Re: Short phrase from Willow in The Body....



But back to Quin, For those of us who are title deprived (and indeed 
missed many an episode due to circumstances beyond our control) which ep 
was "Choices"?


JohnS

The ep in question, "Choices" took place toward the end of Season Three, just before the Prom. The story involved Faith and the Mayor kidnapped Willow to force Buffy and the Scoobs to return a box that the Mayor needed to complete the Ascension.  

After getting Willow back, they returned to a subplot of the episode, where Buffy, Willow and Xander were planning on their lives after high school.THE SCENE which everyone talks about is where Willow announced her intentions to go to UCSunnydale with Buffy. I quote the entire scene verbatim here;

Willow: Deep thoughts? 
Buffy: Deep and meaningful. 
Willow: As in? 
Buffy: As in, I'm never getting out of here. I kept thinking if I stoppedthe Mayor or ... but I was kidding myself. I mean, there is always going to be something. I'm a Sunnydale girl, no other choice. 
Willow: Must be tough. I mean, here I am, I can do anything I want. I cango to any college in the country, four or five in Europe if I want. 
Buffy: Please tell me you're going somewhere with this? 
Willow: No. I'm not going anywhere. 
Buffy: UC Sunnydale? 
Willow: I will be matriculating with Class of 2003. 
Buffy: Are you serious? 
Willow: Say, isn't that where you're going? 
Buffy: I can't believe it! Are you serious? Ah, wait, what am I saying? You can't.
Willow: What do you mean, I can't? 
Buffy: I won't let you. 
Willow: Of the two people here, which is the boss of me? 
Buffy: There are better schools. 
Willow: Sunnydale's not bad. A-And I can design my own curriculum.
Buffy: Okay, well, there are safer schools. There are safer prisons. I can't let you stay because of me. 
Willow: Actually, this isn't about you. Although I'm fond, don't get me wrong, of you. The other night, you know, being captured and all, facing offwith Faith. Things just, kind of, got clear. I mean, you've been fighting evil here for three years, and I've helped some, and now we're supposed to decide what we want to do with our lives. And I just realized that that's what I want to do. Fight evil, help people. I mean, I-I think it's worth doing. And I don't think you do it because you have to. It's a good fight, Buffy, and I want in. 
Buffy: I kind of love you. 
Willow: And, besides, I have a shot at being a bad ass Wiccan, and what better place to learn? 
Buffy: I feel the need for more sugar than the human body can handle. 
Willow: Mochas? 
Buffy: Yes, please. It's weird. You look at something and you think you know exactly what you're seeing, and then you find out it's something else entirely. 
Willow: Neat, huh? 
Buffy: Sometimes it is. 

Hope that answers your question.

"God does not play dice with the universe; He plays an ineffible game of His own devising, which might be compared, from the perspective of al the other players(ie., everybody), to being involved in an obscure and complex version of poker in a pitch-dark room, with blank cards, for infinite stakes, with a Dealer who won't tell you the rules and who smiles all the time."
