Angel: You should be resting.

Angel: Where you gonna go? Back out into that darkness? I once told you you didn't have to go out into the darkness. Remember? That it was your choice. Well, you chose. you thought you could just touch it. That you'd be o.k. Five by five, right Faith? But it swallowed you whole. So tell me . . . how'd you like it?
Faith: So, how does this work?
Angel: There's no real simple answer to that. I won't lie to you and tell you it'll be easy . . . 'cause it won't be. Just because you decided to change doesn't mean the world's ready for you to. The truth is, no matter how much you suffer . . . no matter how many good deeds you do to try and make up for the past, you may never balance out the cosmic scale. The only thing I can promise you is that you'll probably be haunted. Maybe for the rest of your life.
Faith: (motioning toward the microwave) So, how does this work?

Faith: Oh God, B. How am I ever gonna make it right with her?
Angel: Faith, this isn't about Buffy.
Faith: All my life, there was only one person who tried to be my friend. Went out of her way when I had no right or reason to expect her to, and I screwed her. Not to mention her boyfriend, only, him, literally.
Angel: Faith, you and I never actually -
Faith: No, not you, the new one.
(*Angelgirl's heart breaks* This is just too sad. You can truly see the pain in Angel's eyes as she says this)
Angel: (coming out of the shower) Is everything o.k. in there?
Faith: It was touch and go for those four minutes you left me alone, but somehow I got through it.
Angel: It's not what you think.
Buffy: You actually think I can form a thought right now?
Buffy: You hit me.
Angel: Not to go all schoolyard on you, but you hit me first. And in case you'd forgotten, you're a little bit stronger than I am.
Buffy: You did it for her.
Angel: You were about three seconds from making her run. You know that. She's at a crucial stage.
Buffy: She's playing you! She tried to kill you.
Angel: That was just - that was just a cry for help.
Buffy: No, a cry for help is when you say 'help' in a loud voice.
Faith: Angel said there was no way you were gonna give me a chance.
Buffy: I gave you every chance! I tried so hard, and you spat on me. My life was just something for you to play with. Angel . . . Riley . . . anything that you could take from me, you took. I've lost battles before, but nobody else has ever made me a victim.

Angel: Not in my city.
Buffy: I have someone in my life now. That I love. It's not what you and I had. It's very new. You know what makes it new? I trust him. I know him.
Angel: That's great. It's nice. You moved on . . . I can't. You found someone new. I'm not allowed to, remember? I see you again, it cuts me up inside. And the person I share that with is me. You don't know me anymore, so don't come down here with your great new life and expect me to do things your way! Go home.
