AMANDA : What the hell are you talking about? I thought Faith killed a volcanologist.
ANDREW : (laughs, lets Rona go, puts down the knife) Silly, silly...Amanda. Why would Faith kill a person who studies Vulcans?

[rahirah]

Gwendolyn: You wanted to see me, Mr. Giles?
Giles: Yes. I do apologize for bringing you in at this late hour.
Gwendolyn: Please. A good Watcher must be awake and alert at all hours.
Giles: Would you like some tea?
Gwendolyn: God, yes, please. I'm completely knackered. I spent the afternoon training with Faith. She doesn't lack for energy.
Giles: She's your first Slayer, I take it?
Gwendolyn: If you're questioning my qualifications...
Giles: No, I'm not. I, uh, have the utmost respect for your methods... in my own American way. I also have the glove. Oh, not actually on me, but, uh, I believe it's safe. It's in a mansion on Crawford Street. A-a-a friend of Buffy's is keeping it there.
Gwendolyn: Well. We must get to it. Immediately. Hide it before someone else finds it.
Giles: Or better still, destroy it.
Gwendolyn: Destroy it?
