DAWN: We're safe, right. And Spike built a robot Buffy to play checkers with.
TARA: It sounded convincing when I *thought* it...
WILLOW: (Re BuffyBot) Hey, I think I found something.
ANYA: Ugh! Looks very complicated. Personally, I'd rather look at guts.
WILLOW: I found where she's broken. Some of these wires got fried extra crispy. It's an easy fix! I mean, not that I would...
XANDER: God, I feel kinda bad for the guy. Gets all whupped and his best toy gets taken away.
BUFFY: Xander. *Please* don't be suggesting what I'd have to *kill* you for suggesting.
XANDER: No, no, travesty, completely on board! It's just... the guy was *so* thrashed...
