{{quote| '''Anya:''' Oh, for crying out loud. This is bizarre.

(pauses, smiles) Except me. (looks at Xander) Is this that thing I do that you were commenting-- (Xander nods)}}

'''Buffy:''' Spike?<br />
'''Spike:''' Meet me at the cemetery. Twenty minutes. Come alone.<br />
'''Buffy:''' Spike?<br />
'''Spike:''' Bloody hell ''([[Musicalis Interruptus|music cuts off]] and Spike talks normally)'' Yes, it's me. }}
* [[Continuity Lock Out]] ([[In -Universe]])
{{quote| '''Amy:''' I felt like I was in that cage for weeks. (Willow looks nervous) But it can still be okay ... right? I-I can still get into the swing of things, like ... prom's coming up. I-I'm so hoping Larry would ask me. We would make such a splash at- (sees Willow's expression) Oh. Oh god. (sighs, anxiously) He hasn't asked someone else, has he?<br />
'''Willow:''' Uh, Amy ... three things we have to talk about. One, [[Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV)/Recap/S2 /E15 Phases|Larry's gay]]. Two, [[Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV)/Recap/S3 /E22 Graduation Day Part 2|Larry's dead]]. And three, high school's ... kinda over. }}

* [[Love Is in Thethe Air]]: Amy makes a tall brunette lesbian instantly fall for Willow.
