Bastinado Quote from Buffy
In a 2002 episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Principal Robin Wood, after mentioning the bastinado, says:
“No one ever knows what that thing is.”
Without hesitating, Buffy responds:
“A wooden rod used to slap the soles of the feet in Turkish prisons, but, if made with the correct wood, makes an awesome Billy club.” (7.2 - “Beneath You”)
