- Buffy Summers: The funeral was... It was brutal. But it's tomorrow that I'm worried about.
- Angel: What's tomorrow?
- Buffy Summers: That's exactly what I don't know. Up until now, I've had a road map, things to do every minute, having to do with mom.
- Angel: Tomorrow, the stuff of everyday living resumes.
- Buffy Summers: And everybody expects me to know how to do it, because I'm "so strong."
- Angel: You just need some time. I'm sure everybody understands that.
- Buffy Summers: Time's not the issue. I can stick wood in vampires, but Mom was the strong one in real life. She always knew how to make things better, just what to say.
- Angel: Yeah. You'll find your way. I mean, not all at once, but in...
- Buffy Summers: I don't know. I keep thinking about it... when I found her. If I had just gotten there ten minutes earlier...
- Angel: You said they told you it wouldn't have mad a difference.
- Buffy Summers: They said "probably" it wouldn't have made a difference. The exact thing they say was "probably." I haven't told that to anyone.
- Angel: Doesn't make it your fault. Couldn't have done anything different.
- Buffy Summers: [sighs] I didn't even *start* CPR until they told me. I fell apart. That's how good I am at being a grown-up.
- Angel: Buffy...
- Buffy Summers: And it'd be okay if it was just me I had to worry about... but Dawn...
- Angel: Look, it's okay. I know you don't feel like it now, but you are strong, Buffy. You're gonna figure this out... and you have people to help you. You don't have to do this alone.
- Buffy Summers: It's gonna be light soon...
- Angel: I can stay in town as long as you want me.
- Buffy Summers: How's forever? Does forever work for you...? That's a bad idea. I'm seriously needy right now.
- Angel: Let me worry about the neediness. I can handle it.
- [they start to kiss then with more passion but finally stop]
- Buffy Summers: I told you... You'd better go.
- Angel: [sighs] I'm sorry.
- Buffy Summers: No... I'm *so* grateful that you came, Angel. I didn't think I was gonna be able to make it through the night...
- Angel: Well, we still have a few more minutes until I have to go.
- Buffy Summers: Good...
- [leans on his chest]
- Buffy Summers: Good.
- Spike: [on Joyce's passing] I liked the lady! Understand, monkey boy? She was decent. She didn't put on airs. She always had a nice cuppa for me... And she never treated me like a freak!
- Willow Rosenberg: What did I have for breakfast this morning? Do you remember?
- Tara Maclay: Huh?
- Willow Rosenberg: I-I wanna say bagel, but I think that was yesterday. You had two eggs, sunny-side up. I remember because they were wiggling at me like little boobs.
- Tara Maclay: Sassy eggs.
- Anya: Well, I just think I understand sex more now. It's not just about two bodies smooshing together. It's about life. It's about making life.
- Xander Harris: Right. When two people are much older and way richer and far less stupid.
- Anya: Breathe. You're turning colors. I'm not ready to make life with you, but I could. We could. Life could come out of our love and our smooshing and that's beautiful. It all makes me feel like we're a part of something bigger, like I'm more awake somehow. You know?
- Xander Harris: You goin' home?
- Willow Rosenberg: I'm gonna stop by my mom's first. Been doing that a lot lately.
- Xander Harris: Yeah. Actually, I might stop by your mom's, too... Well, I'm not going to *my* place. Those people are scary.
- [first lines]
- [picking out a coffin]
- Rupert Giles: Buffy, you're here... You all right?
- Buffy Summers: Yeah.
- Funeral Director: Did you find something?
- Buffy Summers: This one.
- Funeral Director: It's a fine choice. It speaks of your deep feeling for the deceased.
