Wesley: even a solitary soldier, such as myself, recognizes that a free exchange of intelligence benefits the common struggle from Somnambulist (Season 1) | Next Clip in Episode |
CORDELIA: It�s the city of dreams, a mystical oasis, built from the dessert. But even sunny blond LA has its trashy dark roots, and you�ve learned that the hard way, haven�t you? You�ve taken your problem to the police, they can�t help you, so you�ve come to us.
WESLEY: (entering) I think it�s about to speak.
CORDELIA: Nobody likes a smart-ass rogue demon hunter. What do you want, Wesley?
WESLEY: Just thought I�d pop round so we might compare battle plans from our respective fronts.
CORDELIA: (mocking) Oh, I thought you worked alone?
WESLEY: Well, even a solitary soldier, such as myself, recognizes that a free exchange of intelligence benefits the common struggle. - Also, I brought in your mail and newspaper.
CORDELIA: Oh, thanks. So what have you got?
WESLEY: Got?
CORDELIA: You wanted to compare skinnies on the current �evil happenings�.
WESLEY: Yes. Skinnies. Precisely. - Uh, right, well... Everything *seems* quiet.
CORDELIA: Okay. Well... thanks for stopping by.
WESLEY: And you? - How go things on your end of the good fight?
CORDELIA: I�ve been giving the hard sell to an empty chair. What do you think?
WESLEY: Quiet all around then. Well, I�ll keep myself available. The situation can only escalate. We made a most effective team, I felt. Vanquishing that empathy demon in such short order.
CORDELIA: Yeah, well, nobody gauged out my eyes, so I�m happy.
WESLEY: Yes, most effective. Your cryptic visions, Angel�s brawn, my *highly* developed powers of deduction rounding out...
CORDELIA: This isn�t our mail.
WESLEY: Sorry?
CORDELIA: See here? The dentist office - next door.
WESLEY: Oh, I see. I didn�t... realize...
CORDELIA: Something wrong? You stopped yammering.
WESLEY: I, ah, I suppose I should return these items to their proper owner.
(Wes exits, Angel enters)
ANGEL: Who were you talking to?
CORDELIA: Nobody. And Wesley. Uhm, so, you remember that license plate we got on that runaway case?
ANGEL: I remember you were going to follow up on it.
CORDELIA: No go. The DMV is totally stalker-phobic. And wow! You look half-dead. Which for someone, who�s completely dead, would be - kind of neat?
ANGEL: License plate, Cordelia.
CORDELIA: Right. I thought maybe you could have police woman run it for us on the Q.T.?
ANGEL: Kate.
CORDELIA: Are you sure you�re okay? I mean for a guy who�s 200 plus, you�re not usually... with the bags.
ANGEL: I�ll do this now.
CORDELIA: Hey...
ANGEL: (irritated) Look, I�m fine Cordelia. All right?
CORDELIA: All right.
(Angel walks out the door and right into a patch of sunlight. Jerks back, hissing with pain and turns back into the office.)
ANGEL: I�ll take the tunnels.
