"Will you be wagging thatjaw of yours while I'm biting it off?" "Are you addressing I?" "(Lothos) Who's ready to stop me?" "It's not you, Merrick." "You finally brought me someone real." "But is she ready?" "Well, actually, she's quite a pain in the ass." " What a pity." " (Pike) Your move, Merrick." "Come on, Lefty." "Remember what happened the last time you messed with me?" " I remember." " Shit." "She's not ready for you, Lothos." "That's too bad." "I had such high hopes." "Close your eyes." "No!" "Not this one." "Lothos." "Ashes to ashes." "Oh, look." "Look... what I've done." "Dust to dust." " We're leaving." " We're not eating?" "She's not ready." "God." " Stay still." " I am still." "I'll get you some help." "You..." "You do everything wrong." "Sorry." "I take it back." "No." "Do it wrong." "Don't play our game." "Lothos is a... is a show." "Remember about the music." "Listen." "When the music stops, the rest is..." "Merrick?" "Merrick?" "Oh..." "It really was mondo bizarro." "When she ran out onto the court, wasn't it the most out-of-it thing ever, or did I blink?" "No." "Way mental." " Oh, hi, Buffy." " Hi, guys." "You were supposed to be here at three." " Yeah, I know." "I'm sorry, I forgot." " Buffy, what is your sitch?" "You're acting like a thing from another tax bracket." "It's too weird." "Listen, a lot's been going on, guys, OK?" "And I really wanted to talk to you guys about it." "See, a couple of weeks ago, I met this guy..." "Oh, my God." "You're having an affair?" " Cool." " Does Jeffrey know?" "It's not about that." "He's, like, old." "He's 50." "(all) Ew!" " Sick." " Gross." "Haven't you guys noticed what's been going on here?" "The strange things?" "Haven't you noticed people disappearing?" "Turning up dead?" " What are you talking about?" " Weird." "You mean, like, hanging out with that homeless, Poke?" "Pike." " Ew." "You're having an affair with him?" " He doesn't look 50." "Guys, I think reality stepped out of here about five minutes ago." " Thank you very much." " Yeah." "Like you've got a grip." "You're out of it." "Jennifer says you've blown off cheerleading and dance committee." "Excuse me for having something important to do." "And this isn't important?" "This happens to be the dance." "Right." "It's a dance." "It's a stupid dance with a bunch of stupid people that I see every stupid day." "Like, now we're, like, stupid?" "You know, Buffy, this doesn't happen to be just any dance." "It happens to be the last dance of our last year." " Except for the semiformal." " Right." " And the totally formal." " Oh, yeah." " Oh, yeah." "And the senior prom." " OK!" "Buffy, if you wanna play house with the unwashed masses, that's fine." "But, personally, I think you should spend a little time prioritising." " What language are you speaking?" " Get out of my facial." "Well, I guess you got what you came for." " Nic..." " Later for it." "Jen?" "Buff!" "Hey, Buff." "What you been doing?" "I've been looking all over for you." "I'm going shopping." "Don't try and stop me, OK?" "Cool." "I need Allen wrenches." "What do you need?" " Dress." " For what?" " Dance." " Come again?" "I'm going to the senior dance." "The second word sounds like "dance"." " I'm going to the dance." " For what?" "In order to dance, drink punch, be with my friends, comprende?" "No." "The world is under attack by legions of the undead and you're going to a mixer?" "It's a senior dance." "It's important." "You wouldn't understand." "No, I wouldn't." "I thought you wanted to kill vampires." "I don't wanna kill anybody, OK?" "And I don't wanna talk about this any more." " What about Merrick?" "Is that what he'd want?" " Merrick's dead." "Cheap shot." "He's dead because of me." "Because I couldn't lift a hand against Lothos." "I'm in way over my head." "Look, life's a bitch." "I'll give you that." "But, Buffy, you're the guy." "You are the chosen guy." "Right." "I'm the Chosen One." "And I choose to be shopping." " Yeah, I should have known." " So leave me alone, all right?" "Benny was right." "You're all the same." "I'm not disappointed, just angry." "Buffy?" " Buffy." " Lay out my suit." "We will be attending a dance." "Dance?" "Master, what are we waiting for?" "The Slayer is unmasked." "Let's finish it." " We'll wait until Saturday." " Why?" "Because I want to dance." "I am yours to command."
