You play golf? Since--what?
All part of the mojo the big boys installed. Half the cases that cross our desk are settled out on the links before they ever make it to trial.
Nine holes instead of a jury of your peers. Just what the founding fathers had in mind.
A lawyer? I already told the police everything I know.
Well, let's go over it again, just in case you left out any details.
What he said. But with a bit more of a threat at the end.
[Angel shows up just in time to see Spike being thrown from a window]
What happened?
Oh, I just thought I'd see what it was like to bounce off the pavement. Pretty much what I expected.
Mr. Giles and a few key Sunnydale alum have been tracking down the recently chosen, guiding them, training them, giving them the full X-Men, minus the crappy third act. But this Dana girl, she's an anomaly that no one could have foreseen. Tortured, traumatized, driven insane by Yoda knows who.
A psychotic vampire slayer.
How many times you gonna keep sayin' that?
Just tryin' to wrap my lobes around it. A psycho slayer.
[Angel and Spike enter the office where Andrew and the gang are.]
Spike?
[sees Andrew] Oh, for the love of...
Spike? It's you. It's really you! [hugs Spike, sobbing] My therapist thought I was holding onto false hope, but... I knew you'd come back. [sniffles, releases Spike from the hug to look him in the eyes] You're like... you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, [touches his palms to Spike's face] more beautiful than ever. [hugs Spike tightly around the neck] Ohh... he's alive, Frodo. He's alive.
[smirking] You two know each other?
[steps back from Spike, sniffles, straightens his lapels] Uh, yeah. Um... We--we saved the world together. I mean, Buffy helped, but... it was mostly us.
Andrew double-crossed us? [pause] That's a good move. [chuckles] Hope for the little ponce yet.
[about Dana] The tingling in my forearms tells me she's too far gone to help. She's... one of us now. She's a monster.
She's an innocent victim.
So were we... once upon a time.
[understanding] Once upon a time.
