Episode Quotes


Wesley: Bitch. Not you - obviously. I can't tell you how sorry I am that I allowed this to happen.
Cordy: I believe it was Faith who allowed her elbow to collide with my face. Not - your fault.
Wesley: At least you only got the elbow.
Cordy: Well, if it's any consolation it really does look like you were - tortured by a much larger woman.

Angel: He'll come around.
Cordy: Wesley? Sure! People always get a little funny right after they've been sadistically tortured. Well, you'd know.

Cordy: I need you to sign these.
Angel: You understand why we have to help Faith, don't you?
Cordy: Totally. And here.
Angel: We can't just arbitrarily decide whose soul is worth saving and whose isn't.
Cordy: Oh, I know. And this one. Thanks!
Angel: Those were all made out to you.
Cordy: Yeah!
Angel: Paid vacation.
Cordy: Like I'm gonna stick around here while a psycho case is roaming loose downstairs with 3 tons of medieval weaponry? Not! Oh, and I'm thinking -- sugar high? Maybe not a good idea.

Kendrick: This girl supposedly has supernatural powers.
Kate: Really.
Kendrick: Come on, Kate. Everybody knows you've gone all Scully. Anytime one of these weird cases crosses anyone's desk, you're always there. What's goin' on with you?
Kate: Scully is the skeptic.
Kendrick: Huh?
Kate: Mulder is the believer. Scully is the skeptic.
Kendrick: Scully is the chick, right?
Kate: Yes. But she's not the one that wants to believe.
Kendrick: And you wanna believe.
Kate: Oh, I already believe. That's the problem.

Lilah: We found her.
Lindsey: Where?
Lilah: She's with him.
Lindsay: Is he dead?
Lilah: Well, he is a vampire - so technically, yes, he is dead. But not by her hand. She is his house guest.
Lindsay: What?
Lilah: That's right. The reason our little assassin hasn't made good on her contract is she's roaming with the mark.
Lindsay: We hired her to kill him.
Lilah: I believe I covered that with the assassin part.
Lindsay: And he ends up inviting her to spend the night.
Lilah: I told you he wouldn't be easy. He can't be bought, and apparently he can't be killed - even by a vampire Slayer. - Rumor has it he used to actually date one.
Lindsay: Who else knows about this?
Lilah: No one outside of this room. - Not yet anyway.
Lindsay: When word gets back to the senior partners this won't go well. We conspired with her, - paid her half up front, - and now she makes us look like fools. - So - question is - how are we gonna fix it?
Lee: I say we kill her.

Faith: So, how does this - work?
Angel: There is no real simple answer to that. - I won't lie to you and tell you that it'll be easy - because it won't be. Just because you've decided to change doesn't mean that the world is ready for you to. The truth is, no matter how much you suffer, no matter how many good deeds you do to try to make up for the past, you may never balance out the cosmic scale. The only thing I can promise you is that you'll probably be haunted, and may be for the rest of your life.

Faith: And what if I *can't* say it? There are some things you can't just take back, no matter how sorry you *are*, right?
Angel: Yeah, there are. I've got some experience in that area.
Faith: Right. And you've been doing this for a hundred years! I'm not gonna make it through the next ten minutes.
Angel: So make it through the next five, the next minute.
Faith: I don't think I can.
Angel: Yes, you can.

Faith: I've got to be the first Slayer in history sponsored by a vampire.

Faith: All my life there was only one person that tried to be my friend, went out of her way when I had no right or reason to expect her to. And I screwed her. Not to mention her boyfriend, only, him literally.

Wesley: He's a special case. He is reformed. He has a soul. In point of fact I've confronted more evil, slayed more demons ... slayed more demons. In short, done more good while working with Angel than I *ever* did while in the *Council's* employ.

Faith: Buffy... I'm sor...
Buffy: Apologize to me and I will beat you to death.
Faith: Go ahead.

Angel: I know Faith did some bad things to you.
Buffy: You can't possibly know.
Angel: You can't possibly know what she's going through.
Buffy: But of course you do. I'm sorry. I can't be in your club. I've never murdered anyone.

Lilah: Just so we're clear - we won't be putting any of this down on paper. This is strictly - a handshake deal.
Lindsey: Not that it is necessary for you to have hands for us to do business with you.
Lilah: That was species-ist of me. I apologize if I have offended you - in any way.

Lilah: Strike two.
Lee: This is getting ridiculous. The first assassin kills the second assassin - sent to kill the first assassin, who didn't assassinate anyone until we hired the second assassin to assassinate the first assassin.
Lindsey: Alright. This obviously isn't working.
Lilah: You think?

Buffy: You hit me.
Angel: Not to go all schoolyard on you, but you hit me first. In case you've forgotten, you're a little bit stronger than I am.

Wesley: Angel, it wasn't for her.
Angel: I know.
Wesley: It's because I trust you. Well, more than three gun-toting maniacs at any rate.

Lindsay: I believe that I have some information that will be of interest to you. Because, while it is true that we differ on a great many issues, we do have one thing in common.
Kate: Ah, our bodies are both 80% water?
Lindsey: An enemy.
Kate: I don't know what you're talking about.
Lindsey: No, of course you don't. And we can't be completely clear because - the law isn't clear on these matters, is it? I mean take for example those creatures that murdered your father. They could never have been brought to any kind of traditional justice, even if they had survived. And personally, I feel that you were totally justified in taking whatever extra legal measures you found necessary.

Faith: Angel said there was no way you were gonna give me a chance.
Buffy: I gave you every chance. I tried so hard to help you. And you spat on me. My life was just something for you to play with. Angel. Riley. Anything that you could take from me, you took. I've lost battles before. But nobody else has ever made me a victim.
Faith: And you can't stand that. You're all about control. You have no idea what it's like on the other side. Nothing's in control. Nothing makes sense. There's just pain and hate and nothing you do means anything.

Faith: There is nothing I can do for you, B. I can't ever make it right.

Weatherby: Do the sacred oaths you swore as a Watcher mean nothing to you now?
Wesley: As a matter of fact they do. I swore to protect the innocent.

Wesley: That's for calling me a ponce.

Kate: I think you're gonna like the cell we have for you, Angel. It faces east. It'll give you a great view of the sunrise in about four hours.

Faith: I'd like to make a confession.

Buffy: Do you have any idea what it was like for me to see you with her? That you went behind my back...
Angel: Buffy, this wasn't about you. This was about saving somebody's soul. That's what I do here, and you're not a part of it. That was your idea, remember? We stay away from each other.
Buffy: I came here because you were in danger.
Angel: I'm in danger every day. You came here because of Faith. You were looking for vengeance.
Buffy: I have a right to it.
Angel: Not in my city.
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.
Angel: That's great. It's nice, you moved on. I can't. You found someone new. I'm not allowed to, remember? I see you again it cuts me up inside and the person I share that with is me! You don't know me anymore. So don't come down here with your great new life and *expect* me to do things your way. Go home!

Wesley: You all right?
Angel: For a taciturn, shadowy guy, I've got a big mouth.

Wesley: I hope she is strong enough to make it. Peace is not an easy thing to find.
Angel: She has a chance.
