"I realize we sacrifice a great deal of our social lives  but we have to." "Work demands it." "True." "Who's got time for love when you're out doing it with the demons?" "Didn't that come out sad and wrong?" "CORDELIA:" "Yeah." "I need to get out more." "Speaking ofn anybody talk to Fred lately?" "Not talk." "GIimpsed." "She pokes her head out of her room once in a while." "Nice girl." "Nice." "But not making the giant strides toward mental health." "She's been hibernating up there for three months." "Ever since Angel went away." "She's become quite attached to him." "Angel groupie." "I get that." "He rescued her from Pylea." "I miss Pylea." "I would think you might." "You were there a week they made you queen." "Fred was there five years." "She was a slaven a runaway." "They nearly chopped her head off." "AII those years she spent hiding out in that cave."

"Fredn you known you spent five years in a place where humans could only be slaves or fugitives." "I know that wasn't a picnic for you, but you're home now." "You're safe." "You can come out of your room." "I know it's gonna take some time." "Time?" "I have a whole treatise on that." "It seems to take a Iot of it to do just about anything these days." "ANGEL:" "Fred." "Fred." "Fredn you don't have to write absolutely everything down." "Ohn right." "Godn I should write that down." "You just need to take some small steps." "Huh?" "Like coming downstairs and hanging with us for a while." "What do you say?" "Nothing to be scared of." "You' re safe here in the hotel." "[CORDELIA SCREAMS]" "Hold that thought." "ANGEL:" "What is it?" "What do you see?" "CORDELIA:" "A bunch of vampiresn and they're crashing a party." "They' re killing people." "ANGEL:" "Where?" "CORDELIA:" "Wilson College." "Bonner Hall."

"I would need 1 0n000 to name the color of your eyes." "They' re greenn but take your time." "In factn don't." "We have a ship to catchn and Holtz may not be far behind." "You know neither poetry nor love, Angelus." "He knows other things." "Marvelously vile and ripping things." "Didn't we eat a poet in Madrid?" "Troubadour." "Everything's closed." "Pity." "I wanted to spend some of the count's gold on you." "We need it for the voyage." "The Count de Leon was a Iittle rich for my blood." "I'II be full for a week." "The fire was excessive." "Of course it was." "We burnt his villa to the ground." "We made a statement." "A statementn as inn " Here we aren Holtz." "Hunt us down. "" "Ohn who cares about Holtz?" "You would if you knew him." "He's killed scores of us." "Hunted Angelus and I across Europe." "Godn he follows us to Moroccon what then?" "The New World?" "I say we stay and fight the bastard." "Yeahn but you' re an idiot." "I don't think he's the most formidable vampire-killer in the world." ""None lives to tell the tale" and all." "You lived to tell the tale." "I heard he trapped you both in a barn and you fledn leaving him to die." "It's not true?" "It's entirely true." "She hit me with a shoveln wished me luck and rode off on our only horse." "Life's full of surprises." "Life's dull." "You're full of surprises." "When he finally did catch me in Vienna I had to pay for my sins." "Again and again." "Can you even begin to fathom the things we did?" "Course not." "You're in love." "Let's not dawdle, children." "It's so pretty." "JAMES:" "No, it's not." "James?" "Not as pretty as it's going to be when it's worn by the prettiest one of all." "I adore it." "I'II never take it off." "[JAMES LAUGHS]" "This is where love gets you." "EIisabethn you and Darla get to the ship." "We'II join you there." "[MAN SPEAKS IN FRENCH]" "Let's give them a routn what do you say?" "I'd say you're an idiotn but I'd just be repeating myself." "JAMES:" "bloody frogs!" "I broke the window, and I'II break your skulls!" "[JAMES LAUGHS]" "Seen all you have to do is stand up to them." "What are you afraid of?" "Not us." "Hope she treasures that locket." "Then what?" "ANGEL:" "Huh?" "What happened with Holtz?" "Ohn that's another story." "We got time." "I' m not sure we do." "No, because James and elisabeth had the forever love." "If he's still around and he finds out who killed her" "He'II want revenge." "If he's around and they're in love." "It was a Iong time ago." "200-plus years and she's still got the locket." "Gunn and I'II hit the streets." "See what our sources know." "Uh-huh." "See?" "We have sources now." "You're almost like real detectives." "Hey." "Just kidding." "You should probably check it out." "James really lived for that girl." "CORDELIA:" "Yeah." "We did all we could, but they were...." "He was too much for us." "Angelus." "One of our own hunting us." "It's sick." "How is it possible?" "The Angelus I knew" "He's not the same." "Gypsies cursed him with a soul 1 00 years ago or so." "He's got a business here in L.A. He kills us for money." "She's gone." "VAMP:" "It was horrible." "She was bringing you two ripe and rosy humans and he just flew out of the sky" "And you ran." "Non I fought." "Till I saw it was hopeless." "I thought you wanted to know how it happened." "Who did it." "And now I do." "You want to be alone." "No." "I want to die." "[VAMP SCREAMS]" "What?" "CORDELIA:" "What?" "What do you want to say?" "Me?" "Nothing." "What makes you think I want--?" "ANGEL:" "Because I know you." "It's really none of my business." "And that always stops you." "It is my business because we' re trying to do a job here and what affects you affects me and anywayn I don't like to see you suffer more than you have to." "I don't think you should blame yourself or feel guilty for her death." "I don't." "Good." "glad to hear it." "I didn't even know who she was when I killed her." "Not her." "Angel...." "Oh." "You want to talk about" "She was the love of your Iifen and she died." "And you weren't there when it happened." "You couldn't help her fight." "You couldn't save her." "You couldn't die with her." "This is gonna be one of those talks where I do all the talking, isn't it?" "Well, I'm not gonna pry." "It's not my style." "Okayn it's totally my style but I'm not getting anywhere right now." "But you have to tell me one thing." "You owe me this much." "What happened with Holtz?" "Where is she?" "ANGEL:" "How's your health?" "Mine's grand." "Thanks for asking." "Where is she?" "He wants Darla." "A thorn in his side." "What we did to his family." "T asty." "Especially the little ones." "Your wife, she kept repeating on us." "Of coursen you known I repeated on her a few times myself." "There are worse things than deathn Angelus." "I can keep you alive for months, years, if I've a mind to." "Nown you are going to tell me where she is." "I am going to tell you." "Who's arguing?" "I don't want to suffer needlessly." "She's with his lass." "Shut your mouthn coward!" "He's in love." "It's all very passionate." "How about I give you him and the women?" "Down at the docks." "I'II kill you!" "Kill them!" "Stop them!" "Stop themn you idiots!" "They're getting away!" "Fan out!" "ANGEL:" "I think we lost them." "I'd kill you if I didn't have to get to EIisabeth." "I'm laying here with arrows in me, saving your life." "I'II tell Darla the utter lack of concern you had for her." "Buy her a hat." "She loves hats." "Why are people always running off and leaving me?" "Am I a bad bloke?" "I don't think so." "Not once you get to know me." "I' m gonna need a doctor." "You can't go in there." "He's sloughing." "Dr." "Gregsonn I tried to tell him." "GREGSON:" "It's all rightn Sandy." "I go through this every month, just like a woman." "So I gather this is a matter of some urgency." "I need it." "It?" "The cure." "You're aware of the price?" "It's a steep one."

"Well, this is a new twist in an old snake." "Is it possible you care about someone who isn't you?" "Don't worry about her." "But if you've changedn if you're not the man who screwed Darla and couldn't care about her...." "Where did you hear...?" "Ohn you mean back in the day." "Right." "He has changed a Iot."

"We try not to say her name too much." "You loved someone?" "With all your heart?" "Yeah." "No, you didn't." "Because if you hadn you wouldn't be standing here playing games with me."

"It feels like I'm betraying her somehow." "No." "If you were a Iosern if you were a sickn obsessed vampire then you'd go to a Snod demon or whatever and get your heart cut out." "But you're not."
