Angel (1999–2004): Season 1, Episode 8 - I Will Remember You - full transcript

Cordelia: WHEN DID HE GET BACK?

Doyle: LATE LAST NIGHT. AND?

WELL, HE SEEMED FINE.

HE SAW BUFFY. HE WAS
IN SUNNYDALE FOR 3 DAYS

TRACKING HER AND THAT
THINGAMAJIGGY YOU SAW IN YOUR VISION.

[Cordelia Sighs]

WHERE'S THE CRABBY
SCOWL, THE MORBID GLOOM?

THIS JUST MEANS IT
CUT DEEPER THAN USUAL.

BATTEN DOWN THE HATCHES.
HERE COMES HURRICANE BUFFY.

DO YOU THINK? HUMPH?!

MAYBE HE'S OVER HER.



YOU HAVE SO MUCH TO
LEARN, LITTLE IRISH MAN.

OH, MY GOD!

DON'T DO IT, ANGEL!

LISTEN TO ME, MAN.
IT'S NOT WORTH IT.

IT'S NOT?

NO! YOU CAN'T LET HER
GET TO YOU LIKE THIS.

YOU'LL MEET SOMEONE ELSE.

JUST GIVE IT SOME TIME.

WHY DON'T YOU LET ME HAVE THAT?

BECAUSE I NEED IT
TO LEVEL MY DESK.

THE FLOOR'S UNEVEN.

YOU TWO THOUGHT..?

DOYLE DID. YOU KNOW HOW HE
ALWAYS JUMPS TO CONCLUSIONS.

'CAUSE YOU SAW BUFFY.



IT WASN'T A SOCIAL CALL. I
WAS THERE TO PROTECT HER.

I STAYED OUT OF SIGHT. SHE
DIDN'T EVEN KNOW I WAS THERE.

REALLY?

SO YOU AVOIDED HER?

LOOK, BUFFY WILL
ALWAYS BE A PART OF ME

AND THAT'S NEVER
GOING TO CHANGE.

BUT SHE'S HUMAN.

AND I'M... NOT.

AND THAT'S ALSO
NEVER GONNA CHANGE.

LOOK, WE SAID OUR GOOD-BYES.

NO NEED TO STIR
ANY OF THIS UP AGAIN.

YOU DON'T WANT TO "STIR,"
BUT IF MY EX CAME TO TOWN

AND WAS ALL STALKING
ME IN THE SHADOWS

AND THEN LEFT AND HE
DIDN'T EVEN SAY HELLO,

I'D BE... Buffy: A LITTLE UPSET.

WOULDN'T YOU?

Cordelia: BUFFY?

BUFFY'S HERE.

IN TOWN.

WHAT BRINGS YOU TO...

I CAME TO SEE MY FATHER.

THOUGHT I'D STOP BY.

WHAT A SURPRISE! HA HA.

CORDELIA, HOW ARE YOU?

GOOD. I'M GOOD. YOU?

I'VE BEEN BETTER.

UH-HUH.

WELL, THIS IS DOYLE, AND HE GETS
VISIONS OF PEOPLE IN TROUBLE.

NICE TO MAKE YOUR ACQUAIN...

AND THIS IS US LEAVING
YOU TWO ALONE.

WELL, UM...

IT'S GOOD TO... CAN I
GET YOU ANYTHING?

HOW ABOUT AN EXPLANATION?

WHO DO YOU THINK YOU
ARE COMING TO MY TOWN,

FOLLOWING ME AROUND
BEHIND MY BACK?

I'M SORRY.

WHAT IS THIS, SOME NEW TORMENT

YOU COOKED UP JUST FOR ME?

NO, I DIDN'T WANT
TO TORMENT YOU...

YOU CAN SEE ME,
BUT I CAN'T SEE YOU.

WHAT ARE WE PLAYING HERE?

WE'RE NOT. I'M NOT
PLAYING ANYTHING.

I WRESTLED WITH THIS DECISION.

WHICH YOU MADE WITHOUT ME.

I TRIED TO DO WHAT I
THOUGHT WAS RIGHT.

IT'S COMPLICATED HOW THIS
ALL HAPPENED, BUFFY, YOU KNOW?

IT'S... IT'S KIND
OF A LONG STORY.

YOUR NEW SIDEKICK
HAD A VISION, I WAS IN IT,

YOU CAME TO SUNNYDALE?

OK, MAYBE NOT THAT LONG.

AND YOU DIDN'T FEEL THAT
I WAS IMPORTANT ENOUGH

TO EVEN TELL ME
THAT YOU WERE THERE.

I'M TRYING TO EXPLAIN.

IT'S BECAUSE I FELT YOU WERE
IMPORTANT THAT I DIDN'T TELL YOU.

I'M A BIG GIRL NOW, ANGEL.

I'M NOT IN HIGH SCHOOL ANYMORE.

A LOT HAS HAPPENED IN
MY LIFE SINCE YOU LEFT.

I KNOW.

I RESPECT THAT.

AND I DON'T NEED YOU SKULKING
AROUND, TRYING TO PROTECT ME.

UNLESS, OF COURSE,

I'M IN SOME GIGANTIC
FIGHT TO THE DEATH, WHICH...

I WAS LAST NIGHT.

THAT WAS YOU
HELPING ME, WASN'T IT?

I WAS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD...

SKULKING.

Doyle: SO THAT'S THE SLAYER?

THAT'S OUR LITTLE BUFFY.

WELL, SHE SEEMED A LITTLE...

BULGARIAN IN THAT OUTFIT?

NO, I WAS GOING TO SAY HURT.

YEAH, THERE'S A LOT OF
THAT WHEN THEY'RE TOGETHER.

COME ON.

WHERE ARE WE GOING?

OH, THEY'LL BE INTO
THIS FOR A WHILE.

WE STILL HAVE TIME
FOR A CAPPUCCINO

AND PROBABLY THE
DIRECTOR'S CUT OF TITANIC.

I'M SORRY IF I HANDLED IT WRONG.

WHAT ELSE WAS I SUPPOSED TO DO?

I DON'T KNOW.

I JUST KNOW...

THAT WHEN YOU'RE AROUND,
WHETHER I SEE YOU OR NOT...

I FEEL YOU.

INSIDE.

AND IT THROWS ME.

THROWS ME, TOO.

SO LET'S JUST STICK TO THE PLAN.

WE'LL KEEP OUR DISTANCE
UNTIL A LOT OF TIME HAS PASSED.

GIVEN ENOUGH TIME,
WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO...

FORGET?

YEAH.

SO...

I'M GONNA GO...

START FORGETTING.

[Crash]

RAARR! UNH!

ANGEL?!

[Fighting]

DID YOU HEAR THAT?

OH, YEAH. THE BUFFY
AND ANGEL SHOW.

FIRST THEY TALK OUT
THEIR DIFFERENCES,

AND THEN THEY PUNCH THEM OUT.

SHOULDN'T WE...

STICK OUR NOSES WHERE THEY DON'T
BELONG AND GET THEM FLATTENED?

HA! NO THANK YOU.

HYAH!

UNH!

RAAAR!

FRIEND OF YOURS?

NEVER SAW IT BEFORE.

IT WAS RUDE. WE
SHOULD GO KILL IT.

I'M FREE.

Buffy: GOT SOMEWHERE
I CAN CHANGE?

IT'S HEADING TOWARDS THE OCEAN.

ARE YOU SURE?

IT'S WOUNDED. I CAN
SMELL ITS BLOOD.

OH. GREAT.

HANDY SKILL.

MAYBE IF YOUR CRACK STAFF HADN'T
RUN OFF AT THE FIRST SIGN OF TROUBLE,

THEY COULD HAVE HELPED
US WITH SOME RESEARCH.

FIND OUT WHAT THIS THING IS
AND WHY IT WANTS TO KILL US.

[Rustling]

JUST A RAT.

SO YOU CAN PUT THAT DOWN NOW.

IT'S NOT A VAMPIRE.

I DON'T KNOW WHY YOU
BROUGHT THAT ANYWAY.

BECAUSE I KNOW HOW TO USE IT.

BESIDES, IT'S A LOT HANDIER
THAN YOUR FIGHTIN' AX.

UNLESS HE CHOPS IT IN TWO,

MAYBE TAKES SOME
OF YOUR HAND WITH IT.

LOOK, CAN WE JUST GET
ON WITH THE HUNTING?

I'D LIKE TO HAVE THIS
DONE BEFORE DARK.

I CAN HANDLE THIS MYSELF.

YOU BAILED ME OUT LAST NIGHT.

I'D LIKE US TO BE EVEN.

WE'RE KEEPING SCORE NOW?

ARE YOU GETTING ANYTHING?

'CAUSE I SURE SMELL SEWER.

TUNNEL NUMBER ONE IT IS.

[Buffy Exhales Deeply]

ANGEL?

YOU OK?

I FEEL WEIRD.

I KNOW. I DO,
TOO. I... I MEAN...

I ONLY CAME TO SEE YOU SO I COULD
TELL YOU FACE-TO-FACE NOT TO...

SEE ME FACE-TO-FACE ANYMORE.

AND I KNOW THERE'S A FLY IN THAT
LOGIC OINTMENT SOMEWHERE, BUT...

THE NEXT THING I KNEW, WE
WERE BEING ATTACKED BY THIS...

MUTANT NINJA DEMON THING AND...

AND THEN WE'RE ON THE FLOOR
ON TOP OF EACH OTHER AND...

IT'S JUST REALLY CONFUSING
BEING AROUND YOU.

NO, I... I MEANT I FELT WEIRD
FROM THE DEMON'S BLOOD.

IT'S POWERFUL.

OH. OK.

LET'S JUST REWIND
BUFFY'S LITTLE OUTBURST

AND PRETEND IT NEVER HAPPENED.

NO, IT IS CONFUSING. AND I...

WHEN WE'RE APART...

IT'S EASIER.

IT HURTS.

EVERY DAY.

BUT I LIVE WITH IT.

NOW YOU'RE...

YOU'RE RIGHT HERE, AND...

I CAN ACTUALLY REACH OUT AND...

IT'S UNBEARABLE.

BUT WE HAVE TO BEAR, RIGHT?

I MEAN, WHAT ELSE CAN WE DO?

IT DOESN'T WORK WITH US.

IT CAN'T.

NO, I... I CAN'T GIVE
YOU A LIFE OR A FUTURE

OR ANYTHING A REAL
GIRL WOULD WANT.

NO MATTER HOW MUCH
WE MISS EACH OTHER.

OR WHAT WE FEEL IN THE MOMENT.

IF WE LET SOMETHING
HAPPEN HERE...

WE'D WANT MORE.

AND NOTHING'S CHANGED.

WE'D ONLY END UP HAVING
TO LEAVE EACH OTHER AGAIN.

AND THAT'S THE
BEST-CASE SCENARIO.

[Sighs]

OH, BOY.

I WAS REALLY JONESING FOR
ANOTHER HEARTBREAKING SEWER TALK.

I'M SORRY. I...

YOU KNOW, I'M ON THE BRINK
OF SOMETHING BACK HOME.

I-I'M ACTUALLY HEADING TOWARD
A PRETTY GOOD LIFE NOW THAT...

I'M OUT OF THE PICTURE.

THAT'S WHY I LEFT.

I WANTED YOU TO HAVE...

COULD WE JUST... FIND THIS THING

AND GET THIS FINISHED?

WHAT IF IT WENT UP?

INTO THE DAY.

WHERE HE KNOWS I CAN'T FOLLOW.

BUT I CAN.

UH, LOOK...

I DON'T WANT YOU
GOING AFTER HIM ALONE.

LOOK, IT'S BEST ALL
AROUND IF WE SPLIT UP.

I CAN HANDLE IT.

THERE'S A DIVE ON SECOND
NEAR BEACH, THE LONE BAR.

DEMONS GO THERE SOMETIMES...

WHEN THEY NEED
TO GET PATCHED UP.

GOT IT.

BE CAREFUL.

HYAH! HYAH!

HYAH!

HYAH!

HYAH!

UNH!

HYAH! UNH!

HYAH!

UNH!

[Gasping]

I'M ALIVE.

Doyle: WHOA, WHEN THEY FIGHT...

OH, MY GOD!

WHAT?

SHE KILLED HIM!

OOPS. MY BAD. IT'S JUST DUST.

I FORGOT TO SWEEP UNDER THE RUG.

WHAT, ARE YOU TRYING TO
GIVE ME A HEART ATTACK?

HEY! DON'T BLAME ME IF HE'S TOO
CHEAP TO HIRE A CLEANING LADY.

[Door Opens]

[Gasps]

WHAT'S WRONG?

WHAT HAPPENED?

DID YOU DO IT WITH BUFFY?

WATCH IT, DOYLE.

DON'T GET TOO CLOSE.

HEY! YOU WALKED IN THE
FRONT DOOR FROM THE STREET.

YOU'VE... YEAH.

GOT AN UMBRELLA.

HE'S ALIVE, CORDELIA.

ALIVE?

BUFFY AND I WERE ATTACKED
BY SOME KIND OF DEMON.

I... I TRACKED IT

AND... AND... AND KILLED IT.

Angel: SOME OF ITS
BLOOD MIXED WITH MINE.

AND YOU WOUND UP WITH A PULSE.

I WANT TO FIND OUT WHAT
KIND OF DEMON THAT WAS.

OWW! MY BACK. IT
HURTS. EVERYTHING'S...

Doyle: MORE REAL?

NOW THAT YOU'RE REAL?

YEAH, I'M MORTAL NOW. I...

I HAVE A MORTAL BODY. AND...

I AM SO... HUNGRY.

LOOK OUT! HE'S GONNA EAT...

EVERYTHING IN SIGHT!

OH, MY GOD! FOOD!

THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE.
THIS IS SO...

MMM. I FORGOT HOW GOOD IT
ALL TASTES WHEN YOU'RE ALIVE.

YEAH, THEY DIDN'T EVEN HAVE COOKIE
DOUGH FUDGE MINT CHIP IN YOUR DAY.

OH, I WANT SOME.
CAN YOU GET THAT?

IT'LL GO STRAIGHT
TO YOUR THIGHS.

MMM.

MMM. CHOCOLATE.

OHH! HA HA HA. CHOCOLATE!

ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT.
WE NEED TO FOCUS HERE.

TRY AND FIGURE OUT...

I LOVE CHOCOLATE.

ARGH! BUT NOT, AS IT
TURNS OUT, YOGURT.

YEUHHGG. Doyle: ORSON!

WE'RE IN A SITUATION HERE.

ALL RIGHT.

I KNOW. YOU'RE RIGHT.

LET ME THINK.

AND NOW MY STOMACH'S KILLING ME.

CORDELIA...

FIND BUFFY. SHE'S IN SANTA
MONICA, NEAR THE LONE BAR.

TELL HER I KILLED THE DEMON.

OK.

OH, WAIT!

DON'T TELL HER WHAT'S
HAPPENED TO ME.

NOT TILL I KNOW WHAT IT MEANS.

ALL RIGHT.

THAT'S IT.

IT'S CALLED A MOHRA DEMON.

THEY'RE PRETTY
POWERFUL ASSASSINS.

SOLDIERS-OF-DARKNESS
KIND OF THING.

THEY TAKE OUT
WARRIORS FOR OUR SIDE,

LIKE YOU AND BUFFY.

"NEEDS VAST QUANTITIES
OF SALT TO LIVE."

IT WAS HEADING
TOWARDS SALT WATER.

"VEINS RUN WITH THE
BLOOD OF ETERNITY."

THERE IT IS!

ITS BLOOD HAS
REGENERATIVE PROPERTIES.

WHICH EXPLAINS
WHAT HAPPENED TO ME.

IT DOESN'T EXPLAIN WHY.

THE DEMON'S DEAD. YOU'RE
ALIVE. IT'S HAPPY-FUN TIME.

WHAT'S GOING ON HERE, DOYLE?

I DON'T KNOW.

I THOUGHT THE ONLY WAY
YOU COULD BE MADE MORTAL

WAS IF THE POWERS
THAT BE STEPPED IN.

WHAT? THEY COULD HAVE DONE THIS?

HOW COME I KEEP GETTING THE FEELING
THAT YOU'RE NOT TELLING ME EVERYTHING?

BECAUSE I'M NOT.

WE'RE BOTH ON A
NEED-TO-KNOW BASIS HERE.

I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT
THIS. IS THIS PERMANENT?

AM I... AM I NORMAL JOE NOW?
CAN I HAVE A NORMAL LIFE?

I WANT TO SPEAK TO
THE POWERS THAT BE.

WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA!

THAT'S EASIER SAID
THAN DONE, BUD.

THE POWERS THAT BE
DON'T LIVE IN OUR REALITY.

YOU HAVE TO APPROACH
THEM THROUGH CHANNELS.

DANGEROUS CHANNELS.

YEAH, YOU KNOW WHAT?
START APPROACHING.

ALL RIGHT. ALL RIGHT.

MAYBE WE COULD TRY THE ORACLES.

BUT HEY, IF THEY
TURN YOU INTO A TOAD...

DON'T SAY I DIDN'T WARN YOU.

Angel: "THE GATEWAY
FOR LOST SOULS..."

IS UNDER THE POST OFFICE?

IT DOES MAKE SENSE,
YOU THINK ABOUT IT.

NOW LISTEN, THE ORACLES
ARE FINICKY AND UNPREDICTABLE.

YOU DO GET IN, DON'T DILLYDALLY.

ASK YOUR QUESTIONS, GET OUT.

AREN'T YOU COMING?

NOT ALLOWED. I'M JUST
A LOWLY MESSENGER.

YOU'RE A WARRIOR.

IF YOUR HEART IS PURE
AND I DO THIS RIGHT...

"WE BESEECH ACCESS
TO THE KNOWING ONES"...

WE MAY JUST SURVIVE.

YOU'RE IN.

Brother: COME BEFORE
US, LOWER BEING.

WHAT HAVE YOU BROUGHT US?

WAS I SUPPOSED TO...

YOU CALL US FORTH
AND BRING NO OFFERING?

I BROUGHT YOU THIS.

I LIKE TIME.

THERE'S SO LITTLE
AND SO MUCH OF IT.

WELL?

WHAT'S HAPPENED TO ME?

IT'S TRUE THEN, BROTHER.

HE'S NO LONGER A WARRIOR.

IT WAS THE DEMON'S BLOOD.

IT WASN'T THE POWERS
THAT BE THAT DID THIS?

THE POWERS THAT BE?

DID YOU SAVE HUMANITY?

AVERT THE APOCALYPSE?

YOU FACED A MOHRA
DEMON. LIFE GOES ON.

MY LIFE AS A HUMAN? I'M NOT
POISONED OR UNDER SOME SPELL?

THE AUGURIES SAY NO.

IF IT HAS HAPPENED,
IT WAS MEANT TO BE.

FROM THIS DAY, YOU WILL LIVE
AND DIE AS ANY MORTAL MAN.

Sister: PRIVY TO ALL THE
ATTENDANT PAINS AND PLEASURES.

THAT WHICH WE SERVE IS NO
LONGER THAT WHICH YOU SERVE.

YOU ARE RELEASED
FROM YOUR FEALTY.

THAT'S IT? I'M FREE?

UNH!

ANGEL, IT DIDN'T WORK?

YES, IT DID.

YOU JUST WENT IN
THIS INSTANT. WHAT?!

LOOK AT YOUR WATCH.

I CAN'T DO THAT, DOYLE. NEXT
TIME REMIND ME TO BRING A GIFT.

I KNEW I FORGOT SOMETHING.

SO WHAT HAPPENED?
WHAT DID THEY SAY?

THEY'RE A LITTLE
CONFUSING, BUT...

THE GIST IS...

IT'S REAL.

I'M FREE.

I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS.

ME, EITHER. I MEAN...

WHAT DO I DO NOW?

I GOT THIS WHOLE NEW
LIFE SPREAD OUT BEFORE ME.

I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO BEGIN.

RIGHT. IT'S OVERWHELMING.

YOU CAN PRETTY MUCH DO
WHATEVER YOU WANT NOW.

SO THE QUESTION IS...

WHAT DO YOU WANT?

[Waves Crashing]

THIS PLANT WAS THRIVING
JUST THIS MORNING.

NOW LOOK AT IT.

I'M TELLING YOU,
WHERE SHE LEADS,

DARK FORCES FOLLOW.

BUFFY GAVE IT MITES?

HOW ELSE DO YOU EXPLAIN IT?

JEALOUSY?

I'M JEALOUS OF HER?!

OH, PLEASE!

JUST A THEORY.

JEALOUS OR NOT, OUR LIVES
ARE ABOUT TO KALEIDOSCOPE.

WELL, HOW DO YOU FIGURE?
ANGEL'S ONLY BEEN HUMAN A DAY.

THE LAST 2-1/2 HOURS OF WHICH
THEY'VE SPENT DOWN THERE

IN HIS APARTMENT...

TOGETHER.

SO? DON'T THEY DESERVE A LITTLE
HAPPINESS AFTER ALL THEY'VE BEEN THROUGH?

LET ME EXPLAIN
THE LORE HERE, OK?

THEY SUFFER, THEY FIGHT.
THAT'S BUSINESS AS USUAL.

THEY GET GROINY
WITH ONE ANOTHER,

THE WORLD AS WE
KNOW IT FALLS APART.

WELL, HE'S NOT CURSED ANYMORE.

AND ANYWAY, YOU CAN'T
BE SURE THAT THEY'RE...

OH, PLEASE!

THEY'VE GOT THE
FORBIDDEN LOVE OF ALL TIME.

THEY'VE BEEN APART FOR MONTHS.

NOW HE'S SUDDENLY HUMAN?

I'M SURE THEY'RE DOWN THERE
JUST HAVING TEA AND CRACKERS.

[Liquid Pouring]

WOULD YOU LIKE SOME MORE?

NO! THANK YOU.

I'M REALLY SORRY I KISSED
YOU LIKE THAT. YOU ARE?

NOT FOR THE KISS ITSELF...

GOOD. I... I MEAN, 'CAUSE...

AS FAR AS KISSES GO, I THOUGHT
IT WAS WELL ABOVE AVERAGE.

IT WAS INCREDIBLE.
I JUST... I... I THINK...

MAYBE WE'D BE ASKING FOR
TROUBLE, RUSHING BACK INTO THINGS.

NOT THAT I DON'T WANT
TO RUSH. I DO, BELIEVE ME.

RIGHT.

I MEAN, YOU SPOKE
TO THE ORACLES AND...

THEY DID SAY THAT YOU
WERE CURED FOR GOOD.

BUT HOW DO WE KNOW THAT THEY
REALLY SPEAK FOR THE POWERS?

I MEAN, THEY COULD BE...

PRANKSTERS.

OR THERE COULD BE
ANOTHER LOOPHOLE.

EXACTLY. AND THEN THE TWO
OF US ARE IN EVEN DEEPER

AND IT'S "GRR" ALL OVER AGAIN.

IT WOULD BE SMART
TO WAIT A WHILE.

SEE IF THIS MORTAL THING TAKES.

EXACTLY.

AND EVEN IF IT DOES,
IT'S STILL COMPLICATED.

YOU'RE STILL THE SLAYER.

AND I'M NOT SURE WHAT I AM NOW.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT MY PURPOSE IS.

I CAN'T JUST WEDGE MYSELF
INTO YOUR LIFE BACK IN SUNNYDALE.

IT WOULDN'T BE GOOD
FOR EITHER OF US.

NOT TO MENTION THE FACT
THAT YOU JUST STARTED COLLEGE.

AND WHAT ABOUT SLAYING? I MEAN,
IF YOU HAD ME TO WORRY ABOUT,

YOU MIGHT NOT BE AS FOCUSED.

ARE YOU GOING TO PULL
OUT A PIE CHART ON ME NOW?

'CAUSE I GET IT.

IT'S NOT NECESSARY.

I'M NOT SAYING I DON'T
WANT YOU, BUFFY.

YOU KNOW HOW MUCH...

I'M JUST SAYING
IT'S WORTH THE WAIT

TO KNOW THAT IT'S RIGHT.

I NEED TO BE SURE YOU
WON'T GET HURT AGAIN.

YOU KNOW, IT'S A GOOD
THING I DIDN'T FANTASIZE

ABOUT YOU TURNING HUMAN

ONLY ABOUT 10 ZILLION TIMES,

'CAUSE TODAY WOULD
HAVE BEEN A REAL LETDOWN.

SO HOW DOES THE MATURE PLAN GO?

YOU CALL ME? I CALL YOU? WHAT?

WE STAY IN TOUCH.

JUST NOT... LITERALLY.

FUNNY.

OK, I'D BETTER...

RIGHT. REMOVE THE TEMPTATION.

SO WE'LL... TALK SOON.

Buffy: AND PEANUT BUTTER.

PREFERABLY CRUNCHY.

GOT IT.

UNH! MMM.

MMM.

A PERFECT YUM.

[Laughs]

MMM.

THIS IS A DREAM.

YOU'RE HUMAN FOR LIKE A MINUTE,

AND ALREADY THERE'S COOKIE
DOUGH FUDGE MINT CHIP IN THE FRIDGE.

GOD, I LOVE FOOD.

FOOD IS GOOD.

MMM.

WHY DIDN'T YOU EVER TELL ME ABOUT
CHOCOLATE AND PEANUT BUTTER?

HMM. WELL...

I FIGURED IF YOUR VAMP TASTE
BUDS COULDN'T REALLY SAVOR IT,

THEN IT WOULD ONLY
HURT YOU TO KNOW.

BY THE WAY, I'M OVER THE WHOLE
NEEDING-TO-BE-MATURE THING.

THAT TIME YOU JUST
SPENT IN THE KITCHEN?

THAT WAS ENOUGH TIME APART.

TOO MUCH.

OH, OK. HA...

UH, MORTAL COORDINATION
LEAVING SOMETHING TO BE DESIRED.

WRONG. IT'S JUST RIGHT.

[Laughs]

Cordelia: WELL, THIS IS
WORKING OUT NICELY.

I'M OUT OF A JOB!

HEY, NOT JUST YOU, YOU KNOW.

OH, PLEASE. WHO ARE YOU KIDDING?

YOU KNOW YOU'RE
GLAD THIS HAPPENED.

HEY, I'M GLAD FOR ANGEL, BUT
IF THAT MEANS I'M OFF THE HOOK

WITH THE POWERS THAT
BE AS WELL, ALL THE BETTER.

I'LL FINALLY BE FREE TO GO OUT AND
MAKE MY OWN MARK IN THE WORLD.

WE HAD A CAT THAT
USED TO DO THAT.

OH, GOD! WHAT AM I GONNA DO?

I'M GOOD FOR EXACTLY 2 THINGS:

INTERNATIONAL SUPERSTARDOM,

OR HELPING A VAMPIRE WITH A
SOUL TO RID THE WORLD OF EVIL.

THAT MAKES FOR A SHORT BUT...

COLORFUL RESUME.

WELL, WHATEVER HAPPENS
FROM HERE ON OUT,

AT LEAST I'LL BE ABLE TO SAY
GOOD-BYE TO THE BONE CRUSHIN',

HEAD WRENCHIN',

MIND-NUMBING VISIONS.

OWW!

WHAT DO YOU SEE?

WE GOT TROUBLE.

THAT'S A GOOD SOUND.

THUMP, THUMP...

THUMP, THUMP, THUMP.

IT FEELS PRETTY AMAZING.

I'M SO GLAD WE DIDN'T LOGIC
OURSELVES OUT OF THIS.

WE'LL MAKE IT WORK, RIGHT?

WE WILL.

OH, I'M SO SLEEPY.

BUT I STILL WANT...

WHAT? YOU COULDN'T POSSIBLY.

I MEAN, NOT THAT I WOULDN'T...

NO. NO.

I'M SPENT.

PLEASANTLY NUMB EVEN.

YOU?

FOR NOW.

NO, I...

WANT TO STAY AWAKE

SO THIS DAY CAN KEEP HAPPENING.

SLEEP.

WE'LL MAKE ANOTHER
ONE LIKE IT TOMORROW.

ANGEL?

THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I'VE
EVER REALLY FELT THIS WAY.

WHAT WAY?

JUST LIKE I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO.

LIKE A NORMAL GIRL.

FALLING ASLEEP IN THE ARMS
OF HER NORMAL BOYFRIEND.

IT'S PERFECT.

[Door Opens]

[Rapid Footsteps]

HEY, THAT MOH...

THAT MOHRA DEMON
REGENERATED MORE THAN JUST YOU.

WHAT?! I HAD A VISION.
IT'S REGENERATED ITSELF.

WHERE?

IN THE TUNNEL
WHERE YOU FOUGHT IT.

THEN IT WAS IN SOME FACTORY.

I THOUGHT IT TASTED LIKE SALT.

IT COULD HAVE BEEN
THE MARGARITA, THOUGH.

NO, IT NEEDS A LOT
OF SALT TO LIVE.

WELL, IT WAS VERY
MUCH ALIVE IN THIS VISION.

AND ANGRY, IF I MIGHT MENTION.

I'LL HAVE TO KILL IT AGAIN.

YEAH, BUT YOU'RE HUMAN NOW.

THEY RELEASED YOU.

YOU WANT TO LET
THAT THING ROAM FREE?

YOU SAW IT IN A FACTORY.

THERE'S A SALINE
PLANT IN REDONDO.

WE'LL START THERE.

BUT IF IT CAN REGENERATE
ITSELF, HOW CAN YOU KILL IT?

WE'LL FIGURE IT OUT.

JUST GRAB THE BOOK OF KELSOR.

YOU'LL READ, I'LL DRIVE.

DOYLE?

I THINK MAYBE WE OUGHTA
BRING SOMEONE A LITTLE...

SUPERNATURAL.

DON'T YOU WANT TO WAKE THE GIRL?

NOT FOR THE WORLD.

OK, THIS IS NOT GOOD.

IT DOESN'T JUST COME BACK... IT
COMES BACK BIGGER AND STRONGER.

WE SHOULD GO BACK AND GET BUFFY.

I KNOW WHAT I'M DOING.

BUT THIS ISN'T YOUR AVERAGE
DEMON WE'RE FIGHTING HERE.

IF THIS IS GOING TO
WORK WITH ME AND BUFFY,

I'LL HAVE TO BE ABLE
TO DO THIS ON MY OWN.

I CAN'T KEEP RISKING HER LIFE
EVERY TIME SOME MINION OF HELL...

JUST TELL ME HOW TO KILL IT.

OK. "IT REGENERATES UNTIL THE
DARK FUTURE IT ENVISIONS IS UPON US..."

OK, "UH, TO SLAY THE BEAST,

ONE MUST BRING
DARKNESS TO 1,000 EYES."

Angel: FUNNY, I ONLY SAW 2.

OH, KEEP UP THE GLIB, MAN. IT MAKES
ME FEEL LIKE WE HAVE A CHANCE...

[Angel Coughs, Gags]

EASY, MATE.

THE BLOOD.

IT'S NEVER AN EASY SIGHT.

IT'S PART OF BEING HUMAN NOW.

I'M GOING TO KILL THIS THING.

Doyle: JUST REMEMBER THAT
IT'S BRUTAL, DEADLY, AND...

HERE!

DAMN!

HYAH!

UNH!

ANGEL?

CORDELIA.

IS THIS ANTIQUE?

BYZANTINE.

HMM.

WHERE IS ANGEL?

I'VE DECIDED NOT TO
FEEL SORRY FOR MYSELF.

I'M TAKING MATTERS
INTO MY OWN HANDS,

ORGANIZING A LITTLE "GOING
OUT OF BUSINESS" SALE

TO SUBSIDIZE THE
SEVERANCE PACKAGE

WHICH ANGEL NEVER
BOTHERED SETTING UP FOR ME.

DID HE LEAVE A MESSAGE
ABOUT WHERE HE WENT?

YOU KNOW, I'M IN
SOME REAL PAIN HERE,

AND ALL YOU CAN DO
IS TALK ABOUT ANGEL.

HAS IT EVEN OCCURRED TO YOU HOW
THIS WHOLE TURNING-HUMAN THING

MIGHT AFFECT ME?

REGRETTABLY... NO.

LOOK, IF YOU KNOW
WHERE HE IS, JUST TELL ME.

[Sighs]

HE TOLD ME NOT TO TELL YOU.

IS HE IN TROUBLE?

CORDELIA, WHAT ARE WE,
IN SECOND GRADE HERE?

TELL ME.

OH, YOU WANT TO TALK
ABOUT BEING MATURE?

MAYBE IT'S TIME YOU GREW UP

AND REALIZED THAT YOU
CAN'T HAVE EVERYTHING.

YOU CAN'T HAVE ANGEL
AND SAVE THE WORLD.

AND ANYWAY...

IT IS YOUR FAULT THAT HE WENT TO
FIGHT THAT THING BY HIMSELF WITHOUT...

WHAT THING?

HYAH!

HYAH!

UNH!

[Coughs]

[Growls]

THE END OF DAYS HAS BEGUN
AND CANNOT BE STOPPED.

FOR ANY ONE OF US THAT FALLS,

10 SHALL RISE.

YOU HURT MY BOYFRIEND!

A GREAT DARKNESS IS COMING.

YOU GOT THAT RIGHT.

HYAH!

COME ON! THIS THE GREAT
WARRIOR OF DARKNESS?

HYAH!

HYAH!

HYAH!

HYAH! HYAH! HYAH!

UNH!

TOGETHER YOU WERE POWERFUL.

ALONE, YOU ARE DEAD.

AAH! AAH!

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF
THE GREAT WARRIOR NOW?

Angel: A LITTLE BLAND.

NEEDS SALT.

[Demon Screams]

HYAH!

OWW!

UUH!

THE THOUSAND EYES.

THE JEWEL IN HIS FOREHEAD!
YOU HAVE TO SMASH THE JEWEL!

AAH! NO!

[Groans]

[Groans]

BUFFY, ARE YOU...

SHH. SHH. DON'T TALK.

YOU'RE ALL RIGHT.

[Groans]

THAT'S ALL THAT MATTERS.

SHH. YOU'RE ALL RIGHT.

AND IT'S OVER.

AND WE'RE TOGETHER.

YOU AGAIN?

WHAT HAVE YOU BROUGHT ME?

A FAMILLE ROSE VASE,

CHING DYNASTY.

CIRCA 1811.

LOVELY.

WHY ARE YOU HERE, LOWER BEING?

THE MOHRA DEMON SAID
THE END OF DAYS HAD BEGUN.

THAT OTHERS WERE COMING.

SOLDIERS OF DARKNESS.

I NEED TO KNOW IF HE
WAS TELLING THE TRUTH.

AS FAR AS SUCH
THINGS CAN BE TOLD.

AND WHAT HAPPENS TO THE
SLAYER WHEN THESE SOLDIERS COME?

WHAT HAPPENS TO
ALL MORTAL BEINGS.

ALBEIT SOONER IN HER CASE.

SHE'LL DIE?

I'M HERE TO BEG FOR HER LIFE.

IT IS NOT OUR PLACE TO
GRANT LIFE AND DEATH.

Angel: AND ASK YOU
TO TAKE MINE BACK.

LOOK, I CAN'T PROTECT
HER OR ANYONE THIS WAY,

NOT AS A MAN.

YOU'RE ASKING TO
BE WHAT YOU WERE,

A DEMON WITH A SOUL?

BECAUSE OF THE SLAYER?

OH, THIS IS A MATTER OF LOVE.

IT DOES NOT CONCERN US.

Angel: YES, IT DOES.

THE MOHRA DEMON CAME TO TAKE
A WARRIOR FROM YOUR CAUSE...

AND IT SUCCEEDED.

I'M NO GOOD TO YOU LIKE THIS.

I KNOW YOU HAVE IT IN YOUR
POWER TO MAKE THIS RIGHT.

PLEASE.

WHAT IS DONE CANNOT BE UNDONE.

WHAT IS NOT YET
DONE CAN BE AVOIDED.

TEMPORAL FOLDS ARE NOT
TO INDULGE THE... THE WHIMS

OF LOWER BEINGS.

YOU ARE WRONG!

THIS ONE IS WILLING TO SACRIFICE
EVERY DROP OF HUMAN HAPPINESS

AND LOVE HE'S EVER
KNOWN FOR ANOTHER.

HE IS NOT A LOWER BEING.

THERE IS ONE WAY.

BUT IT IS NOT TO BE
UNDERTAKEN LIGHTLY.

WE SWALLOW THIS DAY, AS
THOUGH IT NEVER HAPPENED.

24 HOURS FROM THE MOMENT
THE DEMON FIRST ATTACKED YOU,

WE TAKE IT BACK.

THEN NONE OF THIS HAPPENED.

BUFFY AND I...

WHAT... WHAT'LL STOP US FROM
DOING THE EXACT SAME THING?

YOU.

YOU ALONE WILL CARRY
THE MEMORY OF THIS DAY.

CAN YOU CARRY THAT BURDEN?

[Footsteps]

I'M GUESSING THAT EXPRESSION ISN'T
BECAUSE THEY WERE ALL OUT OF FRESH O.J.

AT THE DELI.

WHAT HAPPENED?

NOTHING HAPPENED.

I JUST...

WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?

I WENT TO SEE THE ORACLES.

I ASKED THEM TO TURN ME BACK.

WHAT? WHY?

BECAUSE MORE THAN EVER I
KNOW HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU.

NO. NO, YOU DIDN'T.

IF I STAY MORTAL, ONE
OF US WILL WIND UP DEAD.

MAYBE BOTH OF US.

YOU HEARD WHAT MOHRA SAID.

MOHRA'S GONE. WE KILLED HIM.

HE SAID OTHERS WOULD COME.

THEY ALWAYS COME,
AND THEY ALWAYS WILL.

BUT THAT'S MY PROBLEM
NOW, NOT YOURS, REMEMBER?

NO, I WON'T JUST STAND BY AND
LET YOU FIGHT, MAYBE DIE, ALONE.

THEN WE FIGHT TOGETHER.

BUFFY, YOU SAW WHAT
HAPPENED LAST NIGHT.

IF ANYTHING, I'M A
LIABILITY TO YOU.

YOU TAKE CHANCES TO PROTECT
ME. THAT'S NOT JUST BAD FOR YOU,

IT'S BAD FOR THE PEOPLE
WE WERE MEANT TO HELP.

SO WHAT? YOU JUST
TOOK A WHOLE 24 HOURS

TO WEIGH THE UPS AND
DOWNS OF BEING A REGULAR JOE

AND DECIDED IT WAS MORE
FUN BEING A SUPERHERO?

YOU KNOW THAT'S NOT IT.

HOW CAN WE BE TOGETHER
IF THE COST IS YOUR LIFE?

OR THE LIVES OF OTHERS?

I KNOW. I... I
COULDN'T TELL YOU.

I WASN'T SURE...

I COULD DO IT IF I WOKE UP
WITH YOU ONE MORE MORNING.

I UNDERSTAND.

[Sniffles]

SO WHAT HAPPENS NOW?

THE ORACLES ARE
GIVING US BACK THE DAY.

TURNING BACK TIME

SO I CAN KILL MOHRA BEFORE
HIS BLOOD MAKES ME MORTAL.

WHEN?

ANOTHER MINUTE.

A MINUTE?! NO!

NO, IT'S NOT ENOUGH TIME!

WE DON'T HAVE A
CHOICE. IT'S DONE.

HOW AM I SUPPOSED
TO GO ON WITH MY LIFE,

KNOWING WHAT WE HAD?

WHAT WE COULD HAVE HAD?

YOU WON'T.

NO ONE WILL KNOW BUT ME.

EVERYTHING WE DID.

IT NEVER HAPPENED.

IT DID! IT DID! I KNOW IT DID.

I FELT YOUR HEART BEAT.

BUFFY...

Buffy: NO!

OH, GOD, IT'S NOT ENOUGH TIME.

SHH. SHH. PLEASE. [Sniffles]

NO. PLEASE. PLEASE.

Buffy: I'LL NEVER FORGET.

I'LL NEVER FORGET.
I'LL NEVER FORGET.

Buffy: I'LL NEVER FORGET.
I'LL NEVER FORGET.

SO...

THEN LET'S... JUST
STICK TO THE PLAN.

KEEP OUR DISTANCE
UNTIL, UH, TIME HAS PASSED.

GIVEN ENOUGH TIME
WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO...

FORGET.

YEAH.

SO... I'M GONNA... GO...

START FORGETTING.

[Crash]

THAT WAS UNREAL.

HOW DID YOU KNOW HOW TO KILL IT?

IT'S A MOHRA DEMON.

I, UM, I'VE HAD A LOT OF TIME
TO CATCH UP ON MY READING.

YEAH. OK.

SO I GUESS WE'VE
COVERED IT, RIGHT?

GUESS WE DID.

AND THAT'S ALL THERE
REALLY IS TO SAY.

YEAH.

GRR! ARRGH!
