HARMONY: How's my little Blondie bear?
SPIKE: Harm, does this look like a good time?
HARMONY: Are you gonna kill Willow tonight? Cause I want you to say, 'This is for messing with my sweet girl.' And then, you know.
(He throws the vampire aside then takes Harmony by the waist.)
SPIKE: Nobody knows I'm here. And I'm not killing the slayer's best friend because that would tend to announce my presence. And we're too bloody close.
HARMONY: But you almost killed her last year. Suddenly it's a big deal.?
SPIKE: SOD OFF! Now go eat something, I've got work to do.
