Vampire: Don't drink it. It's drugged.
SPIKE: Uh-huh. And who are you, mate?
Vampire: I'm a rat. I'm a lab rat, just like the others. They're gonna kill us, you know.
SPIKE: And how are they gonna do that?
Vampire: They starve you. When you're ready to bite your own arm, they shoot out one of those packets. You drink, and the next thing, you're gone. And that's when they do the experiments.
SPIKE: And, uh, they are? The government? Nazis? A major cosmetics company?
Vampire: Who cares? All I know is, one minute I'm running from the slayer, And the next thing, I'm here.
SPIKE: The slayer! I knew it! I knew it!
Vampire: Yeah, she took apart my crew, and led me straight to these guys.
SPIKE: She set me up, too. I always worried what would happen When that bitch got some funding. She's wised up a bit. Fine! I'll take her apart. I don't care how brilliant she is.
