come wander through the BuffyVerse...| Lorne: Why do you care so much about Darla? from The Trial (Season 2) | Next Clip in Episode |
(Darla sits on the stage at Caritas while Angel stands beside the Host at the bar.)
DARLA: (singing) Blow, ill wind, blow away. Let me rest today. You're blowing me no good...
LORNE: (watching her) Ooh!
ANGEL: What is that? What does that mean, ooh?
LORNE: It means 'ooh, ground control to major Tom', we may not be able to save this bird.
ANGEL: I'm gonna save her and you're gonna help me.
LORNE: (looks at ANGEL) I sense pain and anger. Are you still testy from the last time?
ANGEL: When you sent me to that swami who was dead, and his imposter tried to kill me? Why would I be testy about that?
LORNE: That was painful. I'm still reeling.
ANGEL: Yeah, I feel your pain, what with him trying to kill me and all.
LORNE: People try to kill *you* everyday. I'm talking about Ramone. Overheard us, betrayed me. The man was a world-class bartender. He made a Sea Breeze that took you to Tahiti. Mmm. He's off the menu now.
ANGEL: Can we get back to Darla?
LORNE: If you shush up and listen to the bridge.
DARLA: (singing) You're only misleading the sunshine I'm needing. Ain't that a shame? It's so hard to keep up with troubles that creep up from out of nowhere when love...
ANGEL: (noticing Lorne watching him) Aren't you supposed to be reading her?
LORNE: I'm a channel surfer. Look, you're a big hunk of hero sandwich. You wanna save the girl. I can see why. But you're missing the crucial point here. Things fall apart. Not everything can be put back together, no matter how much you want it.
ANGEL: She's not gonna die.
LORNE: Why do you care so much? She had more than most of us, already 400 plus years.
ANGEL: As a vampire. Before that she was... She... She never had a chance.
DARLA: (finishes her song) No good.
(Applause.)
LORNE: Someone get my heart. That girl's ripped it right out. - Okay, I know I'm probably going to regret this. In fact, being prescient, I'm actually sure of it. There is one way. It-it's a bit of a quest - and - it'll probably kill you.
ANGEL: I'll take it.
LORNE: (writes down an address) Alright, big fella, you asked for it. You're about to face the hell and the high water. - Go to this address.
ANGEL: What is it?
LORNE: It's where we find out if you're really ready to take the plunge.
