Quotes 

• Professor Maggie Walsh : You know the rules. You know I hate exceptions, and yet somehow you feel your exception is exceptional.

  Willow Rosenberg : Oh, but...

  Professor Maggie Walsh : It is. To you. But since I'm neither a freshman nor a narcissist, I have to consider the whole class. If your friend can't respect my schedule, I think it's best he not come back.

  [Willow, looking hurt and miserable, walks off] 

  Buffy Summers : [walks up to Walsh]  You know, for someone who teaches human behavior, you might try showing some.

  Professor Maggie Walsh : It's not my job to coddle my students.

  Buffy Summers : You're right. A human being in pain has nothing to do with your job.

  [walks away] 

  Professor Maggie Walsh : I like her.

  Riley Finn : Really? You don't think she's a little peculiar?

• [last lines] 

  Buffy Summers : Uh, last night... at the party, you wanted to tell me something?

  Riley Finn : Oh, yeah. Very important stuff... I don't remember any of it now. But you would have been fascinated, possibly even moved... Did Willow tell you I like cheese?

  Buffy Summers : You're a little peculiar.

  Riley Finn : [smiles]  I can live with that.

• Xander Harris : How's Wil dealing...

  Buffy Summers : With the black hole of despair she's been living in since Oz left...? She's dealing. I'm helping. It's hard. Ergo, party.

• Buffy Summers : Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go find something sluty to wear tonight.
