**I knew it! I knew it! Well, not “knew it” in the sense of having the slightest idea, but I knew there was something I didn’t know!**  
A classic. Willow to Xander in “Innocence” when she discovers that he’s been dating Cordelia.

“Doesn’t have to. What rhymes with lungs?”

Wesley, identifying a rare type of flower as he and Cordelia try to find a large compost heap in LA, in the Angel first season episode in which Angel helps women from another dimension who set people here on fire by accident, and whose men try to clip the back sof the women’s necks to control them. (Can you tell yet that I don’t know the episode name?)

Exchange between Giles and Willow in _When She Was Bad_. They’re discussing her behavior since returning to Sunnydale. Giles is also drinking a soda - and he looks very unhappy at the one sip we see him take (I just watched this episode yesterday, since I’m going through previous seasons before Season 7 is released on DVD Tuesday. Only select episodes from each season (and none of S4, since I don’t own that one. Yet.)  
Obvious, but I went through the thread, and I can’t believe it hasn’t been used yet that I could find.

Oh, the Alyson Hannigan _tour de force_: Dopplegangland. Willow pretending to be Vampire Willow, as her ruse is discovered.

Truly a great episode.

Xander to Buffy, Giles etc. in “I’ve only got eyes for you” (which, by the way, has my favorite line, “The quality of mercy is not Buffy.”)

“Maybe you need a better nature.”
