From the scene right before we see Faith show up at the Mayor's office:
Cut to the library. Buffy sits at the table while Giles pours
her some coffee from his thermos.
Giles: So she saved you. (walks slowly around the table)
Buffy: She could have left me there to die, Giles, but she didn't.
Giles: She opted to come back to town with you. That... That
bodes well. (sits) She still has a lot to face before she
can put this behind her.
Buffy: I'm not gonna give up on her.
Giles: (pours himself a cup) Then I think she stands a chance.

From the beginning of Doppelgangland:
Cut to Sunnydale High. Willow is lying on a grassy area,
concentrating hard. Soon a pencil floats up into view and starts
to slowly turn end over end. Willow smiles at her successful
levitation. Beside her, Buffy does sit-ups.
Buffy: The Watcher Council shrink is heavy into tests. He's got
tests for everything. T.A.T.s, Rorschach, associative
logic... (grunts and sits up) He even has that test to
see if you're crazy that asks if you ever hear voices or
you ever wanted to be a florist.
And a bit later:
Faith comes into the library followed by an out-of-breath Wesley.
Faith: (sarcastically) Well, that was a blast.
Giles: How did it go?
Faith: (points at Wesley behind her) Princess Margaret here had
a little trouble keeping up.
Wesley makes it to the counter and leans heavily against it.
Buffy raises her eyebrows at the sight.
Giles: (to Wesley) How did it go?
Wesley: (panting heavily) Faith, uh... (pants) did quite well on
the obstacle field. (pants) Still a little sloppy, though.
Faith shoots him an incredulous look.
Giles: Do you feel up to, uh, taking Buffy out, or shall I?
Wesley: (pants) Oh, no, no, no. (pants) I'll be fine. (pants)
Just give me a minute. (pants) And some defibrillators,
if it's (pants) not too much trouble.
Faith: You're gonna love it, B. It's just like fun, only
boring.
Giles: (sternly) Faith, this evaluation is a necessary part of
the Council's...
Faith: (apologetically) I know. I'm on board here. Just shooting
my mouth off.
