<b>Quotes:</b>

BUFFY: Xander! What happened?

XANDER: Vampires. The ones you could handle yourself.

BUFFY: Where are the others?

XANDER: I don't know. I don't know what your problem is, what your issues are. But as of now, I officially don't care. If you'd worked with us for five seconds, you coulda stopped this.

BUFFY: We, we just have to think. Where would they have taken them?

XANDER: If they hurt Willow, I'll kill you.
