Spike: What's this? Sittin' around watching the telly while
there's evil still afoot? It's not very industrious of you. I say
we go out there and kick a little demon ass! What, can't go
without your Buffy, is that it? Let's find her! She is the chosen
one, after all. Come on! Vampires! Grrr! Nasty! Let's annihilate
them, for justice, and for... the safety of puppies... and
Christmas, right? Let's fight that evil! Let's kill something!
Oh, come on!
