Help needed!

Okay guys, you have to help me out and jog my memory. What are the best examples of Buffy improvising und thereby defeating the evil monster-of-the-week? I am thinking stuff like turning a pool cue into a stake or using the pumpkin patch sign post.

Give me your favourite example. Preferably examples, where Giles is present. :-)

And yes, I need the input for a fic. I am very close to posting the next installment of Broken English.

I've had a very busy week, with no less than three Christmas parties to attend. Plus I had to go shopping with my little sweeties, to help them get their own Xmas shopping done. I therefore had very little time for myself or for writing, but I spent it dilligently on Broken English... So, pretty please, help me out. *makes puppy eyes*
