SPIKE: You all right?
BUFFY: You need to leave me alone. You're not a part of my life.
SPIKE: Fine, then. (starts to go, turns back) But I hope you don't think this antidote (zinged by ray of sunlight, starts again) I hope you don't think this antidote's gonna rid you of that nasty martyrdom. See I figured it out, luv. You can't help yourself. You're not drawn to the dark like I thought. You're addicted to the misery. That's why you won't tell your pals about us. Might actually have to be happy if you did. They'd either understand and help you, God forbid, or drive you out where you could finally be at peace, in the dark, with me. Either way, you'd be better off for it, but you're too twisted for that. Let yourself live, already. And stop with the bloody hero trip for a second, we'd all be the better for it. (pause) You either tell your friends about us, or I will. (stalks out)
