Lilah to Wes: I went to a lot of trouble to arrange this little show for you. from Benediction (Season 3) | Next Clip in Episode |
(While Wes dines on a frozen microwave dinner, a message arrives on his computer: '782 W. Palm Terrace. 8:30 p.m. Come alone.')
(...)
LILAH: I see you got my invitation.
WESLEY: Lilah. Obviously.
LILAH: I thought the 'come alone' was a particularly ironic touch. I mean, how else would you come?
(Wes starts to walk past her, but Lilah holds out a hand to stop him.)
LILAH: Don't rush off. Just look over there.
(Wes looks and sees Justine sitting at the bar.)
LILAH: I went to a lot of trouble to arrange this little show for you.
WESLEY: Good bye.
(Wes starts to walk away.)
LILAH: Okay, but leave now and you'll miss her big death scene. Don't tell me you wouldn't like to see the bitch that slit your throat and left you to die get a little of her own back.
WESLEY: What's going on here, Lilah?
LILAH: Some source - can't imagine who - tipped her off that tonight this place would be filthy with vampires. Which, as it turns out, is true.
WESLEY: Right. Because that same source tipped off the vampires that *she* would be here.
LILAH: Seems she has been pissing off a lot of undead Americans lately.
WESLEY: And you thought I'd enjoy a box seat for her slaughter.
LILAH: Well - yeah.
WESLEY: You really don't know the first thing about me, do you?
LILAH: Probably not.
(Wes turns to walk off and Lilah steps up close to him.)
LILAH: Like, will he go straight to his car, or will he stop to warn her first?
(Wes stops, but doesn't turn or speak.)
LILAH: He has to think about it. That's good. That's all I really needed to know. You can go.
WESLEY: A *test* Lilah?
LILAH: Oh, don't look so grim. I just needed to know whether or not I was wasting my time. And to prove we're still friends, I'll have her pulled out of there before anything *really* lethal happens. That way you don't have to torture yourself as to whether or not you did the right thing.
WESLEY: (spotting Angel) I don't think that will be necessary.
