Sanctuary
Cordelia: Well, if it's any consolation it really does look like you were - tortured by a much larger woman.
Angel: He'll come around.
Cordelia: Wesley? - Sure! - People always get a little funny right after they've been sadistically tortured.
Kendrick: Come on, Kate. Everybody knows you've gone all Scully. - Anytime one of these weird cases crosses anyone's desk - you're always there. What's going on with you?
Kate: Scully is the skeptic.
Kendrick: Huh?
Kate: Mulder is the believer. Scully is the skeptic.
Kendrick: Scully is the chick, right?
Kate: Yes. - But she's not the one that wants to believe.
Kendrick: And you wanna believe.
Kate: Oh, I already believe. - That's the problem.
Angel: Where are you gonna go? Back out in that darkness? I once told you that you didn't have to go out in that darkness. Remember? That it was your choice. Well, you chose. - You thought that you could just touch it. That you'd be okay. - Five by five, right, Faith? - But it swallowed you whole. - So tell me - how did you like it?
* She hits him - hard *
Faith: Help me?
Angel: Yeah.
Collins: The Council is willing to reinstate you - return you to your rightful position as Watcher. - That was a nasty business back in Sunnydale, but - nobody blames you.
Wesley: Really. Because I rather got the impression they did when they sacked me.
Faith: So, how does this - work?
Angel: There is no real simple answer to that. - I won't lie to you and tell you that it'll be easy - because it won't be. - Just because you've decided to change doesn't mean that the world is ready for you to. - The truth is - no matter how much you suffer, no matter how many good deeds you do to try to 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 - and may be for the rest of your life.
* Faith points at Microwave *
Faith: So how does this work?
Faith: There are some things you can't take back, no matter how sorry you are, right?
Angel: Yeah, there are. I've got some experience in that area.
Faith: Right. And you've been doing this for a hundred years! I'm not gonna make it through the next ten minutes.
Angel: So make it through the next five, the next minute.
Faith: I don't think I can.
Angel: Yes, you can.
Faith: God, it hurts. I hate that it hurts like this.
Angel: Oh well, it's supposed to hurt. All that pain, all that suffering you caused is coming back on you. Feel it! Deal with it! Then maybe you've got a shot at being free.
Faith: I've got to be the first Slayer in history sponsored by a vampire.
Lilah: Just so we're clear - we won't be putting any of this down on paper. This is strictly - a handshake deal.
Lindsey: Not that it is necessary for you to have hands for us to do business with you.
Lilah: That was species-ist of me.
Faith: Buffy... I'm sor...
Buffy: Apologize to me and I will beat you to death.
Faith: Go ahead.
Lee: This is ridiculous. The first assassin kills the second assassin - sent to kill the first assassin, - who didn't assassinate anyone until we hired - the second assassin to assassinate the first assassin.
Lindsay: Alright. This obviously isn't working.
Lilah: You think?
Buffy: She's playing you. She tried to kill you!
Angel: That was just - that was just a cry for help.
Buffy: A cry for help is when you say 'help' in a loud voice.
Wesley: Angel, it wasn't for her.
Angel: I know.
Wesley: It's because I trust you... Well, more than three gun-toting maniacs at any rate.
Buffy: You're not gonna run, Faith.
Faith: What do you wanna do? You're gonna throw me off the roof - again?
Buffy: Any reason why I shouldn't?
Faith: There is nothing I can do for you, B. I can't ever make it right.
Faith: Angel said there was no way you were gonna give me a chance.
Buffy: I gave you every chance! I tried so hard to help you, and you spat on me. My life was just soemthing 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.
Faith: And you can't stand that. You're all about control. You have no idea what it's like on the other side! Where nothing's in control, nothing makes sense! There is just pain and hate and nothing you do means anything. You can't even...
Buffy: Shut up!
Faith: Just tell me how to make it better.
Faith: I'd like to make a confession.
Angel: Buffy, this wasn't about you! This was about saving somebody's soul. That's what I do here, and you're not a part of it. - That was your idea, remember? We stay away from each other.
Buffy: I came here because you were in danger.
Angel: I'm in danger every day. You came because of Faith. You were looking for vengeance.
Buffy: I have a right to it.
Angel: Not in my city.
Angel: I didn't do it. - Faith did.
Wesley: I hope she is strong enough to make it. - Peace is not an easy thing to find.
Angel: She has a chance.
