WILLOW: It says that Meredith and two other girls in the car were killed instantly. They were all on the Fondren High Pep Squad, on the way to a game.
BUFFY: You know what this means.
XANDER: That Fondren might actually beat Sunnydale in the cross-town body count competition this year?
BUFFY: She wasn't killed by vampires. Somebody did dig up her corpse.
CORDELIA: Eww! Why is it that every conversation you people have has the word 'corpse' in it?

FAITH: (mumbling) Scratch you out...
FRED: She's not making any sense.
LORNE: And speaking of sense, have you gone on permanent sabbatical from yours? Tell me you did not shoot that girl full of junk, and then feed her to Angelus.
WESLEY: It was her choice. Faith knew the risks.
LORNE: Aw, she couldn't! (Fred glares at them, then quieter) Wesley, I know what that drug does to people. Especially when they super-size the doses to make sure they really get the job done. And you damn well know it too.

We see Buffy standing in a circle of people. Riley makes his way through towards her. RILEY: Excuse me. Hi.
BUFFY: Hi.
RILEY: Um...Buffy... (He pauses looking at a loss.) You do the reading on chapter 9?
BUFFY: Uh-huh. (She gives him a look.)
RILEY: Wow. Some theories, huh? (He gives an earnest grin.)
(Buffy smiles, as if holding back a laugh.)
RILEY: Cheese? (He holds up a cube of cheese on a stick.)

Cordelia: Oz ate someone last night.
Willow: He did not!
Xander: Oz does not eat people. It's more werewolf play. You know, I bat you around a little bit, like a cat toy. I have harmless, wolf fun. Is it Oz's fault that, you know, side effect, people get cut to ribbons, and maybe then he'll take a little nibble and... I'm not helping, am I?
Giles: No. Oz may have got out of his cage last night.
Oz: Or maybe there's a, another werewolf roaming the woods.
Giles: Perhaps. Perhaps it's something else entirely.
Buffy: It's okay. We'll work together, and we'll figure this out.
