I never loved Dawn so much as I did in this episode. Anchovies song is just sooo cute, I even sing it sometimes.
Buffy's and Holden's parts are my favorite though, followed by Willow/Cassie-First, then Dawn's. Even though I love every bit of the episode. My favorite Buffy/Holden part, quick and very amusing:
Holden: I was just wondering, is it possible, even a little bit, that the reason you have trouble connecting to guys is because you think maybe they're not worth it? Maybe you think you're better than them.
Buffy: Say, there's that bloodlust I was looking for.
Holden: Struck a nerve.
Buffy: I'm gonna strike a nerve cluster in a minute, you don't get off this. I don't remember you being this annoying.
Holden: You don't remember me at all.
Buffy: Yes, I do.
Holden: Yeah, like, after 30 minutes of reminding. And I don't take it personally because clearly you were in your own little world in high school. All chosen. All destiny. Who could live with that for seven years and not feel superior?
Andrew: Check communications?
Jonathan: Check. Check.
Andrew: Check. Check.
Jonathan: Check.
Andrew: Check. Check.
