Line 303:
{{quote|'''Willow:''' Buffy's out. Glory has Dawn. Sometime real soon, she's gonna use Dawn to tear down the barrier between every dimension there is. So if you two wanna fight, do it after the world ends, okay? All right. First we head back to Sunnydale. Xander'll take Giles to a hospital. Anya's looking after Tara. And Spike, you find Glory. Check her apartment, see if she's still there. Try anything stupid, like payback, and I will get Very Cranky. (looks at them) Everyone clear?}}
* This:
{{quote|'''Willow:''' Spike was right. Snap out of it! What you're going through right now? It's called guilt. It's an emotion, and it's important, but it's not more than that. Buffy, you have had [[Title Drop|the weight of the world]] on your shoulders since high school, and for one second you wanted it to be over. So what?! <br />
'''Buffy:''' I killed Dawn. <br />
'''Willow:''' Hello, your sister? Not dead yet! But she will be soon, if you don't come back to us. <br />
'''Buffy:''' What if I can't? <br />
'''Willow:''' Then I guess you're right. You really did kill your sister. ''[turns to walk away]'' <br />
'''Buffy:''' Where are you going? <br />
'''Willow:''' Where you're needed. You coming? }}
* Willow got a Crowning Moment in the Season 5 finale, when Glory, noticing Tara (who had been driven insane by her) wandering around amongst her minions and contemptuously asking her "What are you doing here?", Willow calmly walks up beside her and replies in a tone somehow both deadpan and with barely suppressed rage "She's with me", before grabbing Glory's head and sucking away all of the energy keeping her mentally composed and redirecting it to Tara, thus simultaneously and instantly healing her lover and blasting a ''hellgod'' across a construction yard, significantly weakened.
Line 325:
* The episode "Tough Love" has one of Giles' best CMOA. After finding one of Glory's minions spying on them, Giles tells Anya and Willow to get twine to tie him up, and proceeds to engage in off screen violence. The minion quickly decides singing like a canary to be the wiser of the two options. Best part? When asked what happened, Giles/Ripper cooly responds with, "He changed his mind."
** Immediately preceding making him talk, Giles reveals that he's known the whole time that the minion was spying on them, keeping up a conversation with Willow and making her feel better about herself after a fight with Tara, then wrenches open and slams the door so hard he knocks the minion unconscious.
** Giles' killing of Ben at the end of "The Gift", both for what he says and what he does:
* Personally I'd consider Giles' crowning moment to be when he killed Ben/Glory. That was so ridiculously badass.
{{quote|'''Ben''': She could've killed me.
** It may be a bit morbid, but what Giles says to Ben at the end of "The Gift" (just before his [[Shoot the Dog]] moment) sticks out in this editor's mind for sheer badass content.]
{{quote|'''Giles''': (gentle, almost fatherly tone) No she couldn't. Never. And sooner or later Glory will re-emerge, and make Buffy pay for that mercy.[ And the world with her. Buffy] even knows that, and still she couldn't take a human life. She's a hero, you see. She's not like us.
'''Ben''': ...us? }}
(Giles, without changing expression, reaches over and covers Ben's mouth and nostrils with his hand, suffocating him to death.) }}
 
'''Spike'''
Line 423 ⟶ 424:
* Buffy's speech at the end of "Bring On The Night", made all the more epic by the fact that when she makes this speech, she's battered and bruised, and manages to look the stronger for it.
* Buffy killing Caleb with the scythe.
{{quote|'''Caleb:''' You can't do it. You haven't got the ba-[[Groin Attack|THWACK]]<br />
'''Buffy:''' [[Pre-Mortem One-Liner|Who does nowadays]]? }}
* Buffy's little look from side to side after she cuts Caleb in half from the groin up.
