Buffy: “I just don’t want to deal with this right now. I’m taking a holiday from dealing, happily vacationing in the land of not coping.”
Willow: “You know what, you’ll feel better at the party tonight. Maybe you’ll even meet someone.”
Buffy: “Willow, I don’t want to meet someone. I’ve reached my quota on someones. Besides, I think I’m gonna have to patrol anyway.”
Willow: “Tonight, but – it’s Halloween!”
Buffy: “I’ll double check with Giles, but I’m sure he’s going to think I should be on active Slayer duty. He doesn’t care about Halloween.”

Cut to Giles opening his door dressed up like a Mexican holding a big bowl of candy.
