SPIKE: I hope it's just dirt you're after. If the spell calls for anything more than that, you're into zombie territory & that's bad news.
DAWN: Spike, I wasn't...
SPIKE: I know good & well what you're up to. That book you've got is infamous.
DAWN: Please, don't tell Buffy, I just... I have to get her back. I have to...
SPIKE: Not gonna tell, Little Bit. I'm gonna help.

~~Forever~~

[thenewbuzwuzz]

Angel: "Invite me in! I've never been here before, Wesley, you have to invite me in!"
Wesley, lowering his gun: "Well, perhaps if you'd shown a bit of interest..."
Angel, still looking past Wesley: "Wesley..."
Wesley turns to look over his shoulder just as one of the Skilosh crashes in through his window.
Wesley: "Yes. No. Absolutely. I invite you in. *In* I invite you!"
