CORDELIA: I can't believe this loser look. I lobbied so hard for the teal. No one ever listens to me. A lone fashionable wolf.

CORDELIA: Excuse me?

XANDER: I'm telling you. I woke up the other day with this feeling in my gut. I just know there's no way I'm getting out of this school alive.

CORDELIA: Wow, you've really mastered the power of positive giving-up.
