Angel used to say the sweetest things, but after the episode "Innocence", he changed dramatically. And "Becoming" was another episode of change for Angel, and the rest of the cast, most especially Buffy. And now it's third season and Angel's in hell! He's only in her dreams! Agghh!!!! Remember how this all started? That first kiss between Buffy and Angel.
"Surprise"
Angel: "My people before I was changed they exchanged this as a sign of devotion. It's a claddagh ring. The hands represent friendship, the crown represents loyalty, and the heart, well you know. Wear it with the heart pointing towards you it means you belong to somebody.
Angel: I love you. I try not to, but I can't stop.
Buffy: Me--Me, too. I can't either.
"Innocence"
Angel: Buffy! Oh, no...
Lady: Hey, you okay?
Angelus: No, the pain is gone. (Angelus kills the lady.) I feel just fine.
Angelus: Force won't get it done. You gotta work from the inside, to kill this girl... you have to love her.
Angelus: I got a message for Buffy.
Buffy: Then why don't you tell it to me yourself?
Angelus: Oh, it's not really the kind of message you tell. It sort of involves finding the bodies of all your friends.
Buffy: This can't be you.
Angelus: We already covered that subject.
Buffy: Angel, there must be some part of you inside, that still remembers who you are.
Angelus: Dream on schoolgirl. Your boyfriend is dead. You're all going to join him.
Angelus: Things are about to get very interesting.
Angelus: You know what the worst part was huh? Pretending that I loved you. If I'd known how easily you'd give it up, I wouldn't have bothered.
Buffy: It doesn't work anymore. You're not Angel.
Angelus: You'd like to think that wouldn't you? Doesn't matter. The important thing is you made me the man I am today.
Angelus: You can't do it. You can't kill me.
Buffy: Give me time.
"Phases"
Girl as Vamp: Angel send his love!
Buffy: Angel?
Buffy: This isn't happening, he's going to keep coming after me.
Xander: Don't let him get to you. He's not the same guy you knew.
"Passion"
Angelus: Passion. It lies in all of us. Sleeping, waiting, and though unwanted, unbitten, it will stir. Open it's jaws, and howl. It speaks to us, guides us. Passion rules us all, and we obey. What other choice do we have? Passion is the source of our finest moments. The joy of love, the clarity of hatred, and the ecstasy of grief. It hurts sometimes more than we can bear. If we can live without passion, maybe we'd know some kind of peace. But we would be hollow. Empty rooms, shuttered and dank. Without passion, we'd be truly dead.
Buffy: Look, I know you feel badly about what happened and I just wanted to say... Good, keep it up.
Jenny: I will.
Buffy: I wasn't ready, but now I think I finally am. I can't hold onto the past anymore. Angel is gone, nothing is ever going to bring him back!
"Killed by Death"
Angelus: Not feeling well lover? (Buffy hits him, and Angelus falls)
Buffy: That helps!
Angelus: Uh oh, this does not look good for our heroine!
Xander: Take a walk overbite.
Angelus: Buffy's white knight. You still love her, must just eat you up that I got there first!
"I Only Have Eyes For You"
Xander: Yikes... the quality of mercy is not Buffy.
Giles: To forgive is an act of compassion, Buffy. It's not done because people deserve it, it's done because they need it.
Buffy: No. James destroyed the one person he loved the most in a moment of blind passion, and that's not something you forgive. No matter why he did what he did. And no matter if he knows now that he was wrong, and selfish, and stupid. That's just something he's going to have to live with.
Xander: He can't live with it Buff. He's dead.
(Angel and Buffy kiss)
Buffy: Angel.
(Angelus snarls then pushes her away.)
Buffy: A part of me just doesn't understand why she would forgive him.
Giles: Does it matter?
Buffy: No. I guess not.
Angelus: Try to have fun without me.
Spike: Oh, I will. (He gets up out of wheelchair and smashes it to pieces.) Sooner than you think.
"Go Fish"
Gage: B***H!
Angelus: Gotta be talking about Buffy.
Gage: How did you know?
Angelus: She and I had this thing once. Biggest mistake of my life.
Cordelia: Xander?! What the hell are you doing here?!
Xander: Shh... I'm undercover.
Buffy: Not under much.
"Becoming"(Part 1)
Angelus: There's moments in your life that make you. That set the course of who you're going to be. Sometimes they're little subtle moments. Sometime's they're not. Here I'll show you what I mean.
Angel:(This is in 1753) I've never been anywhere myself. I've always wanted to see the world but...
Darla: I could show you. Things you've never seen never even heard of.
Angel: Sounds exciting.
Darla: It is. And Frightening.
Angel: I'm not afraid. Show me. Show me your world.
Darla: Close your eyes.
Buffy: I want you to get a message to Angel for me. Tell him I'm done waiting. I'm taking the fight to him. You got that? You need me to write it down for you?(Slays vamp) Ok. I'll tell him myself.
Xander: Oh yeah, that's right, finals.
Buffy: Look on the bright side. It'll all be over soon.
Angelus:Yes my love. It will.
Snyder:These public displays of affection are not acceptable. It's not an orgy people. It's a classroom.
Buffy:Yeah. Where they teach lunch.
Snyder: Just give me a reason to kick you out Summers. Just give me a reason.
Cordelia:How bout' because he's some tiny, impitent nazi with a bug up his butt the size of an emu.
Buffy:Sums it up.
Dru:(1860) No. I want to be good.
Angelus: We all do at first but the world doesn't work that way.
Angelus:You can see all that in your head?
Spike:No you ninny. She read it in the morning paper.
Buffy:Hold that thought. (Buffy reaches over to pick up fallen pencil, and passes disk) Okay I'm learn girl.
Willow:Okay, so see here...
Buffy:Deja vou.
Willow:Really?
Buffy:Yeah. I have this perfect memory of the pencil and... (picks up yellow disk) Oh. You dropped this.
Willow:It's not mine. It must be something of Ms.Calendar's.
Buffy:Does that say restoration?
Willow: Thats one of her spells I think. Ms. Calendar wasn't a practicing witch. But she did have...
Buffy:Willow.
Willow:Oh boy. Oh boy.
Man(Gypsy):(In 1898)It hurts. yes? Good. It will hurt more.
Angel:Where am I?
Man(Gypsy):You don't remember. Everything you've done for 100 years. In a moment you will. The face of everyone you killed. Our daughters face. They will haunt you. And you will know what true suffering is.
Angel:Killed? I...I don't...No...No...No...
Xander:For those of you who have just tuned in. Everyone here is a crazy person. So the spell might restore Angel's humanity. Well here's an interesting angle. Who cares?!
Buffy:I care.
Xander:Is that right?
Giles:Let's not lose our perspective here Xander.
Xander:I'm a perspective guy. Angel's a killer.
Willow:Xander.
Buffy:It's not that simple.
Xander: What all is forgiven? What's the matter with you people?....Angel needs to die.
Giles:Curing Angel seems to have been Jenny's last wish.
Xander:Yeah well, Jenny's dead. (Xander and Giles argue)
Buffy:Stop it! Stop it!
Willow:What do you want to do?
Buffy:I don't know. What happened to Angel wasn't his fault.
Xander:Yeah but what happened to Ms. Calendar is. You can paint this any way you want. But the way I see it is you want to forget all about Ms. Calendar's death so you can get your boyfriend back.
Spike:It's a big rock. I can't wait to tell my friends that I have a rock this big.
Giles:With one breath Akathila will create a vortex, a whirlpool that will pull everything on earth into the dimension where all non demon life will suffer horrible and eternal torment.
Whistler:(1996) She's going to have it tough that slayer. She's just a kid. The world is full of bad things.
Angel:I want to help her. I want to be someone.
Whistler:Look at you. She must be prettier than the last slayer. This isn't going to be easy. The more you live in this world, the more you see how far from it you really are. And this is dangerous work. Right now you couldn't go three rounds on a fruit fly.
Angel:I want to learn from you.
Whistler:Alright.
Angel:But I don't want to dress like you.
Kendra:Here in case the curse does not succeed. This is my lucky stick. I have slayed many vampires with it. I call it Mr. Pointy.
Buffy:You named your stick?
Kendra:Yes.
Buffy:Come on. Let's finish this. You and me.
Angelus:You never learn do you? This wasn't about you? This was never about you. (Buffy runs to the school) And you fall for it every single time!
Whistler:Bottom line is even if you see them coming, you're not ready for the big moment. No one asked for their life to change. But it does. So what are we? Helpless? Puppets? No. The big moments are going to come, you can't help that. It's what you do afterwards that counts. That's when you find out who you are. You'll see what I mean.
"Becoming"(Part 2)
Snyder:Buffy Summers. If there's trouble she's behind it.
Buffy:You stupid little troll. You have no idea!
Spike:I want Dru back. I want it like the way it was before he came back. The way she acts around him.
Buffy:You're pathetic! I lost a friend tonight!
Spike:I wasn't in that raiding party.
Buffy: And I may lose more. The whole world may be sucked into hell and you want my halp because your girlfriend's a big ho?! I'm going to take this opportuinity to not care.
Xander:Come on Will. Look you don't have a choice here, Wake up. I need you. I mean, how am I gonna pass Trig, ya know? And who am I going to call every night and talk about everything we did all day? You're my best friend. You've always... I love you. Willow?
Willow:Oz?
Mom:(Just saw Buffy slay vamp) Buffy, what is going on?
Buffy:Mom, I'm a vampire slayer.
Willow:I''m sorry. I didn't get to cure Angel.
Buffy:Don't be. It just wasn't meant to be. I know I'm never going to get him back the way he was. It just makes it easier.
Mom:Have we met?
Spike:Um... You hit me with an ax one time. Remember, Get the hell away from my daughter?
Mom:Oh.
Buffy:She killed Kendra!
Spike:Dru bagged a slayer?! She didn't tell me. Eh. Good for her! Though not from your perspective, I suppose.
Buffy:I told you I'm a vampire slayer.
Mom:Well, I just don't accept that.
Buffy:Open your eyes mom! What do you think has been going on for the past two years? The fights. The weird occurences. How many times have you washed blood out of my clothing? And you still haven't figured it out?
Mom:Well, it stops now!
Buffy:No, it doesn't stop! It never stops. Do you think I choose to be like this? Do you have any idea how lonely it is? How dangerous? I would love to be upstairs watching TV or gossiping about boys or God even studying! But I have to save the world...again.
Mom:You walk out of this house don't even think about coming back! (Buffy leaves)
Willow:I want to try again.
Oz:Try what?
Willow:The curse. We never go to finish it. Maybe we can restore Angel's soul.
Buffy:You know I didn't do it. The police will figure it out.
Snyder:In case you haven't noticed the police of Sunnydale are deeply stupid. It doesn't matter anyway. Whatever they find. You've proved too much of a liability for this school. These are the moments you wan to savor. You wish time would sop so you could play them over and over again. You're expelled.
Buffy:You never, ever got a single date in high school, did you?
Snyder:You're point being?(Buffy leaves) It's Snyder. Tell the mayor I've got good news.
Buffy:Tell me how to use it.
Whistler:Angel is the key. His blood will open the door to hell. Acathala opens his mouth. Creates a vortex. Then only Angel's blood will close it. One blow will send them both back to hell. But I strongly suggest you get there before that happens, because the faster you kill Angel, the easier it's going to be on you.
Buffy:Don't worry about me.
Whistler:It's all on the line here, kid.
Buffy:I can deal. I've got nothing left to loose.
Whistler:Wrong kid. You got one more thing.
Angelus:Do you really think you can take us all on?
Buffy:No I don't. (Spike rises out of wheelchair and beats Angelus to the ground with a pipe)
Spike:Painful, isn't it?
Spike:I don't want to hurt you baby. (knocks out Dru) Doesn't mean I won't.
Giles:You're not real.
Xander:Sure I'm real.
Giles:It's a trick. They get inside my head. Make me see things I want to see.
Xander:Then why would they make you see me?
Giles:Right. Let's go.
Angelus:My boy Akathala here's about to wake up. You're going to hell.
Buffy:Save me a seat.
Spike:God, he's going to kill her! Oh well.
Angelus:Now that's everything, huh? No weapons. No friends. No hope. Take all that away...and what's left? (Thrusts his sword at Buffy's head)
Buffy:(Buffy stops the sword with her hands) Me.
Angel:(w/ soul again) Buffy? What's going on? Where are we? I... I don't remember.
Buffy:Angel.
Angel:You're hurt. Oh Buffy... god. I feel like I haven't seen you in months. Oh god everythings so muddled. I oh. Oh, Buffy. What's happening?
Buffy:Shh... Don't worry about it. (they kiss)I love you.
Angel:I love you.
Buffy:Close your eyes. (They kiss again, Buffy cries) (Buffy then stabs him in his gut(not heart) and Angel is sucked into hell)
Angel:Buffy...
"Anne"
(Buffy's Dream)
Buffy: How did you find me here?
Angel: If I was blind I would see you.
Buffy: Stay with me.
Angel: Forever. That's the whole point. I'll never leave. Not even if you kill me.
Willow: That's right big boy. Come and get it.
Xander: And the second problem I'm having... "Come and get it big boy?"
Willow: Well...Well, the slayer always says a pun or a witty play on words, and I think it throws the vampires off and it makes them frightened because I'm wisecracking. Okay, I really didn't have a chance to work on that one but you try it every time.
Cordelia: Where do I hide?
Xander:You don't hide you're bait. Go act baity.
Demon:Who are you?
Buffy: I'm Buffy, the vampire slayer. And you are?
