It will. I-it already is. OK, you know, you've been out of the basement for half an hour, and you've already stopped talking to invisible people.

OK, so there was that one episode in the car, but—

WILLOW
But you don't even know him!
ANYA
Yes, I do. I looked into him and saw his soul.
WILLOW
He was walking away, so unless his soul was in his ass --

BUFFY
Willow, you're a gay woman—and he isn't.
WILLOW
This isn't about his physical presence. It's about his heart.
ANYA
His physical presence has a penis!
WILLOW
I can work around it!

Andrew is our—actually, he's our hostage.

I like to think of myself more as a (makes quote marks in the air with his mitted hands) "guestage.

There's a hellmouth—hellmouth—underneath the high school. See, weird things happen on the hellmouth (zoom out) that attracts all sorts of, uh, bad people and demons and vampires. And now there's this thing in the basement of the high school called the-the seal of Danzal—Danzalthar, and it's sort of a door to the hellmouth. (stands in front of the board, nervously) Uh, due to some circumstances it got opened up... a little bit... recently...uh, and this, uh, nasty, nasty vampire thing came out of it. It was, uh, it was just awful, awful. This whole thing— (gestures in a circle with the marker) whole thing—is being orchestrated by something called "The First". It's made up of all the evil in the whole world. Oh, there's also these guys. (points to the harbingers) They work for the First. We don't know much about them except that they're very ugly and they're very mobile for blind people. Is that all clear?
