[gillo]

SPIKE: It's a big rock. I can't wait to tell my friends. They don't have a rock this big.
Angelus: Spike, boy, you never did learn your history.
SPIKE: Let's have a lesson, then.
Angelus: Acathla the demon came forth to swallow the world. He was killed by a virtuous knight who pierced the demon's heart before he could draw a breath to perform the act. Acathla turned to stone, as demons sometimes do, and was buried where neither man nor demon would want to look. Unless of course they're putting up low-rent housing. Boys...
(two vamps pry it open)
DRUSILLA: He fills my head. I can't hear anything else.
SPIKE: Let me guess. Someone pulls out the sword...
Angelus: Someone worthy...
SPIKE: Mm. The demon wakes up, and wackiness ensues.
DRUSILLA: He will swallow the world.
Angelus: And every creature living on this planet will go to Hell. My friends... we're about to make history... end.
