Buffy: Do you have any more copies of Emily Dickinson? I need one.
Giles: Buffy, while the mere fact of you wanting to check out a book would be grounds for a national holiday, I think we should focus on the problem at hand.

[Owen walks in]
Giles: [Suspiciously] What do you want?
Owen: A book?
Giles: Oh!
Buffy: [patiently, to Giles] See, this is a school, and we have students, and they check out books, and then they learn things.
Giles: I was beginning to suspect that was a myth.
Just for the record: you were right, I’m an idiot, and God

(BtVS, Episode 1x04: Teacher’s Pet)
Buffy: [to Willow] Okay, don’t panic, I’ll warn [Xander about Ms. French]. But I need you to hack onto the coroner’s office for me…Autopsy on Dr. Gregory. I’ve been trying to figures out these marks that I saw on his corpse… I’m thinking they were teeth.
Giles: …Um, this computer invasion that Willow’s performing on the coroner’s office, one, one assumes it is entirely legal?
Willow/Buffy: [innocently] Entirely/Of course!
Giles: Right…Wasn’t here, didn’t see it, couldn’t have stopped you.

Buffy:
Okay. Factoid 1: Only the praying mantis can rotate its head like that. Factoid 2: A pretty whacked-out vampire is scared to death of her. Factoid 3: Her fashion sense SCREAMS "predator."

Willow:
It's the shoulder pads.

Exactly.

Supporting Actress Appreciation Post!
Robin Riker plays Amy Madison’s mother, Catherine, in Witch (1x03). I’m personally a huge fan of her in this episode, especially her pulling off the terrified teen trapped in her mom’s body and cowed by her verbal abuse as well as the slightly-crazy mom in question. She does it flawlessly.
According to the BtVS/Angel wikia, Riker also “played another witch in the first season of Sabrina, the Teenage Witch [which Buffy references]. Additionally, Sarah Michelle Gellar was friends with Melissa Joan Hart, who portrayed Sabrina in the series.”
Buffy: It’s not Amy’s fault. She only became a witch to survive her mother.
Xander: Look, I don’t care why. I just care that you go on breathing.

Buffy: Mom, I’ve accepted that you’ve had sex. I am not ready to know that you had Farrah hair.
Joyce: This is Gidget hair. Don’t they teach you anything in history?

Xander:
So, we have no idea what caused [Amber's hands to burst into flame]. That's a comfort.

Giles:
But that's the thrill of living on the Hellmouth! There's a veritable cornucopia of fiends and devils and, and ghouls to engage!

Xander:

Giles:
Well, pardon me for finding the glass half full.
You have a sacred birthright, Buffy. You were chosen to destroy vampires, not to…wave pompoms at people.
