Quotes 

• Willow Rosenberg : You're thinking too much. Maybe you need to be impulsive.

  Buffy Summers : Impulsive? Do you remember my ex-boyfriend, the vampire? I slept with him, he lost his soul, now my boyfriend's gone forever and the demon that wears his face is killing my friends. The next impulsive decision I make will involve my choice of dentures.

  Willow Rosenberg : Okay, the Angel thing went badly, I'm on board with that, but that's not your fault. And anyways, love isn't always like that. Love can be... nice.

• Rupert Giles : Ooh! Sounds like paranormal phenomena.

  Willow Rosenberg : A ghost? Cool!

  Xander Harris : Oh, no, no. No. No cool. This was no wimpy chain-rattler. This was, "I'm dead as hell and I'm not gonna take it anymore."

  Rupert Giles : Well, despite the Xander-speak, that's a fairly accurate definition of a poltergeist.

  Xander Harris : I defined something...? Accurately...? Guess I'm done with the book learning.

  Buffy Summers : So we have some bad boo on our hands?

  Rupert Giles : Yes.

  Willow Rosenberg : Well, why is it here? Does it just wanna scare people?

  Rupert Giles : Unfortunately, he doesn't know exactly what he wants. That's-That's the trouble. See, uh, many times the spirit is plagued by all manner worldly troubles. Being dead, it has no way to-to-to make its peace. So it-it-it lashes out, growing ever more confused, ever more angry.

  Buffy Summers : So it's a normal teenager... Only dead.

  Willow Rosenberg : Well, what can we do? Is there any way to stop it?

  Rupert Giles : Well, the only tried and true way is to work out what unresolved issues keep it here and-and-and-and, um... resolve them.

  Buffy Summers : Fabulous! Now we're Dr. Laura for the deceased.

  Rupert Giles : Only if we can find out who the spirit is... or was.

• Willow Rosenberg : It says a student murdered a teacher on the night of the Sadie Hawkins dance. The rumor was they were having an affair and she tried to break it off. After he killed her, he went into the music room and shot himself.

  Xander Harris : Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a ghost.

• Xander Harris : He killed a person and killed himself. Those are pretty much two of the dumbest things you could do.

  Willow Rosenberg : I know, but... Well, don't you feel kind of bad for them?

  Buffy Summers : Sure I feel lousy. For her. He's a murderer and he should pay for it.

  Willow Rosenberg : With his life?

  Buffy Summers : No, he should be doing sixty years in a prison, breaking rocks and making special friends with Roscoe the weightlifter.

  Xander Harris : Yikes! The quality of mercy is not Buffy.

• Willow Rosenberg : Buffy, you were right. The time for touch-feely communication has passed. I've done some homework and found out the only solution is the final solution.

  Xander Harris : Nuke the school...? I like that.

• [at the Bronze where Buffy just tuned down a date with Ben] 

  Willow Rosenberg : Hey. You're bailin'?

  Buffy Summers : Yeah. I'm gonna stop by the library and see if Giles wants me to patrol, and then sack it.

  Willow Rosenberg : You've been doing that a lot... patrolling and sacking. In fact, you've kind of been "All work and no play Buffy."

  Buffy Summers : I play. I have big fun. I came here tonight, didn't I?

  Willow Rosenberg : You came, you saw, you... rejected.
