Rearranged the side of my computer...got rid of some of the stickers, moved stuff, ect. And got a new thing on my door, and in my binder. Yeah, all the same...
40 INT. BASEMENT SUNNYDALE HIGH - DAY
Back in the room where Spike was. He's still crouched down on the floor on his tiptoes, hugging his knees. He looks vulnerable, like he's in there with someone or something dangerous.
SPIKE
The thing is...I had a speech. I learned it all. Oh, God. She won't understand, she won't understand.
Warren is circling Spike, addressing him as Spike cowers in the middle of the room.
WARREN
Of course she won't understand, Sparky. I'm beyond her understanding. She's a girl. Sugar and spice and everything...useless unless you're baking. I'm more than that. More than flesh...
Warren morphs into Glory, who is still pacing and talking to Spike.
GLORY
...more than blood. I'm... you know, I honestly don't think there's a human word fabulous enough for me. Oh, my name will be on everyone's lips, assuming their lips haven't been torn off. But not just yet. That's alright, though...
Glory morphs into Adam. Apparently this monster is something that can change shape and impersonate other characters. The Morphing Monster is still pacing.
MORPHING MONSTER (as ADAM)
...I can be patient. Everything is well within parameters. She's exactly where I want her to be. And so are you, Number 17. You're right where you belong.
Morphing Monster changes to the Mayor and bends down on one knee to talk to Spike at eye-level.
MORPHING MONSTER (as THE MAYOR)
So what'd you think? You'd get your soul back and everything'd be Jim Dandy? Soul's slipperier than a greased weasel. Why do you think I sold mine? (laughs) Well, you probably thought that you'd be your own man, and I respect that, but...
MORPHING MONSTER (as DRUSILLA)
(touching Spike's face)...you never will. You'll always be mine. You'll always be in the dark with me, singing our little songs. You like our little songs, don't you? You've always liked them, right from the beginning. And that's where we're going...
MORPHING MONSTER (as THE MASTER)
(stands)...right back to the beginning. Not the Bang...not the Word...the true beginning. The next few months are going to be quite a ride. And I think we're all going to learn something about ourselves in the process. You'll learn you're a pathetic schmuck, if it hasn't sunk in already. Look at you. Trying to do what's right, just like her. You still don't get it. It's not about right, not about wrong...
Morphing Monster walks around behind Spike, and when it reappears, it has transformed into Buffy. As Buffy, it is standing with arms crossed in front, with a smug and serious look on her face, glaring at Spike.
MORPHING MONSTER (as BUFFY)
...it's about power.
