Giles: Yes. Uh, uh, look, it's-it's classic battle strategy to throw one's opponent off his game. He-he-he's just trying to provoke you. Uh, to taunt you, to, to goad you into, uh, some mishap of some sort.
Xander: The nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah approach to battle?

CORDELIA: What’s a Bosh… whatever you said?
WESLEY: The opposers of the Awakening. The Bosh M’ad forged something to destroy the Beast. The Tooth of Light.
FRED: They made a tooth?
WESLEY: To the best of my interpretation, a weapon of some kind.
GUNN: How’d it work out for ’em? Wesley looks back down at the text.
WESLEY: It was never used. The Awakening was centuries away. In the meantime, every last one of the Bosh M’ad was wiped out by the Beast’s acolytes.
FRED: So this tooth thing must have had them worried. What happened to it?
WESLEY: Never found. The opposers kept it hidden.
GUNN: Great. So now we have to find a tooth in a haystack.

ANGEL: (crouches before her) I bet you're not big on trust games, now, are you, Faith?
FAITH: You gonna shrink me now? Is that it?
ANGEL: No, I just wanna talk to you.
FAITH: That's what they all say. And then it's just, 'Lemme stay the night. Won't try anything.'

GILES: Oh, there you are.
JENNY: There who is?
GILES: Our new friend Spike. He's known as 'William the Bloody'. Earned his nickname by torturing his victims with railroad spikes. Very pleasant. Well, here's some good news: he's barely two hundred. He's not even as old as Angel is. (frowns) Oh.
XANDER: That's a bad look, right?
GILES: I think your suggestion of running away this Saturday might've been a good one. Spike has fought two Slayers in the last century, and... he's killed them both.

ANNE: He hit you? What were you doing?
KENNY: Nothing, I swear to god. And then after he punched me he threw Les against the wall, about near broke her arm. Next thing I know he's reaching for his nightstick, so I just grabbed Les and booked.
ANNE: You mean he wasn't trying to arrest you...
KENNY: I'm telling you. He just walked up, said 'no loitering,' slugged me in the mouth, and then chased us for a couple blocks before we made it here.
