Doc: let me know how it goes. from Forever (Season 5) | Next Clip in Episode |
(Doc's shop. Spike & Dawn enter.)
DAWN: This place belongs to a magic guy? Smells like grandpa.
SPIKE: Hey! Anybody home?
Doc: I know you.
SPIKE: Don't think so, mate.
Doc: No, no, you're that guy, that guy hangs around down at the corner mart. Big into dominoes, aren't you?
SPIKE: Can't say as I am. Look, we came here because...
Doc: That's crazy, isn't it! I mean I'd swear you were that guy. I mean your hair's a different color and you're a vampire. But other than that...
DAWN: Maybe we should just go...
Doc: No, just because the lights are dim doesn't mean the juice is all gone. What can I do for you?
SPIKE: This one's mum kicked it a few days back.
Doc: Oh, I'm so sorry!
SPIKE: And we were wondering what's to be done about it. Heard you were the one to ask.
Doc: Oh, No, that's, uh, you don't want to mess with that. I know some tonics, make the greiving fly by.
DAWN: I don't want any tonics.
Doc: Either one of you witches? Got any experience with spells of this magnitude? Didn't think so.
DAWN: Ow!
Doc: You're mother's a good candidate at least, strong DNA.
DAWN: Right. I gathered some ingredients, but the spell I found... there's things in it I don't understand.
Doc: We've got the Gora demon standing between you & success. That's the translation you were missing.
SPIKE: Gora? I've heard of those. They local?
Doc: Yeah, they like to stick close to the hellmouth. 'Egg of the Gora gives life'. It's key to the spell.
DAWN: Can we buy it, this egg, or...
Doc: If it was easy as making an omlette, everyone would try it. No. You have to steal the egg from the nest of the demon. And the Gora won't be happy about it.
SPIKE: Where do we find this demon?
Doc: First thing's first. We'll need an image of your mother. A photo, a painting.
DAWN: No problem.
Doc: Once you get all the ingredients together, but them in the center of a sacred circle, with the photo of your mother. Than, say this incantation 3 times. She won't appear, poof, it will take a while. But she will come to you. Got it?
DAWN: Got it.
Doc: Oh, anything goes wrong, the only way to reverse the spell is to destroy the image of your mother, understand?
DAWN: I'll do it right.
Doc: It's a tricky spell, girl. I can't say for sure your mother will come back exactly like she was. Sometimes these things get a little off.
DAWN: But she'll still be mother, won't she?
Doc: More or less.
DAWN: Good. Good.
SPIKE: And the Gora?
Doc: Oh right, sorry. Go in the sewer entrance near Tracy street. The openings on the left, you can't miss it, just follow that down. No no, keep your money.
DAWN: Oh. Thank you.
Doc: You just keep in touch now. Let me know how it goes.
DAWN: I will.
