LORNE: (to customer) I'm awfully sorry. I wish there was something I could do, really. Next?

MAN IN LOBBY: I'm too late, aren't I? For a room?

LORNE: Yeah, 'fraid so, Buckaroo. Singles, suites, even the mouse holes are triple-booked. I got pilgrims pitching pup-tents in the parking lot. Try saying that three times fast and you'll get a sense of the day I'm having.

MAN IN LOBBY: I'll give you my house if I can stay. It's nice. There's a pool.

LORNE: Sorry, it doesn't work that way around here, partner. Jasmine doesn't want your things, and neither do I.

MAN IN LOBBY: I just want to be near her, you know. Saw her on the news last night. And I wanted to say thanks for making me feel— (breaks down into tears)

LORNE: Hey, preaching to the choir. I thought Our Lady of the Perpetual Sea Breeze was the real deal until the Divine Miss J walked right through that door and right into my ass—which is where my heart is...physiologically. I could show you an x-ray.

(The crowd oohs and ahs as Jasmine enters the room. Angel and Connor are with her.)

LORNE: Hey, don't be shy, Slim Jim. Go get some of that gorgeous goodness.

JASMINE: Hello, and thank you all for coming. (speaking in Chinese to a pregant woman) Your child will lead a healthy and loving life.

WOMAN: Ohhh... (pleased, she bows respectfully repeatedly)

ANGEL: How do you do that?

JASMINE: Mandarin's not so tough when you've been around a zillion years.

ANGEL: No, I mean, how is it that you always know exactly what each person needs to hear.

JASMINE: Just look into their hearts. And sometimes, it's right on their face. (walks up to a mustached man in the lobby) Señor...

MEXICAN MAN: Si?

JASMINE: (speaking Spanish) Tu bigote te da fuerca y dignida. SUBTITLE: Your moustache provides you great strength and dignity.

MEXICAN MAN: (smiles broadly) Gracias. Muchas gracias.

CONNOR: I wish I could see what you see.

JASMINE: (to Connor) You will. (to others in the lobby) Hello. My love is all around you.

ANGEL: (sees Wes and Gunn return, to Jasmine) Will you excuse us for a moment?
