A Psychic Umbilical Cord from Expecting (Season 1) | Next Clip in Episode |
WESLEY: (answering phone) Hello?
ANGEL: Yeah, Wesley, it's Angel.
WESLEY: Oh, Angel, thank God.
ANGEL: I found Wilson. Whatever Cordelia's carrying around inside her, he's not the father.
WESLEY: I know. It's a Hacksaw beast, an inner earth demon. Oh, this is all my fault.
ANGEL: How's that your fault?
WESLEY: Cordelia ran off. I tried to stop her. She became insanely protective when I identified the Hacksaw as the father of her - her, ah...I fear she may have gone off to rendezvous with it.
ANGEL: She has. Miliken Industrial Park in Reseda.
WESLEY: What?
ANGEL: That's where Wilson and his friends built their shrine.
WESLEY: How does Cordelia know that?
ANGEL: It's telepathically linked to its unborn. That's how it's controlling Cordelia.
WESLEY: Of course, a psychic umbilical cord. The Hacksaw's telepathic connection is what's sustaining its unborn spawn.
ANGEL: All we have to do is cut the cord.
WESLEY: We slay this demon and poof! No more evil pregnancies. Well, this *is* good news. We can end this without harming the women. (reading) Oh, just one tiny problem.
ANGEL: What's that?
WESLEY: Well, I don't wish to use the words 'impossible to kill', but fire won't kill it, decapitation won't, and it's really huge.
ANGEL: Wesley, can you shoot straight?
WESLEY: Beg pardon?
