come wander through the BuffyVerse...| Holland to Lindsey: You're in a crisis, son. A crisis of faith. from Blind Date (Season 1) | Next Clip in Episode |
(A guard drags Lee's body out by his feet, leaving a dark smear on the carpet.)
HOLLAND: What a pity. You can't get that out of the carpet. Believe me, we've tried. Are you afraid? (Lindsey nods slightly) Well, that's understandable. You betrayed this firm by allaying yourself with someone who has given us a great deal of grief. You've stolen important documents form our vault. Tried to sabotaged an extremely important case. And in the course of this egregious behavior, you lied to us -- more importantly, to me. Did I leave anything out?
LINDSEY: No, sir.
HOLLAND: Did you actually believe I wouldn't learn everything?
LINDSEY: I --
HOLLAND: Lindsey, this is a delicate moment. I nod to Phil behind me, and he's gonna put a bullet in your head.
LINDSEY: I didn't want to lie to you. I didn't want to betray you. I just wanted out.
HOLLAND: Hm. Well, then you're in a crisis, son. A crisis of faith. Do you believe in love? I'm not speaking romantically. I'm talking about that sharp, clear sense of self a man gains once he's truly found his place in the world. It's no mean feat, since most men are cowards and just move with the crowd. Very few make their own destinies. They have the courage of their convictions, and they know how to behave in a crisis.
LINDSEY: Like now?
HOLLAND: Like now. You have everything it takes to go all the way here -- drive, ambition, excellence -- but you don't know where you belong. And until you do, I guess we both have some important questions to answer. Now, my first one is, do I nod to my friend behind me? No, I don't. Because I know you, and I know a little something about character. I think what you actually need is a few days off to think about it. And I'm sure once you have, you're gonna do the right thing.
LINDSEY: I can -- I can go.
HOLLAND: You can go. Lindsey, I believe in you. Look deep enough inside yourself -- you'll find that love.
