[singing] If you go into the woods tonight, you won't believe your eyes. If you go into the woods tonight, you're in for a big surprise...

Lines by Angelus 8
Ooh, yeah, let's talk about Cordy. Now there's a rack to write home about. Too bad about that personality, though... yap, yap, yap...
Look at yourself, Lilah. All these years, wanting to see me. You couldn't run a comb through your hair, maybe slap on a little lipstick? Evil doesn't have to mean sloppy.
Ugh, crap. You mean killing the beast really does bring back the sun? Thought that was Angel's retarded fantasy. Oh well, what are you gonna do? Take the bad with the good, I always say. Anyhow, I just wanted beasty boy here to soften you up. I like mine nice and tender.
Rah rah! Good over evil! Do what must be done! Hang in there, kitten, it's almost Friday!
Uh-oh! Vampire with a gun!
[mocking] Doc,I think we're losing him. God, I love this episode!
Yeah like those Manilow concerts [throws Angel down the ally] son of a bitch!
Scenes with Angelus 32
Strange. Somehow you seemed taller when I was alive.
Lord, bind this demon now.
To think I ever let such a tiny, trembling thing make me feel the way you did.
[crosses himself] Deliver me under thy protection, Father.
You told me I wasn't a man. You told me I was nothing. And I believed you. You said I'd never amount to anything. You were wrong. [vamps] You see, Father. I have made something of myself after all.
This contest is ended, is it.
Now I've won.
Are you sure?
Of course. I proved who had the power here.
You think?
[stands] What?
Your victory over him took but moments.
[looks back at his dead father] Yes?
But his defeat of you will last lifetimes.
What are you talking about? He can't defeat me now.
Nor can he ever approve of you, in this world, or any other. What we once were informs all that we have become. The same love will infect our hearts, even if they no longer beat. Simple death won't change that.
Love. [looks around at his dead family] Is this the work of love?
Darling boy. So young, still so very young.
Angel?
Oh, what's the matter? Look a little nervous.
You, you're...
Free! [Picks up his drink and drains it.] You freed me. Mmm. [Sticks a finger in the glass and licks the last of it off his finger.] Oh, God. I love this stuff! Wow! [Breaks the glass on a ceiling beam.] Remind me to get the name of your dealer before I kill you.
Kill me?
[Angel twirls the broken glass in his hand.]
In all my years, I've never killed a famous person before. But with no witnesses who's gonna believe me? Maybe we can take a picture. I know! We do it like we did back in the day. I'll keep your head on a stick as proof.
My head on a stick?
Well okay... [throws the glass over his shoulder and listens to it break]... pike.
You're just trying to scare me.
Is it working?
No.
[Angelus tosses her across the room and she lands on the stairs to the sewer entrance.]
How about now?
You're crazy.
Oh, no. I'm a vampire. Boy, you know, you could stand to drop a few pounds. Hey, I help you with that.
This isn't you.
They always mistake me for the character I play. They never see the real me!
I'm... I just wanted to...
Be like me? Believe me, I'm one happy fellow. Tell you what, I'll torture you for a few unbelievably long hours and then you can tell me if this is the lifestyle for you. It's up to you.
Well, oh, why don't you juss-ss...
Juss-s? Line? 'Of course a time will come when Torvald is not as devoted to me'. You were really, let me tell you, bad.
Stop it.
Why? You didn't. I mean, I've been to hell but *that* was so much worse! [To Rebecca] You had to be there. I mean, there wasn't a dry eye in the house, everybody was just laughing so hard. [To Cordelia] Here's a thought. Maybe you can get Raven here to coach you, then you'd actually suck!
[Borsa, Romania 1898. Darla follows a blindfolded Angelus into a house.]
Can I take off this blindfold yet?
No.
[grabs Darla around the waist] Can I take off something else?
After I give you your present. [They kiss] You can never have enough of those. Come on.
[She leads him into another room, then takes his blindfold off. A gagged girl lies in front of a fireplace.]
Happy birthday, Angelus.
She is a gypsy.
I looked everywhere.
What would I do without you?
Wither and die. [They kiss] She is not just for you. I get to watch.
[Angelus goes and leans down over the girl. He pushes her skirt up while she squirms, then vamps out and bites her thigh while Darla watches.]
Black sky. It wants a little wormy me.
[Angelus and Darla break apart and look over at a sobbing Dru.]
No. No. Make it stop!
What is she doing here? I thought you killed her.
No. Just her family.
[He pushes Darla down on the floor and rolls on top of her.]
Eyes like arrows - like-like needles.
This one's special. I have big plans for her.
[He leans down to kiss Darla.]
Snake in the woodshed. Snake in the woodshed. Snake in the woodshed! Snake in the woodshed!
[Darla rolls them over so she's now on top.]
So are we going to kill her during, or after?
Neither. We turn her into one of us. - Killing is so merciful at the end, isn't it? The pain has ended.
But to make her one of us? She's a lunatic.
Eternal torment. [Grabs a hold of Darla's arms and rolls them so he is back on top with her under him on the floor.] Am I learning?
[Angelus starts to kiss Darla while Dru first laughs then cries.]
[talking about Angelus] Angelus? The Latinate for "Angel". It's marvelous!
His name would already be a legend in his home village - had he left anyone alive there to tell the tale.
[caressing Darla's hand] Ah, you had a nice trip. I'm so glad.
On the way back we cut a bloody swath through South Wales and northern England. He was magnificent.
Hmm, Yorkshire men - tough as leather. [The Master and Angelus both laugh at that remark] So, Darla here tells me you're some sort of Master.
The Master. He commands our order."
The order of Aurelius. We are the select - the elite.
[Angelus folds his arms and surveys their surroundings.]
And you live in the sewers, do you?
[The Master gives Darla's hand a pat and stands up.]
We live below, giving tribute to the old ones. Awaiting that promised day when we will arise -A rise! - and lay waste to the world above us.
[The Master laughs.]
Why'd you want to do that?
Huh?
Well, I mean, have you been above lately? It's quite nice. Me - I could never live in a rat infested stink hole - like this, if you'll pardon me for saying so. I got to have meself a proper bed or I'm a terror. [To Darla] Isn't that right love?
He's young.
And this one, down in the goose feathers, and the finest silks and linens and a view... [Angelus comes around to Darla] ...she's always got to have the view... [leans in close to her] ...don't you, my lamb?.
We fed very recently. The blood is still hot in his veins.
You noticed that, did you?
We stalk the surface to feed and grow our ranks. We do not live amongst the human pestilence!
I'll be honest, you really couldn't with that face, now could you?
Angelus!
[Angelus laughs and drops into the Masters chair, left leg dangling over one of the armrests and takes a bit of snuff.]
It's not stuck like that now is it?
[The Master leans in on him with a growl.]
The Master has grown past the curse of human features.
I'm not gonna get a bat-nose like that, huh? Am I?
Very few vampires are cunning enough to have lived as long as I have - which you've now... [The Master grabs Angelus by the front of his coat and throws him across the room) ...demonstrated.
[Darla flinches as Angelus slides down the wall. Laughing, he gets back up, and keeps talking to Darla as if the Master wasn't even there.]
Naples, you and me Darla. What do you say?
[The Master hits him with a hard right throwing him back against the wall.]
Angelus...
[Angelus just pushes himself off the wall and goes on as if nothing had happened]
This is no place for you - bound to the likes of him.
You should show... [Master hits Angelus over the head, dropping him to the ground] ...the proper respect.
[Angelus, now on all fours and breathing hard, still ignores the Master and talks only to Darla.]
You belong by my side, out in the world, feeding as we like,taking what we need. I'll give you that view you crave, darling. I'll give you everything.
[The Master knocks Angelus over onto his back. Angelus coughs, then laughs again. Lifts his head to look at Darla.]
[to Darla] Tell the truth - whose face do you want to look at for eternity? His, or mine?
You idiot. I made her.
[To the Master's shock, Darla goes to Angelus and helps her lover to his feet.]
You're leaving with the stallion, aren't you?
[One of the Master's minions tries to block their path, but the Master waves them off and lets the couple leave the hall.]
No. Let them go. He won't last. I give it a century, tops.
