-->'''XANDER:''' We didn't tell you. It was just ... we didn't, okay?
-->'''SPIKE:''' Listen. I've figured it out. Maybe you haven't, but I have. Willow knew there was a chance that [[CameBackWrong she'd come back wrong]]. [[BodyHorror So wrong that you'd have]] ... that she would have to [[MercyKill get rid of what came back]]. [[NobleDemon And I wouldn't let her]]. If any part of that was Buffy, [[StalkerWithACrush I wouldn't let her]]. And that's why she shut me out.
