come wander through the BuffyVerse...| Angel: Darla's right. We were amateurs compared to Wolfram & Hart. from The Trial (Season 2) | Next Clip in Episode |
(Hyperion, at night. Cordy hears someone open the doors and turns to Wesley, who's reading a newspaper.)
CORDELIA: (in a whisper) Angel's back and he has *Darla* with him!
(Wesley and Cordy walk around the counter to confront Angel and Darla.)
CORDELIA: Hi. (Sees the bag Darla is carrying) You're - planning on sleeping over?
DARLA: (puts down the bag) I'm dying.
CORDELIA: So just for the one night then.
WESLEY: Dying?
DARLA: He doesn't believe it.
WESLEY: Angel, what's going on?
ANGEL: Wolfram and Hart showed her some medical files supposedly proving that she's only got a few months left to live.
CORDELIA: So maybe *more* than the one night.
WESLEY: And you believe it's some kind of trick.
ANGEL: We're talking about Wolfram and Hart! Of course it's a trick. They're trying to play some kind of mind game.
WESLEY: To what end?
ANGEL: I don't know, but we're not gonna take the bait.
DARLA: No, you just don't wanna believe it, that's all.
ANGEL: I don't wanna believe anything from them.
WESLEY: It's true. They can't really be trusted.
DARLA: I don't trust them, but I know a thing or two about mind games. (To Angel) So do you. We played them together for over a century.
CORDELIA: Yes, but you were just soulless bloodsucking demons, they're lawyers.
ANGEL: She's right. We were amateurs.
DARLA: And if you're wrong?
ANGEL: (after a beat) I'm not. And I'm gonna prove it to you. (to Wes and Cordy) Can you guys just watch over her for a while? I'll be back soon.
WESLEY: Of course.
CORDELIA: Don't worry about a thing.
ANGEL: Thanks.
DARLA: You can't force me to stay here.
ANGEL: You're not a prisoner.
DARLA: I've been hearing that a lot lately.
ANGEL: Just give me a chance. - Okay?
(After a moment Angel turns and leaves.)
CORDELIA: So, first up - you're a prisoner.
WESLEY: I'd have to concur with that, yes.
CORDELIA: See, you've got our friend - all - in knots.
WESLEY: Can't say we like you much.
CORDELIA: So, sorry about the dying, but if you try to escape - we *will* hit you.
WESLEY: On the head.
CORDELIA: With very large and heavy objects. - Okay?
