The Sunnydale Herald Newsletter, Tuesday, July 30

Jenny: Pretty flimsy excuse for coming by to see me. Giles: You should have heard the ones I threw out. I just, I wanted to, uh... see how you were doing. Jenny: I'm doing pretty good, actually. I've stayed out of mortal danger for three whole weeks. I could get used to it. I'm still having trouble sleeping, though. Giles: Oh, of course. Um... you, you, you need time. Jenny: Or possibly space. Rupert, I know you're concerned. But having you constantly poking around, making little puppy dog eyes at me, wondering if I'm okay... You make me feel bad that I don't feel better. I don't want that responsibility.

SPIKE: Fuss, fuss. The thing was about to strike. It was on your back. What was I supposed to do? As Angel walks into the room, we can see he's been run through with a large sword. There's a creepy demon bug on his back, dangling from where the sword exits Angel's body. ANGEL: Ask me to turn around. SPIKE: Heat of battle. There wasn't time. ANGEL: You just like stabbing me. SPIKE: I - I'm shocked - shocked that you'd say that. I much prefer hitting you with blunt instruments. ANGEL: You know, we only asked you along 'cause we felt sorry for you. SPIKE: If it weren't for me, you'd be bug food, so stop winging.

Giles: Stop, both of you. Uh, what, uh . . . What are you talking about? W-what's the Initiative? What. . . what on earth does it have to do with Buffy's new boyfriend? Willow: You know. I'm sure you know. Riley's one of the commandos. Giles: What?! Well that's marvelous, isn't it? Here I am, spent weeks trying, uh, t-to get a single scrap of information about our mysterious demon collectors and no one bothers to tell me that Buffy's dating one of them?! Who else knows?! Xander: No one. No one else knows this. Anya, and that's it! Willow: And Spike. Giles: Spike?! Spike knew? Xander: Only the basic stuff. You know, that Riley is a commando and Professor Walsh is in charge. Giles: Professor Walsh!? That fishwife!?
