"Hello, Anya. Can you get me these items?" Spike handed her the last portion of Darla's list. He hoped that there was enough cash left.
"Do you have the money to pay for these items?" Anya glared angrily at Spike.
"You bet I have the cash, ducks." He took out a wad of cash to shut her up.
"Well, then, I'll get you those items. Spike, why do you need this stone. It's very dangerous." Anya
took out a red stone which glimmered. This must be the binding crystal.
"I'm performing a spell and it's part of the spell." Spike was sort of lying to the girl. He needed
it to help Darla and Dru's insane plan, which had a certain appeal to him.
"Do you have any idea how dangerous this stone is, if used incorrectly?"
She tried to warn him, but he was afraid of what Darla and Dru would do to him if he failed.
"Yeah, I know." He didn't want to hear another lecture. "Will
you please just give me the soddin' stone,for christ sakes."
"Fine, Spike. That's eighty three bucks." Anya smiled when he handed her the money.

"Are you two done fighting? Good, now Harmony I need you to lure Buffy away from her house." Darla
patted Drusilla's head.
"Why do you need Buffy away from her house?" Harmony didn't like Darla's plan.
"Oh the stars are dripping with tears. Sweet blood of a slayer fills me like a ripe wine." Drusilla licked
the dolls face.
"I need to get some strands of Buffy's hair if I'm to invade her dreams." She needed those supplies.
"Darla, how is invading Buffy's dream going to help us." Harmony asked the elder vampiress.
"Portals within portals. Dreams are the entrance to her heart. The heart nutures the soul." Drusilla tried to
explain the purpose.
"Please talk normally, Drusilla." Harmony really hated this bitch.

"Buffy, Darla came back through a dangerous ritual that Wolfram and Hart performed." Angel looked at Buffy, then cast an almost murderous glance at Riley.
"Can someone please tell me who the hell is Darla?" Riley simply kept his eyes firmly on Angel, who was comforting his girl.
"Riley, will you please check on Dawn." She simply wanted to hear the story from Angel first.
"Buffy, I should be part of this discussion." Riley raised his voice, adamant that he stay.
"Riley, Angel and I need to talk. I promise to fill you in later." She told him.
"Fine." Riley hated that he was always being cut out of the important discussions.
