XANDER: Hey, black-eyed girl...Whatcha doin'?
WILLOW: Get out of here.
XANDER: Oh no...You're not the only one with powers, you know. You may be a hopped up uber-witch, but this carpenter can dry-wall you into the next century.
WILLOW: I'm not joking, Xander. Get out of my way. Now. You can't stop this.
XANDER: Yeah, I get that. It's just - where else am I gonna go? You've been my best friend my whole life. World gonna end - where else would I want to be?
WILLOW: Is this the master plan? You're going to stop me by telling me ya love me?
XANDER: Well, I was gonna walk you off a cliff and hand you an anvil, but it seemed kinda cartoony.
