Angel to Connor: If anything goes wrong with Angelus, you'll have to kill me from Awakening (Season 4) | Next Clip in Episode |
WESLEY: That's it then.
GUNN: (holding the cage door while Connor tightens the bolts) You got it?
CONNOR: (tightening bolts) Yeah. (finishes)
GUNN: Cage is solid, man.
ANGEL: All right. Tell the shaman we're ready.
LORNE: Hey, uh, listen, Angel cakes. If it's all the same with you, I think I might sit this one out upstairs, hm? You know how dark magic unleashing this unspeakable evil gives me the heebies.
ANGEL: It's OK. Tell Cordy and Fred they don't need to be down here either.
LORNE: Gotcha, chief. Break a leg.
ANGEL: (calls after Connor, who's headed upstairs) Connor.
CONNOR: What?
ANGEL: Look, I know you like to think that I'm the enemy, but if this works, I will be. I'm gonna become the one thing you were raised to believe I was. The thing I never—never wanted you to see.
CONNOR: Yeah. I think I can handle it.
ANGEL: Uh-huh. Well, just keep in mind that whatever Angelus says, whatever he does—remember, he's not your father. I am. No matter what happens—or, happened—I—I love you. Look, one more thing. Since I'm gonna be out of commission for a while, I want you to, you know, take care of everybody. Keep 'em safe. That means, if anything should go wrong with Angelus, you're gonna have to kill me.
CONNOR: (too quickly) OK.
ANGEL: *If* anything goes wrong.
CONNOR: (nods) Right. I got it.
