Okay, I'm still tryin' to get this family tree straight. Darla sired Angel.
And Angel sired this Drusilla.
Back when he and Darla were together, yes.
But, before Angel got his soul back, right?
Now these lawyers, they brought Darla back as human. Now this Drusilla vamp goes and bites Darla?
Making her a vampire again.
That's the cosmological upshot, yes. Darla's human self has died, and some time before dawn, unless Angel can stop it, she will rise again, a soulless demon.
No, no, what I'm sayin' is, that means the granddaughter remade the grandmother.
Man, somehow that weirds me out more than the whole blood-suckin' thing.
[Darla and Dru are heading down a crowed sidewalk with Darla tossing Dru around.]
DDru
Did I do something to displease you?
[Darla tosses Dru on the sidewalk. A guy tries to help Dru up, but Darla tosses him aside, then grabs a hold of Dru and tosses her over a parked car onto the road. Dru stands up, only to get hit by a honking car. Dru rolls down the street a ways and a blonde woman gets out of the car and hurries towards her as Dru slowly gets back up. The woman takes one look at Dru and runs off as Darla comes and slams Dru down on the hood of the car.]
[Darla hits her, making her stumble into the path of another car that manages to swerve around her, tires screeching. Darla grabs a hold of Dru again.]
[Darla slams her up against the side of the car.]
DDru
For you. All for you. I thought it was what you wanted. To be saved.
[Darla looks at Dru and slowly takes a step back, letting her hands drop from Dru's shoulders.]
DDru
[in tears] All alone. All alone in the dirt. We've lost our way and the little worm won't dance if he's told to. [Starts to sob.] No. No.
[Darla pushes Dru's hair out of her face, then slowly takes her in her arms to comfort her, softly stroking her hair and letting Dru cry. A man gets out of his pickup.]
MMan
You two wanna move it out of the street?
[Dru and Darla turn to look at him, pulling slightly apart.]
MMan
Yeah, that's right, sweetheart. Why don't you and your girlfriend take the make-out session on home.
[Darla walks up to him.]
MMan
The rest of us have lives.
[Darla looks him up and down, shakes her head and vamps.]
[She grabs him and feeds, drops him to the ground and turns back to Dru with a smile, back in human face.]
DDru
You're all new again.
[Dru touches Darla's nose.]
[She takes a hold of Dru's hand and the two of them walk off down the road, giggling.]
I can crush the life out of you before they even lift a finger.
Oh, I'm sure you can. Just as sure as I am that you won't.
You don't qualify. You set things in motion, play your little games up here in your glass and chrome tower, and people die. Innocent people.
And yet I just can't seem to care. But you do. And while you're making threats, wasting time, crashing through windows, your girls are out painting the town red, red, red.
That was very thoughtful of you.
[Darla steps up close to Holland]
You brought me back as human, a dying one at that, let me wallow with a soul, then sent me crawling back to Angel, begging him to restore me.
Which he should have done right away. But I miscalculated, I - I thought he cared more than he did.
[Darla giggles.]
Grandmum won't eat [lifts both hands up besides her head and opens and closes them a couple of times] the double speak."
No. No, she won't eat that.
I hear the sirens. They don't know if the world will be there in the morning.
Do you hear the sirens? Are-are the police coming?
[Shakes his head.] No. She senses what this place was built for.
Ah, yes. Drusilla, you're quite right. This was originally a bomb shelter in the fifties. We had it converted. Wine has always been my passion.
[Darla giggles.]
People huddled together, crouching in fear.
Yes, yes. I imagine that's what it would have been like in a war.
Aha. [chuckles] I guess I stepped into that one. Listen Darla, I am sorry that you had to suffer, but look at what's come out of it. You've been restored. You're a superior being. You can have anything you want. And there's not a person in this room who won't work round the clock to see that you get it.
Gung ho, are they? Because all I'm sensing right now is big, stinky, fear. [smiles in Holland's face, then turns to Lindsey] But not from you. [walks over to him] Do you know what I'm getting from you, Lindsey? [leans in close to his neck as if to bite him, then pulls back] Nothing. Why aren't you afraid?
You could die here. Chances are you will.
I care. I guess I just don't mind.
No one's going to die here. This is just a friendly get-together amongst colleagues. [Dru is dancing around Holland's back] We're all on the same side.
I love this room. Dru, honey, in our new digs we have to put in a people cellar.
[Holland smiles, but the smile fades quickly.]
[Angel arrives as Darla and Drusilla prepare to massacre a Wolfram & Hart office party]
Angelus- here for the tasting?
Look what we have for you. Oh- it's not Daddy. It's never Daddy. It's the Angel-beast.
Yeah, yeah. [lifts her hands as if they were tied above her head] Spank us till Tuesday. [growls] We promise to be bad if you do.
[to Darla] I'm sorry I didn't get to you in time.
[caressing the side of her face] He's soul-sick. Not even thinking about his own family. [pulls one of the men over by his hair] Only thinking about them.
Come on, love. I never did get that good-bye kiss.
You will. But not tonight.
Angel, please. People are going to die.
And yet, somehow, I just can't seem to care.
[Holland watches wide-eyed as Angel shuts the double doors on them; Darla turns to caress Holland with a big smile on her face]
Angel? P-please we can negotiate. We...
[Angel slides the lock on the door shut]
[Lindsey has a slight smile creasing his face. Darla pulls Holland down and bites him. Angel unhurriedly walks up the steps from the cellar, ignoring the screams and sounds of fighting coming from the cellar.]
And you just walked away?
No, I walked to my car and then I drove away.
You allowed Darla and Drusilla to have free reign.
I didn't bring either one of them into this. They did.
You could have stopped them.
When? After they've finished off all the people you don't like?
Angel, while it's certainly true that these lawyers brought this on themselves, what you did is...
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.
You have to change the way you've been doing things. Don't you see where this is taking you?
Listen to her! Right now the three of us are all that's standing between you and real darkness.
[Angel gets up and walks away while the other three sit there like frozen statues.]
