come wander through the BuffyVerse...| Faith to Angel: maybe it's too late for me from Enemies (Season 3) | Next Clip in Episode |
ANGEL: Faith.
FAITH: Angel. I got nowhere else to go. Look, I hate asking for help, but I'm asking, cause, uh, I'm in trouble. I'm in trouble. The real bad kind.
ANGEL: It's okay.
FAITH: No, it's a couple of county lines over from okay, believe me.
ANGEL: Look, just talk. Come on. Start from the beginning.
FAITH: Mind if I skip past the 'mom never loved me' part and get right to it? I'm scaring myself.
ANGEL: I know the feeling.
FAITH: That's why I came to you. I don't want to get all twelve steppy, but remember when you told me that killing people would make me feel like some kind of god? (shows him her bloody hands) I think I just came down to earth. It's not human if that's what you're thinking. Not that that makes me feel any better or this guy any less dead.
ANGEL: Faith, you need help. You can't do this alone.
FAITH: I know. For real now, I'm scared. Scared of what I am, what I'm turning into. Cold-blooded straight up killer. Like you.
ANGEL: Not like me. I didn't have a choice. But you do. You can stop this.
FAITH: Believe me, I don't want to end up the way everybody said I would, dead or alone or a loser.
ANGEL: No, you don't have to.
FAITH: I don't know. Maybe it's too late for me.
ANGEL: It's not.
FAITH: Angel, I'm so scared. (hugs him)
ANGEL: It's alright, shh, it's okay.
They hug for a moment, then as they part, they hesitate, almost kissing. Angel pulls away.
ANGEL: Whoa. Faith, I, look, I can be here for you. But not like that, alright? I'm with Buffy.
FAITH: Buffy, yeah. I didn't mean it like that. Maybe I did, but I wouldn't press it. You love her, don't you.
ANGEL: I love her.
FAITH: Good for you. The two of you, you're lucky. Friends?
ANGEL: Yeah, we're friends.
FAITH: Then I'm lucky too. I'd better go.
ANGEL: Where?
FAITH: I need to cool down. Spend some time alone. Don't worry about me. You've been a big help. Just knowing somebody cares. Hey, I know I shouldn't be asking this, but do you think if things were different that things between you and me would be different, too?
ANGEL: We'll never know.
FAITH: Right. How could we?
ANGEL: Take care of yourself.
FAITH: Lifetime of practice.
Faith kisses Angel on the cheek, then leaves. Buffy appears outside the mansion in time to see the kiss.
