Quotes 

• Xander Harris : Yep. Vampires are real. A lot of 'em live in Sunnydale. Willow will fill you in.

  Willow Rosenberg : I know it's hard to accept at first.

  Oz : Actually, it explains a *lot*.

• Xander : [to Giles]  You ready to get down, you funky party weasel?

• Rupert Giles : A true creature of evil can survive the process. No human ever has.

  Xander Harris : What's the problem? We send Cordy to fight this guy and we go for pizza.

• Xander Harris : This... thing with us, despite our better judgement, it keeps happening. Maybe we should just admit that we're dating.

  Cordelia Chase : Groping in a broom closet isn't dating. You don't call it a date until the guy spends money.

  Xander Harris : Fine. I'll spend, then we'll grope. Whatever.

• Rupert Giles : If Drusilla is alive, then i-i-it could be a fairly cataclysmic state of affairs.

  Xander Harris : Again, so many words. Couldn't you just say, "we'd be in trouble"?

  Rupert Giles : Go to class, Xander.

  Xander Harris : Gone... Notice the economy of phrasing. "Gone." It's simple. Direct.

• Rupert Giles : Here comes Buffy. Now remember, discretion is the better part of valor.

  Xander Harris : You could have just said, "Shh." God. Are all you Brits such drama queens?

• Xander Harris : [about Giles]  Looks like Mr. Caution Man, but the sound he makes is funny.

• Xander Harris : So... Buffy's party. Manyana.

  Cordelia Chase : Well, just because she's Miss Save The World and everything, you have to make a big deal? I have to *cook* and everything!

  Xander Harris : You're cooking?

  Cordelia Chase : Well, I'm chips 'n' dips girl.

  Xander Harris : [sarcastic]  Ah, horrors! All that opening and stirring.

  Cordelia Chase : And shopping and carrying!

  Xander Harris : Well, you should have had a person who does such things for you.

  Cordelia Chase : Well, that's what I've been saying to my father, but does he listen?

  Xander Harris : Uh, so, uh... You're going, and - and - and I'm going. Should... we maybe... go?

  Cordelia Chase : Why?

  Xander Harris : I don't know. This... thing with us. Despite our better judgement, it keeps happening. Maybe we should just admit that we're dating.

  Cordelia Chase : Groping in a broom closet isn't dating. You don't call it a date until the guy spends money.

  Xander Harris : Fine. I'll spend. And then we'll grope, whatever. I just think that it's some kind of whack that we feel we have to hide from all of our friends.

  Cordelia Chase : Well, of course you wanna tell everybody, you have nothing to be ashamed of. I, on the other hand, have everything to be ashamed of.

  Xander Harris : You know what? How sad. Forget it. Must have been my multiple personality guy talking. I call him Idiot Xan. A glutton for punishment.
