Buffy The Vampire Slayer

Halloween, Season 2

Buffy: Halloween is dead for the undeadfrom Halloween (Season 2) XANDER: I can’t believe this. We have to get dressed up and the whole deal?

WILLOW: Snyder said costumes were mandatory.

BUFFY: Great. I was gonna stay in and veg. The one night a year things are supposed to be quiet for me.

XANDER: Halloween quiet? Oh, I figured it’d be a big old vamp scare- apalooza.

BUFFY: Not according to Giles. He swears that tomorrow night is, like, dead for the undead. They stay in.

XANDER: Those wacky vampires! That’s why I love ’em! They just keep you guessing!

Cordelia: Angel’s a vampire? The cuddly carebear-with-fangs kind?from Halloween (Season 2) CORDELIA: So, Buffy. You ran off last night and left poor little Angel all by his lonesome. But I did everything I could to comfort him.

BUFFY: I’ll bet.

CORDELIA: So, what’s his story anyway? I mean, I never see him around.

WILLOW: Not during the day, anyway.

CORDELIA: Oh, please. Don’t tell me he still lives at home. Like, he has to wait for his dad to get back before he can take the car?

BUFFY: Cordelia, I think his parents have been dead for a couple of hundred years.

CORDELIA: Oh, good. I mean... What?

BUFFY: Angel’s a vampire. I thought you knew.

CORDELIA: Oh, he’s a vampire. Of course! But the cuddly kind. Like a Carebear with fangs?

WILLOW: It’s true.

CORDELIA: You know what I think? I just think you’re trying to scare me off ’cause you’re afraid of the competition. Look, Buffy, you may be hot stuff when it comes to demonology or whatever, but when it comes to dating, I’m the Slayer.

Buffy: Halloween is come as you aren’t nightfrom Halloween (Season 2) BUFFY: What’d you get?

WILLOW: A time-honored classic! (holds up a ghost costume)

BUFFY: Okay, Will, can I give you a little friendly advice?

WILLOW: It’s not spooky enough?

BUFFY: It’s just... you’re never gonna get noticed if you keep hiding. You’re missing the whole point of Halloween.

WILLOW: Free candy?

BUFFY: It’s come as you aren’t night. The perfect chance for a girl to get sexy and wild with no repercussions.

WILLOW: Oh, I don’t get wild. Wild on me equals spaz.

BUFFY: Don’t underestimate yourself. You’ve got it in you.

Xander: call me the $2 costume kingfrom Halloween (Season 2) WILLOW: Hey, Xander! What’d you get?

(shows toy military rifle)

BUFFY: That’s not a costume.

XANDER: I got fatigues from an Army surplus at home. Call me the Two-Dollar Costume King, baby!

Willow & Buffy dress for Halloweenfrom Halloween (Season 2)

WILLOW: Does he know about your costume?

BUFFY: Nope. Call it a blast from his past. I’ll show him I can coif with the best of ’em. Okay, Willow, come out. You can’t hide in there all night.

WILLOW: O-okay, but, but promise you won’t laugh?

BUFFY: I promise. (Willow emerges uncomfortably in a sexy outfit) Wow! You’re a dish! I mean, really.

WILLOW: But this just isn’t me.

BUFFY: And that’s the point. Look, Halloween is the night that not you *is* you, but not *you*. Y’know? (doorbell) Oh! That’s Xander. Are you ready?

WILLOW: (nervous) Yeah. O-o-okay.

BUFFY: Cool! I can’t wait for the boys to go non-verbal when they see you!

XANDER: Private Harris reporting for... (sees Buffy in her costume) Buffy! Lady of Buffdom, Duchess of Buffonia, I am in awe! I completely renounce spandex!

BUFFY: (curtsies) Thank you, kind sir. But wait till you see... (turn to see Willow, in ghost costume again)

WILLOW: Hi.

BUFFY: ...Casper.

XANDER: Hey, Will! That’s aaa fine boo you got there.

Snyder: don’t speak to the childrenfrom Halloween (Season 2) SNYDER: This is your group, Summers. No need to speak to them. The last thing they need is your influence. Just bring them back in one piece and I won’t expel you.

BUFFY: (bends down to the kids) Hi.

SNYDER: Ah, ah!

Willow: she couldn’t have dressed up like Xena?from Halloween (Season 2) BUFFY: (holding picture of herself) This... this could be me.

WILLOW: It *is* you. Buffy, can’t you remember at all?

BUFFY: No! I, I don’t understand any of this! Uh, uh, th... This is some other girl! I would never wear this, that low apparel, and I don’t like this place, and I don’t like you, and I just wanna go home!

WILLOW: You *are* home! She couldn’t’ve dressed up like Xena?
