Xander to Willow, discussing Buffy’s parental issues in “Ted.”

**Sore thumbs. Do they stick out? I mean, have you ever seen a thumb and gone, "Boy, that baby is sore!"**

Buffy to Giles in “Once More With Feeling,” after Giles noted that she just said it didn’t matter; they could face anything together.

Ok, I have two answers up there, so I’m going to post another question, with an extra credit part:

\*\*"Wait till you have have an evil twin and see how you handle it!

“I handled it just fine.”\*\*

In addition to who was talking and what episode it was… what was the reference?

The only thing I can think of is Xander to Willow in S5 “The Replacement”, and Willow’s response references S3’s “Doppelgangland.”

Ah! Willow said this in “Lie to Me”. I kept trying to think of when Buffy said it and it didn’t sound right… now I know why. Heh!

OK. I gave cliffy the other one, so I’ll take this one.

A line that strongly resonated with me, because I totally do that.

Riley to Buffy in Something Blue. Although, as someone who has never practiced a conversation and been caught I´m not sure I should admit to knowing this quote. 😉

I knew that Buffy on DVD was going to be useful to me someday…

Ok, for my next trick, I go with

Um… I´m not sure what to do now. I repeat my previous suggestion? 😕

I think the quote on the table is -

> [@](#):

from **Tenebras**

and I’m not sure - - I’m guessing it’s one of the pre-appocalypse episodes which narrows it down to one of about 20!

I think Spike said it…

why do all the easy ones come up whilst I’m away from the computer! GRRR!  
I’ve got a good one ready too…!

Yeah, it was pre-apocalyptic. But it wasn´t Blondie-Bear…

Tenebras

Er… or Harmony, for that matter.

I know that’s Jenny Calendar to Giles - which makes it either season 1 or 2.

I’m going to go with Season 1 and … (ok, I had to go dig through the DVD thing to find the name of the episode)…Prophecy Girl?

In “The Replacement”, Buffy to Scoobies huddled around the TV watching an old Kung-Fu movie.

Here’s a good one:

“OK, you know, this is beyond evil. This is insane troll logic.”

Buffy to Holden the Freudian Vampire, Season 7, _Conversations With Dead People_. One of my favorite slaying scenes ever!

How 'bout:

**Oh, don’t worry. I mean, they might not look it, but bunnies can really take care of themselves.**

That was Oz reassuring Willow after hearing that mutilated animals were found in “Phases.”

**What could we talk about? Oh! Hey! I know! How about the ethics of boyfriend stealing?**

Cordy to Willow, I believe, when they’re trapped in…a broom closet, after Will kisses Xander. Can’t remember the episode, but season 3, obviously.

I’ll post another if I’m correct

Nice, **Bricker**! Usually people guess Anya 'cause of the bunny reference.  
**What could we talk about? Oh! Hey! I know! How about the ethics of boyfriend stealing?**  
Cordelia to Willow in Season 3, _Dopplegangland_. She ambushes her in a hallway to talk about Xander!

Alright, time to get tough. How 'bout:
