SPIKE: I don't fancy sticking my head in there.
BUFFY: Well, if something bites it off, that'd be a clue. So, what happened to you?
SPIKE: When you saw me. Those ghostly types in the school basement got in my head. Made me flat-out, bug-shaggin' crazy. And I'm not exactly braggin' about it, but they were stronger than I was. Made me see things, do things. And how come you never told anyone that you saw me?
BUFFY: I don't know. I guess I was partly hoping you were some kind of mirage.
SPIKE: Sorry to disappoint.
BUFFY: Not your fault.
SPIKE: Hold the torch, would you?
BUFFY: Look, this... us working together--it's not a way for us to get back together, if that's what you want.
SPIKE: It's not. Look, I can't blame you for being all skittish.
BUFFY: Skittish? That's not a word I would use for it. You tried to rape me. I don't have the words.
SPIKE: Neither do I. I can't say 'sorry'. Can't use 'forgive me'. All I can say is: Buffy, I've changed.
BUFFY: I believe you.
SPIKE: Well, that's something.
BUFFY: I just don't know what you've changed into. You come back to town. You make with the big surprises. Twice. I don't know what your game is, Spike, but I know there's something you're not telling me.
SPIKE: You're right. There is. But we're not best friends anymore, so too bad for me. I'm not sharing. We've been through things. The end of the world and back. I can be useful 'cause, honestly, I've got nothing better to do. Make use of me if you want. And there's nothing here. Just a bit of slime. Mounds of displaced dirt and such. Whatever our beastie is, he's gone.
