A guy and girl standing at the stoplight. The girl is babbling...
Girl: Oh yeah, I love Buffy...watched every episode! And Firefly...
Seems like maybe they're on their first date...exchanging basic likes and dislikes?
Guy: That didn't last long...
Girl: So what--did you play a vampire or something?
Aha! He's an actor and so to impress her he told he had a gig on Buffy...
Guy: No. I was a worm.
Doh! Not quite impressive...
Girl: (laughing) A worm?!!!
Should have told her about your extra gig as "guy in crowd" for Law and Order...
Guy: Well, I was a bad boyfriend and then I got turned into a worm. And then I got turned back. And then Spike stabbed me.
Season 7, episode 2 - Beneath You: A giant worm-like creature begins stalking a young girl. As the gang begin to investigate, they realize its appearance in Sunnydale may be linked to Anya.
Girl: I don't remember that one! Do you have a copy? You have to send it to me!
Hmm--I'd like to see that, too...
Guy: Yeah, sure.
Light turns green.

Haha. Enjoyed that. Although if I played a dead body on CSI I wouldn't shut up about it.
ReplyDeleteI tell you--it's tough being an actor! I can't imagine what would be worse: having "Cop #3" on your resume or "Worm-demon."
ReplyDeleteAll I have to say is that she's clearly not really as big of a Buffy fan as she claims if she doesn't remember the episode. I mean, I can't picture the guy or anything but I remember everything that happened in that episode perfectly.
ReplyDeleteI can see why you'd use it to impress a Buffy fan. But, yeah, anyone else probably wouldn't be overly impressed by it.
I haven't seen many episodes of Buffy--but I'm sure I would have remember one about a worm! It would have sounded more impressive if he'd said "worm-demon" instead of just "I played a worm"--doncha think?
