Spike: The last Slayer I killed... she begged for her life. You don't strike me as the begging kind.
Buffy: You shouldn't have come here.
Spike: No. I've messed up your doilies and stuff. But I just got so bored. I'll tell you what. As a personal favor from me to you I'll make it quick. It won't hurt a bit.
Buffy: No, Spike. It's gonna hurt a lot.
