(Cut to Buffy, Willow, Xander and Spike walking through the woods, armed. Buffy and Willow wear white lab coats. Spike and Xander wear green army fatigues.)
BUFFY: I've mentioned how much I'm gonna kill you if this is a scam, right?
SPIKE: Look, would I wear this if I wasn't on the up-and-up?
WILLOW: You do sorta look like an evil olive.
