Lindsey to Lilah: You really think that a few last minute dark rites and rituals are gonna make a difference now? from Reprise (Season 2) | Next Clip in Episode |
LILAH: Lindsey, I've been looking everywhere for you. Where're you going?
LINDSEY: Lunch.
LILAH: Lunch? You really think now's the time for lunch?
LINDSEY: You mean lunch time?
LILAH: The review is in two days.
LINDSEY: I'm aware of that.
LILAH: So is everyone else. Look at them. It's like they've had the fear of... well, 'god' would probably be the wrong word.
LINDSEY: They're just running scared.
LILAH: They should be. I dug up everything I could find on the last seventy-five year review. It's all in there. (Hands Lindsey an envelope.) Makes the Christmas purge of sixty-eight look like fun old times. Nearly half of mid-management was sacked. And Lindsey, they use actual sacks.
LINDSEY: I'll read it, Lilah.
LILAH: You better, because it's not just your ass on the line. It's mine, too. We're supposed to be running this division together, remember?
LINDSEY: Right.
LILAH: I've included some suggestions on how we could plump up our portfolio before Friday.
LINDSEY: Look, either we pass the review, or we won't. You really think that a few last minute dark rites and rituals are gonna make a difference now?
LILAH: Everybody else seems to think so. I heard Henderson actually pulled her firstborn out of company daycare to offer it up to... Brown noser. My mother was right. I should have had children.
LINDSEY: We'll stand on our records. It's the only thing we've got.
LILAH: Then we're dead! Do I have to remind you of our collective screw-ups?! Two of which are still out there somewhere. - You haven't heard anything, have you? You would tell me if they contacted you.
LINDSEY: He set them on fire, Lilah. Even vampires as strong as Darla and Drusilla need time to recover from something like that.
LILAH: Well, it would be just like them to pop up now!
LINDSEY: I wouldn't worry.
LILAH: Someone's got to! We don't get a second shot at this, Lindsey. Nothing can happen between now and Friday to screw this up.
