I have to get to work
Yeah, delivering melted cheese on bread. Doing your part to keep America constipated.
[The gang discusses a mysterious symbol.]
Right. It was carved into his chest, like a big creepy eye.
It's kind of like the CBS logo. Hey, could this be the handiwork of one Mr. Morley Safer?
I'm telling you I've seen this somewhere before. I just can't remember where! I mean, it's like...
It's the end of the world.
Again?
It's, ah, the earthquake... that symbol... yes.
I told you. I-I said "end of the world", and you're like "poo-poo, southern California, poo-poo"!
I'm so very sorry. My contrition completely dwarfs the impending apocalypse.
Besides, look on the bright side. If we don't come up with a solution, we might face an apocalypse.
[extremely happy] Really? You're not just saying that?
[To Xander] Kids your age are heading off to University. You've made it as far as the basement. And Red here couldn't even keep Dog Boy happy. You can take the loser out of high school, but...
I see what you're doing. You're trying to get us to dust you.
I'm not. I just don't want pity from geeks more useless than I am.
"I wonder where I've seen this before" - Where else? The place I spend most of my waking hours memorizing stuff off the sides of mausoleums. Big freaky cereal boxes of death.
[The gang discusses a mysterious symbol.]
It just made me feel like I was right back in high school.
Dumb jock. If it wasn't for you, he still would be.
Yeah. I mean, I know the Percy thing isn't really important. It's the dead guy on the bed.
Yeah. That's bad, too.
Ooh, and something else: he, the dead guy, was-was propped up, like whatever killed him wanted to drain the blood out of him. So I'm thinking the whatever took a bunch of the guy's blood with him. And I haven't been a nerd for a very long time. Hello, dating a guitarist. Or, I was.
Tell them about the symbol.
Right. Um, it was carved into his chest, like a big, creepy eye.
It's kind of like the CBS logo. Hey, could this be the handiwork of one Mr. Morley Safer?
I'm telling you, I've seen this somewhere before. I just can't remember where. I mean, it's like...
It's the end of the world.
Again?
It's, um, the earthquake... That symbol is, um...
I told you. I said end of the world. And you're like, "Pooh-pooh, Southern California, pooh-pooh".
I'm so very sorry. My contrition completely dwarfs the impending apocalypse.
No, i-it can't be. We-we've done this already.
It's the end of the world. Everyone dies. It's rather important, really.
So what do we do?
I stop it.
What's this? Sitting around and watching the telly while there's evil still afoot. It's not very industrious of you. I say we go out there and kick a little demon ass. What? Can't go without your Buffy, is that it? Too chicken? Let's find her. She is the Chosen One, after all. Come on! Vampires! Grr! Nasty! Let's annihilate them. For justice, and for the safety of puppies, and Christmas, right? Let's fight that evil! Let's kill something! Oh, come on!
