Oh, great. A book.
Oh, I, uh, I haven't gone through the new arrivals. Uh, put it in-in that pile.
Here, I'll get it.
Oh. Thanks, Dave. Willow pile.
Uh, uh, when I've examined it, you can, uh, uh, skim it.
Scan it. Rupert, that's "scan it."
Of course.
Oh, I know our ways are strange to you, but soon you will join us in the 20th century, with three whole years to spare.
Ms. Calendar, I'm sure your computer science class is fascinating, but I happen to believe that one can survive in modern society without being a slave to the, um, idiot box.

Well, I still prefer a good book.
The printed page is obsolete. Information isn't bound up anymore. It's an entity. The only reality is virtual. If you're not jacked in, you're not alive.
Thank you, Fritz, for making us all sound like crazy people. Fritz-Fritz comes on a little strong, but he does have a point. You know, for the last two years, more e-mail was sent than regular mail.

More digitized information went across phone lines than conversations.
Yeah, well, that is a fact that I regard with genuine horror.
I'll bet it is. All right, guys, let's wrap it up for today.
I've just got a few more. I'll hang for a bit.
Cool. Thanks.
Xander, you want to stay and help me?
[chuckles] Are you kidding?
Yes. It was a joke I made up.
[chuckles] Willow, I love you, but bye.
See you tomorrow.
Buffy, wait up.
I-I'm just going to stay and clean up a little. I'll, uh, I'll be back in the Middle Ages.
Did you ever leave?
