"I have to believe in a better world."

―Rupert Giles^[src]

In the Wishverse, Rupert Giles is a Watcher and the leader of the so-called White Hats, a group of vampire hunters. Having learned about the 'real' world from Cordelia Chase- before she was killed-, he contacted this reality's Buffy for assistance, but simultaneously attempted to summon Anyanka, having identified her as the demon who had granted the wish, in an attempt to restore the timeline to normal. In the subsequent confrontation with Anyanka, she asked him how he could be so sure that the other world was any better than this one. Giles simply replied "Because it has to be", before he smashed Anyanka's pendant, ending the wish and restoring reality to normal, albeit with Anyanka now powerless.
