Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 3 Episode 9: "The Wish" Quotes
You know what I've been asking myself a lot this last week? Why me? Why do I get impaled? Why do I get bitten by snakes? Why do I fall for incredible losers? And, you know, I think I've finally figured it out. What my problem is. It's Buffy Summers.
Cordelia
Giles: "In order to defeat Anyanka, one must destroy her power center. This should reverse all the wishes she's granted rendering her mortal and powerless again." You see, without her power center, she'll just be an ordinary woman again. And all of this will be, um, well, different. Well, I'd say that my Watcher muscles haven't completely atrophied after all.
Buffy: Great. What's her power center?
Giles: Um, well, um, uh... It doesn't say.
Buffy: Why don't I just put a stake through her heart?
Giles: She's not a vampire.
Buffy: Yeah? Well, you'd be surprised how many things that'll kill.
Giles: I don't want to kill her, Miss Summers. I want to reverse whatever effect she's had on this... this world.
Buffy: You're taking an awful lot on faith here, Jeeves.
Giles: Giles.
Buffy: Kill the bad fairy, destroy the bad fairy's power center, whatever... and all the troubles go away?
Angel: The Master rose. He let me live... to punish me. I kept hoping maybe you'd come. My destiny...
Buffy: Is this a "get-in-my-pants" thing? You guys in Sunnydale talk like I'm the second coming.
Xander: But, you know what really bugs me? Okay, we kissed. It was a mistake, but I know that was positively the last time we were ever gonna kiss.
Willow: Darn tootin'.
Xander: And they burst in rescuing us without even knocking? I mean this is really all their fault.
Buffy: Your logic does not resemble our earth logic.
Xander: Mine is much more advanced.
Anyanka: This is the real world now. This is the world we made.
[Giles pulls the necklace from her and pushes her away]
Anyanka: You trusting fool! How do you know the other world is any better than this?
Giles: Because it has to be.
