, torching sewer monsters, and, no, that's pretty much the, uh, same old Buffster.
- Faith: Yeah, but you gotta have stories. I mean, I've had my share of losers, but you... you boinked the undead.
- Gwendolyn Post: Mr. Giles, where do you keep the rest of your books?
- Rupert Giles: I-I'm sorry. The rest?
- Gwendolyn Post: Yes, the *actual* library.
- [pause while Giles looks confused]
- Gwendolyn Post: Oh. I see.
- Rupert Giles: I can assure you, Mrs. Post, this is the finest occult reference collection...
- Gwendolyn Post: ...this side of the Atlantic, I'm sure.
- [after Miss Post has put on the Glove of Myhnegon and absorbed it's power]
- Faith: What's going on?
- Gwendolyn Post: Faith... a word of advice... You're an idiot.
- Gwendolyn Post: Would you like to do some training?
- Faith: Training? As in kicking and punching and stabbing?
- Gwendolyn Post: Yes, that's the idea.
- Faith: I'm your girl.
- [after a knock on her door, a scared Faith opens it ready to stake someone]
- Gwendolyn Post: A word of advice...? Vampires rarely knock... Especially in daylight.
- Willow Rosenberg: Um, not to downplay my own slaying abilities, which in some circles are considered formidable, but shouldn't Faith be here?
- [last lines]
- [Buffy has gone to Faith's room to try and help her]
- Faith: Is that it?
- Buffy Summers: Yeah, I guess.
- Faith: All right. Well, then, I'll see ya.
- [Buffy turns to leave the Faith's room disappointed]
- Faith: B-Buffy?
- [Buffy stops and turns around with hope]
- Buffy Summers: Yeah?
- Faith: [after a pause] Nothing.
