BUFFY
You known it's just, like,
nothing's simple.
I'm always trying to work it out. Who to
hate,
or love … who to trust… it's like
the more I know, the more confused I
get.
GILES
I believe that's called
growing up.
BUFFY
(little voice)
I'd like to
stop, then. Okay?
GILES
I know the
feeling.
BUFFY
Well, does it ever get
easy?
Ford BURSTS from the grave, a snarling VAMPIRE, and lunges at Buffy -- who plants a stake firmly in his chest. She doesn't even look as he explodes into dust.
GILES
You mean life?
BUFFY
Yeah. Does it get
easy?
GILES
What do you want me to
say.
She thinks about it a moment.
BUFFY
Lie to me.
GILES
Yes. It's terribly
simple.
As they start out of the graveyard:
GILES
The good-guys are stalwart and
true.
The bad-guys are easily distinguished
by their pointy horns
or black hats and
we always defeat them and save the day.
Nobody
ever dies…and everybody lives
happily ever after.
BLACK OUT.
BUFFY (O.S.)
(with weary
affection)
Liar.

And now the west coasters have put down their remotes.
Goodbye BTVS.
