Quotes 

• Angel : Oh, good, you're back. Cordelia, you need to...

  Cordelia : No! I don't care what horrible thing is about to happen: Asteroids are hurtling towards Earth, unspeakable evil is rising in the San Fernando valley, Jar-Jar is getting his own talk show. Whatever, I don't wanna hear about it.

• Cordelia : [covered in slime and annoyed with Angel]  You do remember leaving us in a sewer with a giant calamari?

  Angel : Yeah, and you're both here so I assume it went okay, right?

  Cordelia : Yeah, it went okay, of course it went okay... *okay* - that's not the point!

  Angel : So there is a point?

  Cordelia : Being that it is possible to brood and show a little interest in the feelings of others.

  Angel : [looks at Doyle, shakes head and sighs] 

  Allen Francis Doyle : Oh, she thinks you're insensitive and, not to bring up the irony but, heh, consider the source!

• Cordelia : You've got pensive face.

  Angel : I've always got pensive face.

  Cordelia : Well, pensive-r face.

• Cordelia : [to Angel, after he starts acting "sensitive"]  Hey! What's your damage?

  Allen Francis Doyle : I think he's just found Mr. Sensitivity.

  Angel : [Angel puts a hand on his heart]  He was right in here all the time, just waiting to come out. - Gosh, what our folks do to us, huh?

• Allen Francis Doyle : Angel, man, you've got to snap out of this!

  Cordelia : Right now. It's time for you to get all vampy - grr! - Kate needs you.

  Angel : [Shakes his head]  I don't want to. You both withdraw when I go vamp. I feel you judge me.

  Cordelia : We won't judge you,

  [to Doyle] 

  Cordelia : will we?

  [to Angel] 

  Cordelia : give it a try.

  Angel : [Shakes his head again]  Closeness is too important to me right now.

• Angel : What's the magic word?

  Cordelia : Urgh!

  Angel : No, I don't think 'urgh' is the magic word, if one would *call* it a word. And even then it's certainly not a magic one."

  Cordelia : We don't have time for this!

  Angel : There is always time to be considerate of others, Cordelia.

• Cordelia : The whole place is going nuts! This is so not good.

  Angel : Okay, I think someone needs a hug.

  Cordelia , Allen Francis Doyle : Huh?

  Cordelia : [Angel pulls them both into a hug]  Ack, eww? Eww!

• Angel : So I'm a little reserved, that doesn't mean I don't care.

  Cordelia : It's like you don't have a pulse!

  Angel : ...I don't

• [Cordelia clears her throat conspicuously] 

  Angel : What?

  Cordelia : Nothing. I just find it endlessly fascinating how your instincts are so highly attuned when it comes to boring old evil, but you have yet to make any mention of these new shoes.

  Angel : Look, Cordelia. Women's shoes... men... they just don't...

  [Doyle enters] 

  Allen Francis Doyle : Great shoes. New?

• Cordelia : Am I wrong in thinking that a "please" and "thank you" is generally considered good form when requesting a dismemberment?

• Cordelia : Does giant tentacle spew come out with dry cleaning?

• Cordelia : Mr. and Mrs. Spock need to mind-meld now.

• Angel : Cordelia, I wanted to, you know, thank you so much for goin' through those coroner reports, because I can imagine how not fun it is to read about, you know, coroner stuff.

  Cordelia : Lame.

• Detective Kate Lockley : Where is the truth? He's hiding behind Mr. Humor. Look at - look at Doyle, really look at him. What do you see?

  Cordelia : A bad double-poly blend?

  Detective Kate Lockley : That's defense, Cordelia. Maybe you should try to open your heart to a new possibility.

  Allen Francis Doyle : Hey, you know, she's startin' to make some sen...

• Cordelia : He put the whammy on you! You stink with whammy.

• Cordelia : What's her deal? Too much...?

  [gestures] 

  Allen Francis Doyle : Thumb sucking?

  Cordelia : Alcohol!

• Cordelia : [Angel and Kate are hugging]  Anyone for vomit?

• Allen Francis Doyle : [about Angel]  I think he appreciates us - in his own - unappreciative way.

  Cordelia : You want to know what I think? I think he *uses* his tortured creature of the night status as a license to be rude and insensitive!

  [a tentacle wraps itself around Doyle's neck choking him Cordy never notices as she begins to slice up the monster] 

  Cordelia : Sure, he is polite to the helpless and the downtrodden, but he ignores the people that are the closest to him. The people that matter the most, you know?

  [Doyle is still being choked] 

  Cordelia : Can you say clueless?
