All the while, Xander stood there, watching her with the shiny doorknob cradled against him. She was right, it would make a nice addition to his collection, but he wasn't exactly focusing on that with Buffy standing there, trying to break her food on a solid door.

"You think?" he asked, voice sarcastic. "I knew we should have gotten cleaned up in our rooms." He hadn't mentioned that fact before stepping out for sidekick duty, of course, but Harris did often expect his best friend to read his mind.

Stepping over to the door, Xander dropped down to look at the hole left by the door handle. Inside the door, he could see the barest edge of some wires, which he fixed for with the end of his fingertips. "What do you think might happen if I pull these wires? We're not lucky enough for that to work like it does in the movies, are we?" He was trying to remain rational, but considering they shouldn't have been out in the first place, he was already feeling a bit worried they were responsible for triggering this.
