Why blood? Why Dawn's blood? Why couldn't it be like a-a lymph ritual or something?
'Cause it's always got to be blood.
We're not actually discussing dinner right now.
Blood is life, lackbrain. Why do you think we eat it? It's what keeps you going. Makes you warm. Makes you hard. Makes you other than dead. 'Course it's her blood.
This is how many apocalypses for us now?
Oh, uh, six at least. Feels like a hundred.
I've always beaten them. Always won.
Yes.
I sacrificed Angel to save the world. I loved him so much, but I knew what was right. I don't have that anymore. I don't understand. I don't know how to live in this world, if these are the choices, if everything just gets stripped away. I don't see the point. I just wish- I just wish my mom was here.
Dawn, listen to me, listen. I love you. I will always love you. But this is the work that I have to do. Tell Giles... tell Giles I figured it out. And, and I'm okay. And give my love to my friends. You have to take care of them now. You have to take care of each other.You have to be strong. Dawn, the hardest thing in this world-is to live in it. Be brave. Live... for me.
Weapons are by the TV. I'll grab the stuff upstairs.
Buffy... If you wanna just hand them over the threshold...
Come in, Spike.
Presto. No barrier. I won't bother with the small stuff. Couple of good axes should hold off Glory's mates while you take on the lady herself.
We're not all gonna make it. You know that?
Yeah. Always knew I'd go down fightin'.
I'm counting on you to protect her.
Till the end of the world. Even if that happens to be tonight.
I'll be a minute.
I know you'll never love me. I know that I'm a monster. But you treat me like a man. And that's...Get your stuff. I'll be here

We on schedule?
Yes, it's time.
Will?
Tara, baby? Is there somewhere you should be?
They held me down.
No one's holding you. It's the big day, right? Do you wanna go?
[pauses on the way to the door, points at Giles] You're a killer. [Quieter] This is all set down. [continues towards the door]
[to Willow] Stay close but don't crowd her. We'll follow in a minute. [to the rest of the gang] Hey, everybody knows their jobs. Remember, the ritual starts - we all die. And I'll kill anyone who comes near Dawn. [leaves]
Well, not exactly the St Crispin's Day speech, was it?
We few. We happy few.
We band of buggered.
