DAWN
I miss Tara, too.
Willow goes very, very still. Dawn talks faster.
DAWN (cont'd)
But this... what you're doing here... this is not the way to go, you're only going to make things worse, but I promise, it's still not too late to...
Willow holds a finger up to Dawn's face, silencing her.
WILLOW
You miss her?
DAWN
Yes.
WILLOW
Did you cry? (before she answers) Of course you did. I get that, I understand the crying, you cry because you're human. But you weren't always.
DAWN
Yes I was...
WILLOW
No - please, you're telling me you don't remember? You used to be ...what, some mystic ball of energy. Maybe that's why you're crying all the time, "Dawny." You don't belong here.
Willow gets up in Dawn's face.
WILLOW (cont'd)
Wanna go back? End the pain? You'll be happier. I'd be happier. We'll all be a lot happier without having to listen to all your constant whining.
Dawn starts to tear up, fighting her fear.
DAWN
Willow... stop...
WILLOW
(mocking) "Mom!" "Buffy!" "Tara!" Waah!
Come on, someone's gotta stop the carnage. It's time you went back to being a little energy ball.
-Two to go.
