• [last lines] 

  Rupert Giles : We're at the center of a mystical convergence here. We may, in fact, stand between the Earth and its total destruction.

  Buffy Summers : Well, I got to look on the bright side. Maybe I can still get kicked out of school.

  Xander Harris : Oh, yeah. That's a plan, 'cause lots of schools aren't on Hellmouths.

  Willow Rosenberg : Maybe you could blow something up. They're really strict about that.

  Buffy Summers : I was thinking of a more subtle approach, you know, like excessive not studying.

  Rupert Giles : The Earth is doomed.

• Rupert Giles : You have no idea where they took Jesse?

  Buffy Summers : I looked around, but soon as they got clear of the graveyard, they could have just, voom.

  Xander Harris : They can fly?

  Buffy Summers : They can drive.

• Rupert Giles : This world is older than any of you know. Contrary to popular mythology, it did not begin as a paradise. For untold eons, demons walked the Earth. They made it their home, their, uh... their hell. But in time, they lost their purchase on this reality, and the way was made for mortal animals, for-for man. All that remains of the old ones are vestiges, certain magicks, certain creatures.

  Buffy Summers : And vampires.

  Xander Harris : Okay, this is where I have a problem. See, because we're talking about vampires. We're having a *talk* with vampires in it.

  Willow Rosenberg : Isn't that what we saw last night?

• Xander Harris : I don't like vampires. I'm gonna take a stand and say they're not good.

• Xander Harris : This is just too much. I mean, yesterday, my life's like, "Uh-oh. Pop quiz." Today, it's rain of toads.

• Jesse McNally : [after being turned into a vampire]  Sorry? I feel good, Xander. I feel strong. I'm connected, man, to everything! I, I can hear the worms in the earth.

  Xander Harris : That's a plus.

• Rupert Giles : I think you're being a bit hard on yourself.

  Buffy Summers : You're the one that told me I wasn't prepared enough. *Understatement.* I thought I was on top of everything, and then that monster Luke came out of nowhere--

  [cuts off as she flashes back to Luke grabbing her] 

  Xander Harris : What?

  Buffy Summers : He didn't come out of nowhere. He came from behind me. I was facing the entrance, he came from behind me, and he didn't follow me out. The access to the tunnels is in the mausoleum. The girl must have doubled back with Jesse after I got out.

• Xander Harris : We've got to get in there before Jesse does something stupider than usual.

  Rupert Giles : You listen to me. Jesse is dead. You have to remember that. When you see him, you're not looking at your friend. You're looking at the thing that killed him.

• Willow Rosenberg : [Xander and Buffy return from attempting to rescue Jesse only to find he's been turned into a vampire]  Did you find Jesse?

  Xander Harris : Yeah.

  Willow Rosenberg : Was he dead?

  Buffy Summers : Worse.
