天使 (1999) 5.1

Angel: [after biting the new link to the Senior Partners] Wow! You really are full of it. Kate Lockley: I feel like such an idiot. Angel: Lotta that going around. Lorne the Host: And besides, we all know you got a thing for ex-cheerleaders. Cordelia: You would dare to defy me? Angelus: Defy who? A big, scary voice? Whoa. Hey, I got one of those, too, you wanna hear it? [Talks into his hands] Angelus: You can kiss my vampire ass. That do anything for you? Angelus: Defy who? A big, scary voice? Whoa! Hey, I've got one of those, too. You want to hear it? You can kiss my vampire ass! That do anything for ya? Cordelia: Angel started the day over knowing he'd remember everything that happened? Allen Francis Doyle: It's pretty amazing, huh? Cordelia: Amazing he didn't check the stock quotes or the lotto numbers! Wesley Wyndam-Pryce: If anything happens to Cordelia because of me... Angel: Nothing's gonna happen to Cordelia. I won't allow it. Angel: How could The Powers allow you to be brought back, dangle a second chance then take it away like this? Darla: Maybe this is my second chance. Angel: To die? Darla: Yes. To die. They way I was supposed to die in the first place. Cordelia:

Darla. It's all about Darla. One thing you can say about Angel, at least he's consistent it's always some little blonde driving him over the edge.

Cordelia: Soup and salad, too? What is going on here? Angel: I forgot what you liked. Cordelia: Why didn't you ask me? Angel: Well, you said, why is everyone asking you if they can get you anything, and I didn't wanna do that. Cordelia: So you did this instead. Angel: Yup. Cordelia: I love you. Angel: I don't wanna research, all right? I wanna jump through the big swirly hole thingy and save Cordelia. Wesley: We might never be able to get back! Angel: It's Cordy. Angel: What, is it out of batteries? Is the thing out of batteries? Lorne the Host: I don't know. I don't know how it works! Angel: Dammit! I just got her back. Wes: Fred, I tried to kill you. Fred: That wasn't you. Wes: How can you know that? Something inside me was forced to the surface. Something primal, something. Fred: Do you wanna kill me? Wes: Oh, God, no. Fred: It wasn't something in you, Wesley. It was something that was done to you. Wes: I don't know what kind of man I am anymore. Fred: Well, I do. You're a good man. Angel: I'm more afraid of her dying than she is? What is that? Voices: Love. Angel: Oh, yeah. I saw their production of Giselle in 1890. Cried like a baby. And I was evil! Fred: And then we gotta find a dress for you. Something that'll make Angel crazy. Cordelia: Fred, sweetie, Angel *is* crazy. Angel: You all right? Cordelia: Yeah. We gotta move. Angel: You think they're not dead? Cordelia: You just looked really hot doing that. Angel: Oh. Cordelia: Yeah. Angel: Run. Cordelia: I'm not telling your sixteen-year-old boy that. Angel: Well, someone has to make sure he knows the facts of life. My track record with the whole man/woman thing isn't, you know I don't wanna use the words tragic farce but... Cordelia: I know my ABC's, my history, I know who's President, and that I sorta wish I didn't. Cordelia: I kinda have filled out even more. Fred: And I apparently ain't gonna. Connor: So Vampire Slayers. I was told about them. How come you're always girls? Faith: I don't know. Better at it, I guess. Jasmine: And look what free will has gotten you. Angel: Hey, I didn't say we were smart. I said it's our right. It's what makes us human. Jasmine: But you're not human. Angel: Working on it. Harmony: Just since you're all soulful now, I thought maybe, just maybe, you might've learned to open up a little. You know, talk? But I guess the leopard can't change his stripes. Spike: Spots, you dink. Leopards have spots. Harmony: Oh! Excuse me, Mr. Brainy. Thank you so much for sharing. Wow. What a breakthrough. Fred: Kind of cool, physiologically. They reproduce by vomiting up crystals that attract and mutate the microbes around them to form eggs. Wesley: Are you trying to turn me on? Spike: Back in the lab, she was standing right there in front of me, but there was no scent. Nothing. It's like she wasn't even there. Angel: I know. Spike: Look, I want Fred back as much as any of us but seeing her there, like that, maybe she really is. Angel: No. I lost Cordelia because some thing violated her. It crawled inside, used her up. No way in hell am I letting that happen again. Harmony: The girl of your dreams loved you. That's more than most people ever get. Wesley: I know. But it isn't enough. Angel: What the hell did you do? Wes: What I had to. Angel: I don't remember seeing stab Gunn on the agenda this morning. Wes: I avoided the major organs. He'll probably live. Angel: Is that supposed to make it all right? Wes: Nothing is all right! Nothing will ever be all right. Wesley: She doesn't understand our world. She needs someone to guide her. She needs. Angel: When was the last time you slept? You're not her savior. I need you here, working, not off drinking yourself into a coma, chasing ghosts. Fred's dead, Wes. You're still alive. Start acting like it. Angel: I don't remember what it was like. Being human. It was too long ago. Harmony: Not so great. Zits. Dandruff. Mortality. Although I do remember my heart. And the way it would thump when I kissed a really hot boy for the first time. That was cool. Angel: What? Cordelia: What? Angel: What do you want to say? Cordelia: Ah, me? Nothing. What makes you think I wanna... Angel: 'caus

e I know you? Cordelia: Well, it's really - none of my business. Angel: And that always stops you. Cordelia: Actually, it is my business, *our* business, because we're trying to do a job here, and what affects you affects me, and - anyway, I don't like to see you suffer more than you have to. I don't think you should blame yourself, or feel guilty for her death. Angel: I don't. Cordelia: Good. Glad to hear it. Angel: I didn't even know who she was when I killed her. Cordelia: Not her. Angel... Angel: Oh... you - you want to talk about... Cordelia: She was the love of your life and she died. And... you weren't there when it happened. You couldn't help her fight. You couldn't save her. You couldn't die with her. This is gonna be one of those talks where I do all the talking, isn't it? Well, I'm not gonna pry. It's not my style. Okay, it's totally my style, but I can tell that I'm not getting anywhere right now. But you have to tell me one thing. You owe me this much. What the hell happened with Holtz? Spike: Look, I don't know if you know this, but... I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, then she came on to me... Wes: If you've come to tell me you killed your parents, could it wait until another time? Lorne the Host: [aout Gene wanting to freeze time in a "perfect" moment] It just don't work, Gene-y. It's like a song. Now, I can hold a note for a long time - actually, I can hold a note forever - but, eventually, that's just noise. It's the *change* we're listening for, the note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music. Magnus Hainsley: Control, that's all anyone really wants. Isn't it... Gunn: Look, I say if things are quiet, let 'em be quiet. Wesley: Quiet may me good for mankind, but bad for business. Spike: Where you going? Angel: To see my lawyer. Angel: This isn't the answer, Darla. Darla: You don't even know the question. Buffy: I have someone in my life now. That I love. It's not what you and I had. It's very new. You know what makes it new? I trust him. I know him. Wesley: There's obviously not going to be any big swirly hole jumping without a big swirly hole. Angel: An ant with the best intentions or the most diabolical schemes is just exactly an ant. [while fighting Angel] Faith: I'm evil! I'm bad! Just do it... just kill me! Fred: We stopped "a nefarious plan for global domination" not "world peace," right?
