FAITH: You're a vampire.
SPIKE: Was. And as soon as I get this chip out of my head, I'll be a vampire again. But until then, I'm just as helpless as a kitten up a tree. So why don't you sod off?
FAITH: Okay.
SPIKE: Oh, fine! Throw it in my face! Spike's not a threat anymore, I'll turn my back! He can't hurt me.
FAITH: Spike? (recognition) Spike. William the Bloody with a chip in his head. I kind of love this town.
SPIKE: You know why I really hate you, Summers?
FAITH: (cheerfully) 'Cause I'm a stuck-up tight-ass with no sense of fun?
SPIKE: Well . . . Yeah, that covers a lot of it.
FAITH: 'Cause I could do anything I want, and instead I choose to pout and whine and feel the burden of Slayerness? I mean, I could be rich. I could be famous. I could have anything. Anyone. Even you, Spike. I could ride you at a gallop until your legs buckled and your eyes rolled up. I've got muscles you've never even dreamed of. I could squeeze you until you pop like warm champagne and you'd beg me to hurt you just a little bit more. And you know why I don't?
(Their lips very close, Spike doesn't say anything but seems *very* interested in the answer.)
FAITH: Because it's wrong.
(laughs, leaves)
SPIKE: (menacingly) I get this chip out . . . you and me are gonna have a confrontation.
