come wander through the BuffyVerse...| Joyce to Angel: you'll have to make the hard choices Buffy can't from The Prom (Season 3) | Next Clip in Episode |
ANGEL: Mrs. Summers.
JOYCE: I'm sorry to, uh... Well, I would have called, but, you know.
ANGEL: Please, you're always welcome.
JOYCE: My goodness, your place is amazing.
ANGEL: Yeah, I like a lot of space. I don't get out much during the day.
JOYCE: No, you wouldn't. (Her gaze pauses on a set of manacles that are fastened to a wall.)
ANGEL: Can I get you something? I don't have any coffee.
JOYCE: Oh, no thank you, I, uh... You don't drink? Beverages, I mean?
ANGEL: No, I do. It's just the caffeine. It makes me jittery.
JOYCE: Oh. I understand Buffy spent the night.
ANGEL: I'm sorry about that. We came back after patrol...
JOYCE: I, I'm not interested in the details. That's not why I'm here.
ANGEL: Okay.
JOYCE: I'm here because I'm worried about you two. In general.
ANGEL: What happened before, when I changed, it won't happen again.
JOYCE: That's not all I'm concerned about. I don't have to tell you that you and Buffy are from different worlds.
ANGEL: No, you don't.
JOYCE: She's had to deal with a lot. Grew up fast. Sometimes even I forget that she's still just a girl.
ANGEL: I'm old enough to be her ancestor.
JOYCE: She's just starting out in life.
ANGEL: I know. I think about it more now that she's staying in Sunnydale.
JOYCE: Good. Because when it comes to you, Angel, she's just like any other young woman in love. You're all she can see of tomorrow. But I think we both know that there are some hard choices ahead. If she can't make them, you're gonna have to. I know you care about her. I just hope you care enough.
