2. I was very close to going for Xander and Anya for "They used to say 'Who's my little patriot, you?' when I was older and therefore smaller than I am now. Muffin?", but then I remembered a) lesbian, gay-type lovers, b) "registered? Of course we're r-r-r-" "Registered" and c) Tara shouting out "five!" or whatever level she shouts out. Anya does have the funniest line in the episode though, with "Willow's a demon!?!"

3. I went with "I have another answer," because I think civilians should definitely be allowed into the fight if they are committed to it (which the Scoobies are!), but I do think that greater responsibility by, er, Giles should be taken to ensure that they don't all get killed. That I think is a mark against Giles but not Buffy. That said, I guess by season five they have proven themselves pretty up to the task.

The "what witchery level are you registered as" gag is just brilliant. I'm still not convinced the watcher isn't just messing with them, but Amber Benson just sells it. Especially that little "I have no idea what I just said" shrug.

One of the funniest lines of the series, I'd say.
