"Sorry. I couldn't resist. It's a quote from one of my favorite movies. She had to solve the labyrinth to get to the castle and save her baby brother." Buffy explained, then added, "there should always be a time limit or I guess boredom works, too."

In Buffy's case, she got bored easily with puzzle solving. She would rather just punch her way through to the answer. Willow and Giles were the brains and she was the muscle. It worked for Buffy.
