Olaf walks past, bumping Spike's shoulder
Spike: Hey, watch it, mate.
Spike turns to look up at Olaf. Both he and Xander stare.
SPIKE: On second thought, do what you like.
Olaf sniffs the air.
OLAF: Ale! Yes!
He walks over to where a guy is wheeling a dolly with two half-kegs on it.
OLAF: Ah, fragrant ale!
Olaf picks up a keg with one hand, lifts it to his mouth and begins to drink.
XANDER: (still standing behind Spike) So, uh ... think I should run and get Buffy?
Olaf finishes off the keg, sighs happily and tosses it aside. He looks around at the patrons staring at him in fear. He spots a waitress.
OLAF: Barmaid! Bring me stronger ale, and some plump, succulent babies to eat.
XANDER: I'm gonna run and get Buffy. (Pats Spike on the shoulder) Or maybe you could fight him.
SPIKE: Yeah, I could do that, but I'm paralyzed with not caring very much.
OLAF: (pointing at Spike) You there! (walks up to Spike and Xander) Do you know where there are babies?
SPIKE: (to Xander) What do you think, the hospital?
XANDER: What? Shut up! (to Olaf) Um ... listen...
OLAF: I find myself very hungry. And when I'm hungry I grow short of patience.
XANDER: Well, we can take care of the hungry, so how's about you just sit down in one of the ... sturdier chairs, and we can ... have a calm talk and something to eat.
OLAF: Can it be babies?
XANDER: Well, not so much.
OLAF: (disappointed) Oh.
XANDER: But maybe ... some roast pigs, and ... stags, and ... much hearty grog. (grins nervously)
SPIKE: They've got this onion thing...
OLAF: You cannot appease me! Do not try! (turns away) More ale!
He grabs the second keg off the dolly. Xander and Spike edge toward the door. Just as they reach it, Anya and Willow enter. Willow carries a book.
ANYA: Xander! You shouldn't be here. There's a troll. (She goes over to him and they put their arms around each other)
XANDER: Uh, a big guy? Hammer? (Anya nods) I think I noticed him. (points)
Anya and Willow look over at where Olaf is draining the second keg.
WILLOW: I wish Buffy was here.
The door opens again and Buffy runs in, followed by Tara.
BUFFY: I'm here.
Willow looks surprised.
WILLOW: I wish I had a million dollars. (The others look at her) Just checking.
BUFFY: (looks at Olaf) What's going on? Where did he come from?
Spike steps forward, looking nervous.
SPIKE: Hello, Buffy.
Buffy looks at him.
ANYA: (still holding on to Xander) Willow stole ingredients and released him from a purple crystal. He's a troll.
Spike looks annoyed, steps back.
BUFFY: (to Willow) You did this?
WILLOW: Me? No, we. I mean, us. (points to Anya) Uh, her. It's very complex.
ANYA: Well, we can stop him. Willow, do the spell.
Willow opens her book to read.
WILLOW: Uh, let the conjuring be-
Olaf suddenly stops drinking and looks over at them.
OLAF: Stop!
They all look up at him. He growls.
WILLOW: Nobody lets me finish!
OLAF: You ... told the witch to do that, Anyanka. (Anya looks alarmed) You seem determined to put an end to all my fun. Just like you always did when we were dating!
Buffy, Tara, and Willow stare at Anya.
Spike stares at Anya.
Xander frowns.
ANYA: Uh, um...
XANDER: You dated him?
BUFFY: You dated a troll?
WILLOW: And we're what, surprised by this?
ANYA: Well, he wasn't a troll then! You know, he was just a big dumb guy, and ... well, you know, he cheated on me and I made him into a troll, which by the way is... (embarrassed) how I got the ... job as a vengeance demon.
