Episode Quotes

"Here's the thing. There's moments in your life that make you. That set the course of who you're gonna be. Sometimes they're little, subtle moments. Sometimes. . . they're not... Bottom line is even if you see 'em coming, you're not ready for the big moments. No one asks for their life to change, not really. But it does. So, what, are we helpless? Puppets? No. The big moments are gonna come, can't help that. It's what you do afterwards that counts. That's when you find out who you are." - Whistler (BtVS ep.033 - Becoming, Part 1)
 


Buffy: ..I'm like that kid in the story, the boy who stuck his finger in the duck.
Angel: Dike. It's another word for a dam.
Buffy: Oh. Okay, now that story makes a lot more sense.

"You think you can fight me. I'm not a demon, little girl. I'm something you can't conceive. The first evil. Beyond sin, beyond death... I am the thing the darkness fears. You will never see me, but I am everywhere. Every being, every thought, every drop of hate--" Jenny (Buffy ep.044 - Amends)
 


Giles: Don't taunt the fear demon.
Xander: Why? Can he hurt me?
Giles: No, it's just... tacky.

Darla: But we...
Angel: Yes...
Darla: ...and you...
Angel: I know...
Darla: Then I...
Angel: Three times...

Darla: ....You're not evil?
Darla: I don't understand... Was I... was it... not good?

Darla: Well, I don't accept this. You cannot tell me that wasn't perfect. Not only have I been around for four hundred years, I used to do this
professionally and that was perfect!
Darla: ..We'll go again.
 


"Dawn listen to me. Listen. I love you. I'll always love you. But this is the work I have to do. Tell Giles I... I figured it out. And I'm okay. Give my love to my friends. You have to take care of them now -- you have to take care of each other. You have to be strong. Dawn. The hardest thing in this world is to live in it. Be brave. Live. For me." - Buffy (Buffy ep.100 - The Gift)

Joyce: Buffy where have you been? Are you okay? The police were here. Are you okay? I went looking for you.
Buffy: Mom, let's go inside --
Joyce: Who is this man? (to Spike) Who are you? (to Buffy) Are you okay?
Buffy: MOM.
Buffy: I'm okay. I was. . . busy. . . doing something. And this is Spike, and he was doing it too.
Joyce: Doing what? Buffy, terrible things have happened. What were you doing?
Spike: What, your mum doesn't know
Joyce: Know what?
Buffy: That, uh, that, uh, I'm in a rock band.
Buffy: Yes, a rock band, with Spike here. . . .
Spike: (helping) Right, she plays the. . . triangle --
Buffy: -- drums --
Spike: Drums, yeah, she's hell on the old skins, you know.
Joyce: And what do you do?
Spike: Well, I sing.
Buffy: Why don't we go inside now and talk about it.
Joyce: Well, I'm not sure how I feel about this. . .
Buffy: (to Spike) You think she's buying it.
a VAMPIRE leaps from the bushes. It's one of Angel's henchmen, and he blows past the two of them -- right into Joyce. She gets a good look at his face and she yelps with fear. He roars. Buffy grabs him before he can untangle himself from Joyce. She hurls him toward Spike, who decks him solidly, knocks him back to Buffy who kicks him, whips out a stake and dusts him.
Spike goes up to Buffy, casually looking at the spot where the vampire was.

Spike: One of Angel's boys.
Buffy: Must have been watching me. Or you.
Spike: He won't get the chance to tattle on us now.
Joyce: Buffy. . . what's going on?
Buffy goes to her mom, takes a deep breath.
Buffy: Mom. . . I'm a vampire slayer.
 


"I can handle the Oz Full Monty" - Xander (BtVS ep.038 - Beauty and the Beasts)
 


"My mummy used to sing me to sleep at night. "Run and catch, run and catch, the lamp is caught in the blackberry patch". She had the sweetest voice, like cherries. What will your mummy sing when they find your body?" - Drusilla (BtVS ep.020 - Lie to Me)
 


"I'm supervised twenty-four seven. It's like living in The Real World house, only real." - Buffy (BtVS ep.040 - Band Candy)
 


Xander: What do you mean, what is it? It's my *thing*.
Willow: Your thing?
Xander: My thing!
Buffy: Is this a penis metaphor?
 


"You're not friends. You'll never be friends. You'll be in love 'til it kills you both. You'll fight, and you'll shag, and you'll hate each other 'til it makes you quiver, but you'll never be friends. Real love isn't brains, children. It's blood. It's blood screaming inside you to work its will. I may be love's bitch, but at least I'm man enough to admit it." - Spike (Buffy ep.042 - Lover's Walk)
 


Giles: Quite a couple of days.
Buffy: My brain hasn't pocessed everything yet. It's not really functioning at the higher levels. It's pretty much, 'fire bad, tree pretty.' Anything more complex..
Giles: Understandable. Well, when it starts working again, congratulate it on a good campaign. You did very well.... There is a certain dramatic irony in the way things turned out. A synchronicity that boarders on pedestination, one might say.
Buffy: Fire bad. Tree pretty.
 


Xander has scribbled on a pad, holds up for all to see: HOW DO YOU KILL THEM?
Buffy snorts contemptuously, then circles her fist around an imaginary stake, plunges it down repeatedly.
Everybody looks at her, a little thrown: the gesture doesn't read the way she intended.
 


"Looks dead, smells dead, yet it's moving around. That's interesting." - Oz (BtVS ep.036 - Dead Man's Party)
 


Mr. Whitmore: Of course, for teenagers such an yourselves these feelings are even more overwhelming. With all sorts of hormones surging through your bodies, compelling you to action - it's often difficult to remember that there are negative consequences to having sex. would anyone care to offer one such consequence?

Cordelia: That depends. Are you talking about sex in a car or out of a car? Because one time - a friend of mine, not me - kicked the gear shift in a Miata that was parked at the top of this hill and--

Mr. Whitmore: (interrupting her) I was thinking of something a little more... commonplace, Ms. Chase.
 


"If every vampire who said he was at the Crucifixion was actually there it would've been like Woodstock. I was at Woodstock. I fed off a flower person and I spent six hours watching my hand move." - Spike (Buffy - ep.015 - School Hard)
 


"I wear the cheese. It does not wear me." - Cheese Man (BtVS ep. 078 - Restless)
 


Oz: I'm gonna ask you if you wanna go out tomorrow night. I'm actually kind of nervous about it. It's interesting.
Willow: Oh. Well, if it helps at all, I'm gonna say yes.
Oz: It helps. It adds a comfort zone. You wanna go out tomorrow night?
Willow: I can't !
 


Scott: Stable. Okay. Topics to avoid. The little men that live in your teeth..your compulsion to paint circus clowns..
Buffy: But if god keeps telling me to kill-- it just seems snotty not to, you know?
 


"I'm sixteen – duh – I'm a Sagittarius with my moon in Gemini which means nothing, as far as I can tell. But my mom seems to think it explains a lot. I don't eat meat, except for cheeseburgers. I think Jill Sobule should be leader of the free world." - Buffy (BtVS ep.001 -Welcome to the Hellmouth)
 


Riley: So what have you got going on tonight?
Buffy: Patrolling.
Riley: Patrolling?
Buffy: (quick cover) Uh, petroleum.
Riley: Petroleum.
Buffy: Uh huh.
Riley: Tonight you have crude oil.
Buffy: And homework. What about you?
Riley: Oh, you know, grading papers...
Buffy: Well, that'll be fun.
Riley: Not "petroleum" fun, but it passes the time...
 


"No. Just letting off steam. Two guys rasslin'. But not in a gay way." - Xander (BtVS ep.047 - The Zeppo)
 


Dawn: What are you doing?
Buffy: My boyfriend!
 


"My life happens on occasion to suck beyond the telling of it." - Buffy (BtVS ep.052 - Earshot)
 


"I was happy. Wherever I ... was ... I was happy. At peace. I knew that everyone I cared about was all right. I knew it. Time didn't mean anything, nothing had form... but I was still me, you know? And I was warm and I was loved... and I was finished. Complete. I don't understand about dimensions or theology or any of ... but I think I was in heaven. And now I'm not. I was torn out of there. My friends pulled me out. And everything here is bright and hard and violent... Everything I feel, everything I touch... this is Hell. Just getting through the next moment, and the one after that... knowing what I've lost ..." - Buffy (BtVS ep.103 - Afterlife)
 


Xander: The band, yeah. They're great. They march.
Willow: Like an army. Except with music, instead of bullets, and usually no one dies.
 


Spike: (mocking Richard) Ohhh, Buffy, might I get you a soda pop? I think I'm in looooove!
Buffy: Seriously, stop it, someone will see.
He pulls her to him.
Spike: Mmmm-hmmm.
He takes her hand, tries to push it onto his crotch, but Tara walks in. Buffy pulls away, glares at Spike, and walks off. Tara just stares.
Spike: I, uh, had a muscle cramp. Buffy was... helping.
Tara: Muscle cramp. In your pants.
Spike: What. It's a thing.
Tara: Right.

LATER..

Dawn: Oh, we should totally have a slumber party!
Buffy: Well... I don't know. I guess, as long as we're all staying up anyway.
Spike: (for Buffy) Must be some late-night activities to keep us busy till morning.
Buffy glares death rays at Spike. Tara picks up on it, speaks to him quietly.
Tara: How's that cramp, Spike? Still bothering you?
Spike: What? Oh. Yeah...
Tara: (smiles) Maybe you should put some ice on it.
 


"I brought marshmallows.... Occasionally, I'm callous and strange." - Willow (BtVS ep.047 - The Zeppo)
 


Buffy: See, this is a school. And we have students and they check out books and then they learn things.
Giles: I was beginning to suspect that was a myth.
 


"Great, now I'm gonna be stuck with serious thoughts all day." - Cordelia (BtVS ep.037 - Beauty and the Beasts)
 


Giles: Alright. I'll just jump into my time machine, go back to the 12th century and ask the vampires to postpone their ancient prophecy for a few days while you take in dinner and a show.
Buffy: Okay, at this point you're abusing sarcasm.
 


"Syrups have kinds?" - Dawn (BtVS ep.118 - Entropy)
 


Willow: Look at you. All coming-out-of-class and everything.
Tara: I do that sometimes. Usually at the end part of the class.

 


"How could he do that to me? He promised we'd be together. He was just using me. He never really loved -- (catching himself) -- hanging out with us." - Andrew (ep.119 - Seeing Red)

 


Joss Quotes

"..The government has a camera in my bathroom. You know the drill."


 

"Every now and then, I'll go, 'Damn.' But if I wanted Emmy nominations, all my characters would be doctors."


 

"Just stop watching the pain will go away"


 

"If people are freaking out, I'm good. If people are going, "Hmmm...well, that was fine," I'm fucked."


 

"Occasionally, I am derivative and lame."


 

"As people who have been around for a while know, I always like to get on the "net" and reveal aboslutely everything that's going to happen next year. That way, you don't spend all summer stressing. Here's the important points:

1) Buffy will become a "vampire slayer". I can't really explain what that means yet, 'cause Doug hasn't explained it to me. But it seems to point towards ADVENTURE!

2) Format change: from now on, the first half hour will be about Buffy FIGURING OUT what the monster is, and the second half hour will be about Sam Waterston PROSECUTING the monster.

3) We're easing back on the goats. There've been complaints.

4) Because of the coincidental movie name issue, we will no longer refer to the kids as the "Scooby" Gang. They will be known as the "Scooby Doo, The Film, Coming This Christmas To Your Local DVD Store" gang. Or possibly the "Sharks".

5) The gay thing is so passe. We're over that. But honestly, that's just the way Clem ACTS. We're having a talk.

6) A lot of people were confused at the end when Spike wanted his fish order changed. SOLE, people. Jeez. We HAVE a vampire with a SOUL, you think we're doing that again?

7) Cardigans, cardigans, cardigans."


 

"Well. The posting board. A place for laughs, for romance, for leaking information... You know, I came on last week, chatted a little about the willow/tara dynamic -- couple of days later it's in Entertainment Weekly. Crazy modern world (see: Metal Horses), it confounds me so.

The truth is, I was a little wigged by all the commotion my posting caused. I think the worst thing that could happen would be for the willow/tara storyline to become some kind of publicity stunt. I guess if I type something here, the papers are gonna pick up on it, and there's nothing I can do about it. So I'd like to make the following announcements:

1)FROM NOW ON, EVERYONE ON BUFFY WILL BE GAY. You heard it here first. And not just a little gay, either. Whole new show.

2) MATT DAMON: MONSTER FIGHTER. Yes, a multi-episode arc feature the talented mr Damon -- and look for some of his movie star friends to make "montrous" cameos!

3)FREE PRESENTS AND MONEY for everyone who tunes in. Swear to God.

4) NUDITY, NUDITY, NUDITY.

5) NAKEDNESS.

6) ZEPPLIN FIGHT OVER NEPTUNE! Just in time for sweeps, the gang is going to have an "out of this world" adventure -- with wacky Xander at the controlls! This episode is budgetted at 18 million dollars, and will change history.


Okay! Well, I'll just settle back and let the publicity come rolling in. Yep, ratings are bound to soar once everyone gets wind of the exciting and controversial direction I'm taking the show in. In the meanwhile, I hope you, the fans, enjoy the all-nude, all-gay Buffy. It's gonna be a hoot!

Sincerely (except for the sincerity part), Joss."


 

"I'm REALLY REALLY going to bed."


 

"So I'd just like to say, this may LOOK like women's lingerie, but it's just a clever swimsuit. In case I need to swim."
