It’s Larry to Xander in _Earshot_.

By the way – just a bit of a hijack… did anyone else find it disturbing that Michelle Trachtenberg could move her hips like that as she does the “Why’d you run away” dance with Sweet?

That she could do it…no.

My reaction to it…maybe. 😃

Well, the one that comes to mind is the Angel “Room With a View” episode where Cordy has had enough of being pushed around by Dennis’ ghost mom and fights back.

Assuming that counts…

\*\*He lied and lied, and then lied some more, because, hey, who’s gonna notice with all the other lies flying around like little monkeys? \*\*

Anya in _Seeing Red_, when she tries to get a woman to curse her boyfriend but gets all caught up in her own problems instead. 😃

“Listen, I’ve been impregnated with demon spawn before, and let’s just say…didn’t work out.”

Thats Cordy to 3-eyed demon (Skylosh?) in Epiphany

" It’s like something out of Fitzgerald. - The man who can have everything but love. - Well, maybe in some ways you’re better off, because love is… - Well, in a way it’s everything. - But it’s also heartache and disappointment. - And those are good things to avoid."

Doyle to Angel in an early ATS S1 ep…

if so…

**And how long has that been going on**

I’m really sorry if this is wildly inacurate - - but I tried to find the exact quote on-l;ine and I can’t - - so…

Cordelia, to the Osh-kosh B’ gosh demons who implant their eggs in human skulls and gives them a third eye while growing. It was the episode right before Harmony’s return in “Disharmony”.

Good enough?  
**Randy Giles? Why not just call me ‘Horny Giles,’ or ‘Desperate for a Shag Giles’?**

Spike, who has lost his memory, to Giles, thinking he’s Giles’s son, in **Tabula Rasa**. “Randy” is the name sewn into the suit Spike is wearing.

“I’ve just learned of five new issues and I’m angry about all of them.”

Willow to Buffy, suffering from Freshman Flyer Overload Syndrome, in “The Freshman.”

And the answer Rm W/A Vu (although misspelled) is the ep I was looking for.

Here’s an easy one: “Why can’t I stay?”

Nope. Except the series and recipient, you’re all wrong.

“Why can’t I stay?” was Fred to Wes in A Hole in the World

“And how long has that been going on?” Might be Oz to his Aunt Maureen about his cousin being a werewolf in Phases

I’ll repost my orignal, since its still unanswered:

“It’s like something out of Fitzgerald. - The man who can have everything but love. - Well, maybe in some ways you’re better off, because love is… - Well, in a way it’s everything. - But it’s also heartache and disappointment. - And those are good things to avoid”
