WILLOW: Snyder must be in charge of the volunteer safety program for Halloween this year.
XANDER: Note his interesting take on the volunteer concept.
BUFFY: What's the deal?
XANDER: Oh, a bunch of little kids need people to take them trick-or-treating. Sign up and get your own pack of sugar-hyped little runts for the night.
BUFFY: Yikes. I'll stick to vampires.
