come wander through the BuffyVerse...| Lilah: He's not playing by the old rules any more. from Blood Money (Season 2) | Next Clip in Episode |
(Wolfram and Hart,Lindsey's office.)
LILAH: He was in my car.
LINDSEY: And yet here you are. Still alive. He was just trying to spook you.
LILAH: Yeah, well, it worked.
LINDSEY: Relax. He doesn't kill humans, at least, not with his own hands.
LILAH: He's not playing by the old rules any more.
INTERCOM: Mr. McDonald? Your ten o'clock is here.
LINDSEY: I don't have a ten o'clock.
INTERCOM: I'm not gonna tell him that.
LINDSEY: (opening door) I'm sorry, but I'm afraid I'm all...
BOONE: Shut the door.
LINDSEY: (to himself) 'Shut the door'.
(Closes it)
LINDSEY: Why don't you come in, Mr...
BOONE: Call me Boone. (To Lilah) Are you the...better half of this team?
LILAH: I like to think so. We run the Special Projects division. Did you have a special project?
BOONE: More like a grudge, with a fellow named...Angel.
BOONE: I haven't seen Angel since Juarez in the twenties. We had a little disagreement over a senorita. I called him out. We fought for three and a half hours.
LINDSEY: Obviously both of you survived.
BOONE: Well, I'd been working on a three day drunk at the time. I wasn't at my peak.
LILAH: How'd it end?
BOONE: The sun came up. I let him go.
LILAH: You let him go. Why?
BOONE: The sun came up. Would have been too easy? You people know anything about honor? Anyway, life is long, when you're eternal. Always knew I'd cross his path again. And lo and behold, I'm in a Karaoke bar downtown when I get wind of this lizard demon, Merl, who sometimes does favors for the vampire with a soul. I find Merl, and he tells me, that Angel's planning on bringing you two down.
LINDSEY: Did he happen to mention how?
BOONE: Don't know and don't care. All I do know is, when Angel comes for you, he's gonna find me instead.
LINDSEY: I like it. I like it and I tell you why: because of the finding you instead part. How much do you charge?
BOONE: This isn't about money. This is about knowing.
LILAH: Knowing what?
BOONE: Who's better. Him, or me.
LILAH: If you're talking about killing Angel, I'm afraid we can't help you.
LINDSEY: Mr. Boone, would you excuse me and my associate for a moment, please?
BOONE: Of course.
LINDSEY: Thank you.
(Lindsey leads Lilah into another room.)
LINDSEY: I'm using my discretionary fund. Bring him on board.
LILAH: Aren't you forgetting something? The Senior Partners want Angel alive.
LINDSEY: So?
LILAH: So, what if this guy is actually as good as he says and actually kills Angel?
LINDSEY: Boo-hoo! Let me wipe away the tears with my plastic hand!
LILAH: Hey, Napoleon, we are *Co* Vice-Presidents. This plan of yours explodes and we both end up in tiny pieces.
LINDSEY: What Angel hitching another ride in your back seat? So to speak. Besides, if he's not gonna play by the old rules, why should we?
