 "People don't fall in love with what's right in front of them. People want the dream. What they can't have. The more unattainable, the more attractive."

A mad scientist student is trying to make a girl for his Frankenstein's Monster of a brother, a old boyfriend of Cordelia's

Tropes

 Buffy: You might wanna avoid words like 'amenable' and 'indecorous', y'know. Speak English, not whatever they speak in, um...

Giles: England?

Buffy: Yeah. You just say, 'Hey, I got a thing, you maybe have a thing, maybe we could 'have a thing'.

 Cordelia: Why are these terrible things always happening to me?

Xander: *cough* Karma! *cough*

 Buffy: It takes more than that to get rid of me! (falls in open grave)

 Eric: You're gonna feel a little pinch, maybe some discomfort around the neck area. But don't worry. When you wake up, you'll have the body of a seventeen-year-old. In fact, you'll have the body of several.

 Buffy: Sorry, but I'm an old-fashioned gal. I was raised to believe that men dig up the corpses and the women have the babies.

 Giles: Grave robbing? That's new. Interesting.

Buffy: I know you meant to say gross and disturbing.

Giles: Yes, yes, yes of course. Uh, terrible thing. Must, must put a stop to it. Damn it.

 Giles: W-w-w-what I'm proposing is, um... and I-I don't mean to appear indecorous, is, is, um, a, a-a-a social engagement, um, a, a, a, a-a date, if you're amenable. (to himself) You idiot!

Buffy: Boy, I guess we never realized how much you liked that chair.
