CORDELIA: You need to talk to Fred.

ANGEL: What about?

CORDELIA: About the big date you guys had last night.

ANGEL: Woah! Date? It was just a movie.

CORDELIA: That's what you need to tell *her*. She's in there going on and on about what a super time you guys had.

ANGEL: She's just enthusiastic. Don't read too much into it.

CORDELIA: She's got the big puppy love. I mean, who wouldn't? You're handsome, and brave, and heroic, emotionally stunted, erratic, prone to turning evil and, lets face it, a eunuch.

ANGEL: Hey, how can you... I'm not a eunuch.

CORDELIA: Angel, it's just a figure of speech.

ANGEL: Find a better one.

CORDELIA: I just mean that sex is a no-no for you. Because of this whole 'if you know perfect bliss you'll turn evil' curse. Really no cure for that, huh? - Listen, all I'm trying to tell you is, this thing with Fred, it's going to go bad unless it's nipped in the bud.

ANGEL: Okay. Maybe just a short talk. So how soon can you do that?

CORDELIA: Nice try. It's gotta come from you.

(She takes a hold of Angel and pulls him up out of his chair and into Wes' office.)

CORDELIA: Angel has something to say.

ANGEL: Hey, did anybody else see this?

(he Lays his news paper down in front of Wes)

ANGEL: Police found the body of a twenty-six year old Woodrow Raglan in a two-bedroom suite at the Elondria Hotel. Unnamed witness said it was as if his insides had just...

WESLEY: ...collapsed. You know, there was something else like that - last week.

CORDELIA: Uhm, may I just point out that no one is actually hiring us to look into this and that we should be doing more important things?

WESLEY: Here. Ten days ago, a body found in another hotel room under similar conditions.

ANGEL: What do you think? Spell, curse, serial demon?

WESLEY: Though to say. Worth a closer look.

ANGEL: I'll say. Cordelia, open up a case file. We have to get on this right away.

(Angel hands Cordy the file with the newspaper clipping as he walks past her out of the office.)

CORDELIA: Angel!
