come wander through the BuffyVerse...| Lilah goes over Linwood's head. Or rather, just under it. from Deep Down (Season 4) | Next Clip in Episode |
LINWOOD: Alright, we've got a lot of ground to cover, so let's get right to it. But first, let's talk about Lilah. Everybody had a chance to review her file? Good. Recommendations?
LILAH: If I could just have a few minutes to explain...
GAVIN: I think your record speaks for itself.
LINWOOD: Volumes. Your failures at Wolfram and Hart outstrip your successes by an uncomfortable margin. Perhaps you would fair better at a less central office.
GAVIN: One of the third world dimensions maybe.
LILAH: (quietly) I'm sorry.
LINWOOD: What was that?
LILAH: I said, I'm sorry. I've made mistakes, but *fear* was never one of them.
LINWOOD: Is there something you would like to share?
LILAH: Why haven't we contained the vampire offspring for study?
LINWOOD: We're assessing that situation.
LILAH: The same way you're assessing Angel? Then why aren't we trying to pinpoint Angel's location?
LINWOOD: Lilah, this is *my* corner of the sky. *I* decide when the sun rises and when it sets. Lack of long-term vision has always been one of your shortcomings.
LILAH: And lack of courage has always been one of yours. You're afraid - of Angel and his son. And that's the reason for your daring strategy of 'wait and see', isn't it? You're afraid. And fear breeds weakness.
LINWOOD: Oh. I'm hurt. Is that *really* what you think of me?
LILAH: Yes. And Mr. Suvarta agrees with me.
LINWOOD: You spoke to a Senior Partner?
LILAH: He was really very helpful. He had some great hints on office furniture.
LINWOOD: This is outrageous! Are you actually telling me that you went over my head?
(Lilah touches her stylus to the palm-pilot in her hand. We hear an electronic beep - then a blade whips out of the backrest on Linwood's chair slicing quickly and neatly through his neck.)
LILAH: Just under it, actually. Mr. Suvarta didn't think Linwood's corner of the sky was sunny enough. You're all reporting to me now. Get out. Gavin. (indicates the severed head) Please - remove that.
