Buffy: What are you doing lurking down here?
Spike: Came through the tunnels. Running low on burba weed. Stir it in with the blood. Makes it all hot 'n spicy. What? I was gonna pay for it. I mean, no. I was gonna nick it, 'cause that's what I do. I go where I please and I take what I want, and what's your excuse anyway? I thought you'd had it to the brim with customer disservice.
Buffy: One-time deal to help out. And I mean straight time. No loop-de-loop mummy hand repeat-o-vision. Where's the mandrake root?
Spike: Um ... here. Only three to a jar. Tend to ... go a bit wonky if you cram them too close.
Buffy: Thanks.
Spike: Feel like a bit of the rough and tumble?
Buffy: What?
Spike: Me ... you...Patrolling? Hello?
Buffy: Oh. Uh ... I ... should stay. Maybe tomorrow.
Spike: It's not like I don't already have plans. Great Pumpkin's on in twenty.
Buffy (to herself): So much easier to talk to when he wanted to kill me.

From the episode "All The Way".
