Cordelia Chase quotes from Angel

Wesley

And you just walked away?

Angel

No, I walked to my car and then I drove away.

Gunn

You didn't do anything?

Wesley

You allowed Darla and Drusilla to have free reign.

Angel

I didn't bring either one of them into this. They did.

Wesley

You could have stopped them.

Angel

And I will.

Cordelia

When? After they've finished off all the people you don't like?

Wesley

Angel, while it's certainly true that these lawyers brought this on themselves, what you did is...

Cordelia

...is wrong.

Gunn

You went too far.

Wesley

We've all been worried about you, and I guess it's fair to say we all share some of the blame. We should have spoken up sooner.

Gunn

And louder.

Cordelia

You have to change the way you've been doing things. Don't you see where this is taking you?

Wesley

Listen to her! Right now the three of us are all that's standing between you and real darkness.

Gunn

Best believe that, man.

Angel

I do. You're all fired.

Cordelia

What just happened? Can someone explain to me what just happened here?

Wesley

I believe we were fired.

Gunn

Canned.

Wesley

Let go.

Gunn

Axed.

Wesley

Shown the door.

Gunn

Booted.

Cordelia

All right! I get it. But... what just... happened?

Gunn

Hey, I got a rep to maintain, all right? I can't have y'all seeing through my brusque and macho exterior.

Cordelia

Oh, heavens forbid!

Wesley

Well, how is the man supposed to run a business if his employees won't follow directives?

Gunn

Well, was one of his directives, "Hire pansy-ass British guys"?

Wesley

My arse is not pansy.

Wesley

Hypocrite!

Cordelia

Ass-pansy!

Cordelia

One thing you can say about Angel: at least he's consistent! It's always some little blonde driving him over the edge! [sighs] What are we supposed to do now?

Gunn

I think I'll grab a burrito before I head home. [Wesley and Cordelia stare at him.] What?

Wesley

No, no, by all means, if you're hungry.

Gunn

Hey, this was just a side gig for me, all right? The extra cash was nice while it lasted but - [shrugs] Angel wants to go all commando? No skin off my nose.

Cordelia

Well my nose skin is angry. And hurt. And ...

Wesley

... disappointed?

Virginia

[entering with a basket] Hey, Wow! This place is great. I brought champagne. You guys must be so excited... [takes in their looks] in that really dry, suicidal way.

Wesley

[kisses her] Sorry, sweetheart. You just caught us in a moment of ... well ...

Cordelia

Reality.

Virginia

Oh, that. I avoid that.

Gunn

How do you avoid reality?

Virginia

Money. It cures everything but boredom. [holds up basket] And food cures boredom, so there you go. Imported chips and packets of cheese.

Gunn

Thanks.

Wesley

We'll enjoy them huddled around our pathetic candles.

Cordelia

We'll make pathetic nachos.

Virginia

You guys are really down.

Gunn

Yeah. And don't try to tell us there's no way to go but up, 'cause the truth is, there's always more down.

Cordelia

I don't even know what you are anymore.

Angel

I'm a vampire. Look it up!

Wesley

Well, I'm unaware of any red bird statuary in downtown Los Angeles, so unless you are I suggest.. [Harmony pops another bubble] *someone* put a *stake* through that woman's heart if she persists in popping her bloody chewing gum!

Cordelia

Harmony, do me a favor, lose the gum.

Harmony

Okay, okay! Sorry. I thought it would help with the cravings.

Harmony

I mean, you'd think I'd get a thank you for not biting any of you.

Wesley

*What* are you doing!?! This book is twelve centuries old!

Harmony

Okay. So it's not like I messed up a new one.

Willow

Okay, we are clear on the fact that Harmony's a vampire, right?

Cordelia

Ohhh! Harmony's a vampire! That's why she- Oh my God, I'm so embarrassed. All this time I thought she was a great big lesbo. [Pauses, most likely listening to Willow's news that she is in a relationship with a girl] Oh... good for you then.

Cordelia

Come on, Harm.

Wesley

Such a fitting nickname.

Wesley

Time and space. Those are the only solutions in a situation like this. And as long as we understand that, the healing process...

Cordelia

Oh my God! These are gorgeous! You have the most amazing taste, like a gay man's taste and thats saying a lot. I love them so much! [hugs and kisses Angel] Thank you, thank you, you're the best. I have to go try these on. La la la! [Jumping with happiness] New clothes. I have new clothes.

Angel

[To an annoyed Wesley] I got her new clothes.

Gunn

We're at a dead end.

Wesley

I thought we had more than that.

Angel

There's only one thing we can do now.

Cordelia

Oh, God. Oh no.

Wesley

The karaoke bar.

Gunn

Angel's gonna sing?

Cordelia

Isn't there some other way?

Wesley

There has to be. Think, dammit!

Angel

Hey! Wha ...

Lindsey

Look, I need help.

Angel

I'll say. You might want to start with his singing. [Laughs.]

Cordelia

Hi. You probably don't remember me. Cordelia. I know you're evil - and everything, but that was just so amazing.

Gunn

That was kind of tight.

Wesley

Terrific, really.

Angel

Is everyone drunk?

Cordelia

How was the big fight? All big and fighty?

Wesley

We managed to kill the Haklar just as it was about to devour a group of power walkers.

Angel

It was horrible.

Cordelia

I know. I saw it in my stupid vision, remember?

Angel

No, not the Haklar, the power walkers. I mean, walking I get, but power walking? Why not just run for a shorter time?

Angel

Weird. Plus, one of them hit him. (Points to Wesley, whose forehead is injured.)

Cordelia

(gasps) A power walker did that?

Wesley

Apparently, she felt I'd disrespected the Haklar's culture by killing it.

Cordelia

This town sucks.

Cordelia

Stop! I love him!

Angel

You love me?

Cordelia

Not you, dumb-ass! Him!

Angel

[quietly] I mean, as a friend, and co-worker...
