Giles: Just because the paranormal is more normal and less... para of late is no excuse for tardiness or letting your guard down.

Buffy: I haven't let my guard down.

Giles: Oh, really? You yawned your way through weapons training last week, you, you, you, you skipped hand-to-hand entirely... Are you gonna be prepared if a demon springs up behind you and does this?

He swings his arm over her shoulder from behind, but she grabs it and pulls it behind his back, forcing him to bend over and wince in pain. She has a bored look on her face.

Giles: Yeah, well, I'm, I'm not a demon. Which is why you should let go now.

She lets him go.

Giles: Thank you.

From the episode "Reptile Boy".
