Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Season 1

Jenny:
Honestly, what is it about them that bothers you so much?

Giles:
The smell.

Jenny:

Giles:

The knowledge gained from a computer is a - it, uh, it has no no texture, no-no context. It's-it's there and then it's gone. If it's to last, then-then the getting of knowledge should be, uh, tangible, it should be, um, smelly.
