*Willow:How is it that you always know stuff?You always know what's going on. I never know what's going on.
Giles: well, you weren't here from midnight to six researching it.
*Giles: Two more of the Brethren were here. They came after me, but I was more than a match for them.
Buffy: Meaning?
Giles: I hid.
Giles: What ever happened to Latin? At least when that made no sense, the church approved.
Giles: Recording a bat-sonar is something soothingly kin to having one's teeth drilled.
Giles: I don't care what time it is, unlock his cell, unstrap him, and bring him to the phone!
Giles: You were right, all along, about everything.... Well, no, you weren't right about your mother coming back as a pekinese.
Giles: I had very definite plans about my future. I was going to be a fighter pilot. Or possibly a grocer.
Buffy: It's not noise. It's music.
Giles: I know music. Music has notes. This is noise.
Buffy: I'm aerobicizing. I must have the beat.
Giles: Wonderful. You work on your muscle tone while my brains dribble out my ears.
(The Dark Age)
Giles: This is completely unprecedented. I'm quite flumuxed
Buffy: I was a little sloppy on the round-house. You want me to try it again?
Giles:No, that's fine. You run along to class and I'll wait for the feeling to return to my arms.
(The Pack)
*Buffy: She saw these (SAT) scores and her head spun around and exploded
Giles: I've been on the Hellmouth too long. That was metaphorical, yes?
(Lovers' Walk)
*Snyder: There are some things I can just smell. It's like a sixth sense.
Giles: Actually, that would be one of the five.
*Giles: Testosterone is a great equalizer. It turns all men into morons.
*Buffy: Have I ever let you down?
Giles: Do you want me to answer that, or shall I just glare?
*Giles: It's devastating. He's turned into a sixteen-year-old boy. Of course you'll have to kill him.
*Xander: Maybe Buffy unplugged the phone.
Giles: No, it's a statistical impossibility for a sixteen- year-old girl to unplug her phone.
*Giles: Buffy, you have a sacred birthright to protect mankind. Don't stick out your elbow
*Giles to Buffy: Well, it could definitely be one of your prophetic dreams. Or it could just be the eternal mystery that is your brain.
Giles: Don't taunt the fear demon.
Xander: Why? Can he hurt me?
Giles: No, it's just...tacky.
Buffy to Willow: I need you a lot. You're great with , with the computer. Usually.
Giles: Right you are. And I'm great with the pacing and the saying of 'hmmmm' and 'ahhhh' and 'Good Lord.'
Wesley: Of Course, training procedures have been updated quite a bit since your day. Much greater emphasis on field work.
Giles: Really
Wesley: Oh, yes. It's not all books and theory nowadays. I have in fact faced two vampires - under controlled circumstances, of course.
Giles: Well, you're in no danger of finding any here.
Wesley: Vampires?
Giles: Controlled circumstances.
Xander: I'm not enjoying this
Giles: Well, shelve them correctly and we can finish.
Xander: I don't get your crazy system
Giles: My system? It's called the alphabet
(The Harsh Light of Day)
Buffy: Let me guess. Gwendolyn Post, not a Watcher.
Giles: Yes, she was. She was kicked out by the Council two years ago for the missuse of dark power. They swear there was a memo.
(Revelations)
Wesley: You cannot leave Sunnydale. With the power invested in me by the Council, I forbid it.
Buffy: (sighs)
Giles: Oh, yes. That should settle it.
Giles: Demons after money. Whatever happened to the still beating heart of a virgin? No one has standards anymore... |
