011; they put the spark in me and now all it does is burn
S: It didn't work. Costume. Didn't help. Couldn't hide.
B: No more mind games, Spike.
S: No more mind games. No more mind.
B: Tell me what happened to you.
S: Hey, hey, hey! No touching. Am I flesh? Am I flesh to you?
Feed on flesh. My flesh. Nothing else. Not a spark. Oh, fine.
Flesh then. Solid through. Get it hard; service the girl.
B: Stop it!
S: Right. Girl doesn't want to be serviced. Because there's
no spark. Ain't we in a soddin' engine?
B: You thought you would just come back here and...be with me?
S: First time for everything.
B: This is all you get. I'm listening. Tell me what happened.
S: I tried to find it, of course.
B: Find what?
S: The spark. The missing... the piece that fit. That would make me fit.
Because you didn't want... God, I can't... Not with you looking.
I dreamed of killing you.
S: I think they were dreams. So weak.
Did you make me weak, thinking of you, holding myself, and spilling
useless buckets of salt over your... ending?
Angel--he should've warned me. He makes a good show of
forgetting, but it's here, in me, all the time.
The spark. I wanted to give you what you deserve, and I got it.
They put the spark in me and now all it does is burn.
B: Your soul.
S: Bit worse for lack of use.
B: You got your soul back. How?
S: It's what you wanted, right? It's what you wanted, right? And--and
now everybody's in here, talking. Everything I did...everyone I-- and
him... and it... the other, the thing beneath--beneath
you. It's here too. Everybody. They all just tell me go... go... to hell.
B: Why? Why would you do that--
S: Buffy, shame on you. Why does a man do what he mustn't? For her.
To be hers. To be the kind of man who would nev-- to be
a kind of man. She shall look on him with forgiveness, and
everybody will forgive and love.
He will be loved. So everything's OK, right? Can--can we rest now?
Buffy...can we rest?
