Angel: Okay. Look, if this is a mystical problem there's got to be some kind of mystical solution.

CORDELIA: Oh, no.

ANGEL: Take him. (Hands Connor to Wesley) Come on Cordy, wake up. It's all over. Come back to us.

CORDELIA: I haven't gone anywhere. Angel...

ANGEL: Please wake up.

WESLEY: Angel, is she...

ANGEL and CORDELIA: No!

CORDELIA: I'm not?

ANGEL: She's, she's still breathing, heart's still beating.

CORDELIA: Yes! But - If I'm not dead then...

ANGEL: She's just in some sort of trance or a coma.

CORDELIA: Like hell I am!

ANGEL: Well, let's - let's get her over to the couch.

(Angel and Gunn pick her body up.)

ANGEL: Easy.

GUNN: All right.

ANGEL: Easy.

CORDELIA: (watching) Oh-kay. I get it. This is some kind of bizarre birthday present you guys cooked up.
(Fred spots pill bottle on floor.)
CORDELIA: Alright. The joke's on me. Now put me back in my body!

ANGEL: It was a vision, wasn't it? I mean, she just started saying something about a girl...

CORDELIA: That's right. She's in a house on Oak Street (the others keep talking, we can't hear them and they can't hear Cordelia) the middle of Reseda. It feels like we have some time here, but, but, you can't hear me at all, can you?

LORNE: What's all the hubbub, bub?

CORDELIA: Lorne! Thank God! You can hear me, right? 'Cause if there's some weird, other-worldly thing going on you'd still be able to...

(Lorne walks straight through her.)

CORDELIA: Oh. That's not good. (A black shadow passes overhead) Did anybody else just see that?'

LORNE: Jumping Judas on a unicycle. What happened?

ANGEL: All we know is that she had a vision.

FRED: There is a lot we don't know. I think she dropped this.

(Holds up bottle of pills.)

CORDELIA: No Fred! Put that away. That's not important.

FRED: Seltrex.

WESLEY: Oh God.

ANGEL: What's Seltrex?

CORDELIA: Nothing! It's just...

WESLEY: Seltrex is a highly powerful migraine medication.

GUNN: Maybe we should get her to a hospital.

ANGEL: And so they can do what? Do what they did last time, strap her to a bed and tell us there's no hope?

WESLEY: Angel's right. Seltrex is potent but - it doesn't cause catatonia.

LORNE: I'm picking up some hardcore woo-woo vibes in the room. This ain't medical, kids. It's mystical.

FRED: Well, that's what I'm saying. There is so much we don't know. If Cordelia is taking a drug this powerful in secret, the visions are probably doing a lot more damage than she lets on.

GUNN: This last one must have overloaded her.

ANGEL: Don't say last! Okay? She'll come out of this. She has to.

CORDELIA: She will!

ANGEL: Okay. Look, if this is a mystical problem there's got to be some kind of mystical solution.

CORDELIA: There you go. Great idea!

ANGEL: Gunn, you and Fred go to Cordy's place.

CORDELIA: No! Bad idea. Bad idea!

ANGEL: (picks up CORDELIA's body) See if she's been hiding anything. Anything that could tell us what's wrong with her. Wes?

WESLEY: I'll hit the books.

LORNE: I'll take the little peanut.

(They leave Cordelia behind.)

CORDELIA: Does nobody care that there is a girl in Reseda that is about to be fed to a no-eyed, three-mouthed monster? (Hears indistinct whispering, looks around) What? Hello? Message. I'll leave a message.

(Cordelia's hands go through the pens she tries to pick up.)
