[about Spike] It's different. He's different. He has a soul now... What?
That's great! Everyone's got a soul now.
He'll make a difference.
You know, I started it. The whole having-a-soul. Before it was... all the cool new thing.
Oh my god, are you twelve?
I'm getting the brush-off for Captain Peroxide. It doesn't necessarily bring out the champion in me.
You're not getting the brush off. Are you just gonna come here and go all Dawson on me every time I have a boyfriend?
Aha! [points] Boyfriend!
This goes beyond anything I've ever done. It's a total loss of control, and not in a nice, wholesome, my-girlfriend-has-a-pierced-tongue kind of way.
Guy looks at me, let's just say his priorities... shift.
Why, because you're so hot?
Is what it is, yo.
Oh, please! I am so much prettier than you are. Oh, and, uh, for the record, our little encounter didn't exactly change my world.
[stops grinning] You're trippin'! That was rock 'em, sock 'em!
No, no, no, no! It was, it was nice enough, you know, and-and you're, you're very, um, um, enthused, and, I think with a little more experience, you--
Dude, I got mad skills!
Yeah, of course. Let's finish up.
[takes off her belt] Oh, hell with that! We're going again, baby. You're gonna learn a little respect here, pal.
Faith, [laughs] make me a deal, all right? We live through this, you give me the chance to surprise you.
What would be the surprise?
You... do know the meaning of the word, right?
Fine. Deal.
Good enough. [goes back to work]
No way you're prettier than me.
Little bit, yeah.
So here's the part where you make a choice. What if you could have that power, now? In every generation, one Slayer is born, because a bunch of men who died thousands of years ago made up that rule. They were powerful men. [points to Willow] This woman... is more powerful than all of them combined. [Willow whimpers] So I say we change the rule. I say my power... should be our power. Tomorrow, Willow will use the essence of the Scythe to change our destiny. From now on, every girl in the world who might be a Slayer, will be a Slayer. Every girl who could have the power, will have the power, can stand up, will stand up. Slayers... every one of us. Make your choice. Are you ready to be strong?
These guys are dust.
So, what do you guys wanna do tomorrow?
Nothing strenuous.
Well, mini-golf is always the first thing that comes to mind.
I think we can do better than that.
I was thinking about shopping. As per usual.
Oh. There's an Arden B. in the new mall.
Oh, good. I could use a few items.
Well, now aren't we gonna discuss this? Save the world or go to the mall?
I'm having a wicked shoe craving.
Aren't you on the patch?
Those never work.
Never.
And here I am, invisible to the eye, not having any vote.
See, I need a new look. It's this whole eye patch thing.
Oh, you could go with full black secret agent look.
Or the puffy shirt, pirate slash...
The Earth is definitely doomed.
Gotta move, lamb. I think it's fair to say school's out for bloody summer.
Spike!
I mean it! I gotta do this.
[Buffy laces her fingers through Spike's, and they burst into flame together]
[earnestly] I love you.
No, you don't. But thanks for saying it. Now go! I wanna see how this ends.
Looks like the Hellmouth is officially closed for business.
There's another one in Cleveland, not to spoil the moment.
We saved the world.
We changed the world. I can feel them, Buffy. All over. Slayers are awakening everywhere.
We'll have to find them.
We will.
Yes, because the mall was actually in Sunnydale, so there's no hope of going there tomorrow.
We destroyed the mall? I fought on the wrong side.
All those shops gone. The Gap, Starbucks, Toys "R" Us. Who will remember all those landmarks unless we tell the world of them?
We have a lot of work ahead of us.
Can I push him in?
You've got my vote.
I just want to sleep, yo. For like a week.
I guess we all could, if we wanted to.
Yeah. The First is scrunched, so... What do you think we should do, Buffy?
Yeah, you're not the one and only Chosen anymore. Just gotta live like a person. How's that feel?
Yeah, Buffy. What are we gonna do now?
[Buffy begins to flash a happy smile]
