Charisma Carpenter - Cordelia/Doyle #4: Because he gave her the only thing he had - Page 7

The five I suggested are on your list too so I think they should definitely be included.

#2, #3, #36, #39, #42

That means we need to decide on 5 mores scenes. Anyone else want to chime in?

**tootyfnfrooty** · 06-11-2008, 08:13 PM

i guess i will wait to narrow my list to see if 5 more match up

shutterbug579 · 06-12-2008, 04:43 PM

We can give it another day or so and if no one else chimes in we'll go with the list of 11.

**Fearlessღ** · 06-12-2008, 05:05 PM

I think that's a good list to go off of

**tootyfnfrooty** · 06-13-2008, 06:11 AM

sounds good

#2

Cordelia: "They're finally in."
Doyle: "They're in."
Angel: "Okay…?"
Cordelia: "Your cards."
Doyle: "The cards."
Cordelia: "Your calling cards to leave with people so they know how to reach you."
Doyle: "Great idea! Calling cards. It's not like you have a signal folks can shine in the sky when ever they need help, you know?"
Angel: "Hey, look at that, there is our number. It's right next to a… a um - a - a butterfly?"
Doyle: "It's obviously not a butterfly, you idiot. It's a - a bird. No, no, wait, it's an owl. A - a bird that hunts at night. Brilliant! It's a- a…"
Cordelia: "It's an angel!"
Angel: "An angel. Right. It's an angel!"
Doyle: "Brilliant. So obvious and so clever on so many levels…"
Cordy: "Oh, shut up!"

#3

Cordelia: "Hi. Being harassed by someone or something? Just dial us up, day or night. (to the guy) You look troubled. Are you troubled - or is that just your lazy eye? - Anyway, call us, we are very discreet. Hi, how are you?"
Doyle: "Hey, hey, hey! This isn't a marketing seminar here, princess. You've got to stay a bit more below radar."
Cordelia: "What radar?"
Doyle: "The police? You know the service our friend Angel provides - might put some people in mind of the V-word."
Cordelia: "Vampire?"
Doyle: "No, Vigilante. You know there are laws against this. You need to chat people up a little more casual like. You know, hi, what's your name? How's life treatin' ye? What's that you say? Minions from hell gettin' you down?"
Cordelia: "I'm an actress, a student of the human animal. I don't need to talk to people to know their story."
Turns to point at guy dancing.
Cordy: "You see jazz-hands over there? Mama's boy. Peter Pan complex. (points at a short haired blonde) Self-absorbed closet-dud, with a big 'the world owes me' chip on her shoulder. (points to Sharon leaving with Kevin) Check out Sarah-plain-and-tall. Has or comes from big money."
Doyle: "How do you know all that?"
Cordy: "Well, you've got to be rich to snag the Calvin Kline model she's leaving with."
Doyle: "Yeah, well, they're all riveting insights and such, but we need to find someone that's in trouble?"

#13

Cordelia is walking into the office carrying the mail.
Cordy: "Uh, look at all these bills: - water, - power, - and my perennial favorite: the rent. What am I missing?"
Doyle: "Not a thing I can see."
Cordy: "Doyle, try to pay attention."
Doyle: "I am paying attention princess. We just need the income to pay for the outgo around here."
Cordy: "Exactly! You know? This is a business and we should be running it like one. We should be charging. I know Angel has been working day and night helping people fight their personal demons, but I need a raise!"
Doyle: "A raise? What, you've been working for him for like 20 minutes?"
Cordy: "A month, and I have needs."
Doyle: "Needs."
Cordy: "A person needs certain - designer - things."
Doyle: "Personally I don't think you need much in the way of clothes. But you are right, and I do agree. Angel needs to start charging. He just hates bringing up the finances with the clients. He likes playing the hero, - walking off into the dark with his long coat flowing behind him in a mysterious and attractive way."
Cordy: "Is this a private moment? Because I can leave you alone."
Doyle: "No, no, I'm not saying *I'm* attracted. I'm just saying he's projecting a certain kind of image and asking for money isn't part of it. He's sensitive about that."
Cordy: "Oh, here he comes. Ok, we're going to stand up to him."
Doyle stands up: "Yup, we're standing up."
Cordy: "Just as soon as he's had his coffee."
Dole: "Right."

#17

Doyle: "Well, that didn't go so badly."
Cordy: "See, you can save damsel and make decent money. Is this a great country or what?!"
Doyle: "Let's march down to the bank and deposit this beauty."
Angel: "You guys go ahead. I think I'll stay here and not burst into flames."
Doyle: "Oh, right, you're pretty much the night deposit guy. Still, cause to celebrate."
Cordy: "You think everything's a cause to celebrate. We could use more of these."
Doyle: "And we'll have more of these soon."
Cordy: "We need more of these now. Have a vision."
Doyle: "I can't just perform on demand."
Cordy: "We need the clients. Have a vision."
Doyle: "That money has corrupted you."
Cordy: "If I hit you on the head, will you have a vision?"
Doyle: "Get away from me. You're insane."
Cordy: "Am not. Now will you have a vision?"

#18

Cut to Angel's office at night. Cordelia is holding up a torn white trash bag.
Cordy: "I've had it with these cheap trash bags! They leak and break and end up costing us more!"
Doyle: "I believe it!"
Cordy: "Yeah, It was a great audition! I was all about things leaking. How could they not pick me?"
Doyle: "They don't know what they missed."
Telephone rings.
Cordy: "They gave it to a blonde that showed up in a skintight leather cat suit. She is supposed to be a housewife. She looked ridiculous. She looked like cat-woman taking out the cat-trash."
Doyle: "Are you going to answer the phone?"
Angel: "Good question."
Cordy: "Oh, yeah, right. Oh, the machine got it."
Machine in Cordy's voice: "Angel Investigations. We help the hopeless. If that's you leave a message. (Beep)"
Aura: "Hey, Cordy. It's Aura. Just wanted to check in, you know see how you were doing. Oh, you would not believe what's going on in Sunnydale!"
Cordy just straightens stuff on her desk, makes no move to pick up the phone.
Doyle: "You don't want to talk to her?"
Cordy: "No, not just yet. She is just going to ask me where I'm living and how the acting is going, and just not up to leading the parade of pain. I'll do it when things get better."
Doyle: "Well, I don't know if I can help with the acting, but about the apartment.."
Cordy: "What?"
Doyle: "Well, if you ever want to - I don't know - stay a night away form the place - maybe give me a call."
Cordy: "Well, stranger things have happened. No wait, they really haven't. I'll see you tomorrow. Bye, Angel, I'm taking off."

#20

Doyle: "Hey, Cordy, you look great by the way."
Cordy: "I wouldn't know. The man doesn't even have a mirror. Like it would kill him to not see himself?"
Doyle: "Listen, I was wondering if anybody called lately? Maybe asking about me or maybe wanting my address?"
Cordy: "Oh, yeah. Yesterday your cousin called, with one of those names from your part of England."
Doyle: "My part of England?"
Cordy: "Conner or Fergus - did he find you?"
Doyle: "Yeah, he did, all right. But you see, a little ah - warning might have been nice, give a fella a chance to neat the place up, you know?"
Cordy: "Jeez, I just helped the guy as a favor to you. Maybe next time I won't bother."
Doyle: "Well, it's not like you even have to pick up the phone. You just let your friend Aura hang there."
Cordy: "Ok, here's an idea: How about you make me a list of people you're too good to talk to."

#28

Kate: "We all need - so much."
Cordy to Doyle: "What's her deal? Too much..."
Doyle: "Thumb sucking?"
Cordy: "Alcohol! Dummy."
Doyle: "Don't look at me like that. I'm not the one that needs to brush up on their finger pantomime. It's something to do with the training she had at work."
Kate: "Some one's got a crush."
Doyle: "What?"
Kate: "It's right there, how he feels about you. And you don't know what to do about it."
Cordy: "Please! We just joke around."
Kate: "Where is the truth? Where is the truth? He is hiding behind Mr. Humor. I mean, look at - look at Doyle.. really look at him, what do you see?"
Cordy: "A bad double-poly blend?"
Kate: "That's defense, Cordelia. Maybe you should open your heart to a new possibility!"
Doyle: "Hey, you know, she's starting to make some sense..."
Cordy: "Angel!"

#36

Cordy: "When did he get back?"
Doyle: "Late last night."
Cordy: "And?"
Doyle: "Ah, he seemed fine."
Cordy: "He saw Buffy. He was in Sunnydale for three days, tracking her and that thingymagiggy you saw in your vision. Where is the crabby scowl, the morbid gloom? This just means that it cut deeper then usual. Batten down the hatches, here comes Hurricane Buffy."
Doyle: "You think? Maybe he's over her."
Cordy: "You have so much to learn little Irish man."

#39

Doyle: "Woah, when they fight.."
Cordy: "Oh, my God!"
Doyle: "What?"
Cordy : "She killed him! Oops! My bad. It's just dust I forgot to sweep under the rug."
Doyle: "What, are you trying to give me a heart attack?"
Cordy: "Hey, don't blame me if he's too cheap to hire a Cleaning Lady!"

#42

Angel: " I'm the what?"
Cordy: "The Dark Avenger."
Angel: "I'm the Dark Avenger."
Cordy: "I know, it's perfect! We can do it ourselves on High 8. I'll charm a post-production house into doing the effects and... Look, I know a little something about self-promotion, Angel, and I'm telling you one commercial like this could get us out of the red - or the black - or which ever one means we're broke, because that's us. So what? Buffy blows into to town and puts you into a permanent funk and I'm just supposed to stand by and watch our business go belly up?"
Doyle: "He's not entirely wrong, you know? Look, all I'm saying is advertising a superhero that can't really go out in the daylight might raise vampire suspicions, not to mention our pesky lack of an investigator's license."
Cordy: "And who needs a license when we have no clients?"
Doyle: "We'll manage, princess. We always do."
Cordy: "We will if we project the right image. And now I'm suddenly thinking that Angel is all wrong for this commercial! He is a larger-than-life character, way to Braveheart for Joe-Couch-potato to relate to. We need someone who's - average, (looks Doyle up and down), run of the mill, ordinary. You're perfect."
Doyle: "While I appreciate the compliment, it's just..."
Cordy: "Come over here into the light, and let's see if we can create some cheekbones."
Doyle: "Cordelia, I'm not the photogenic type. Plus I get dry mouth."
Cordy: "Excuse me? This is not a negotiation. This is a necessity. Our boss is in a funk. You *know* that he's only happy when he's fighting evil. Now let's drum up some!"
Doyle: "I don't know what we need evil for when we got you right here."
Cordy: "I heard that!"

#46

Doyle: "What?"
Cordy: "You're alive!"
Doyle: "And you're not happy?"
Cordy: "We were worried."
Doyle: "Oh. Well, its all going to be okay. (Cordy slaps him) What was that for?"
Cordy: "Why didn't you tell me that you were half demon? I thought we agreed that secrets are bad!"
Doyle: "I wanted to tell you. I was afraid. I thought if I did, you'd reject me."
Cordy: "I've rejected you way before now! So, you're half demon. Big Whoop! I can't believe you'd think I'd care about that. I mean, I work for a vampire! Hello?"
Doyle: "It's true. I just..."
Cordy: "What do you think I am, superficial? - So you're half demon. That's so far down the list, way under 'short' and 'poor'! - Is there anything else I should know?"
Doyle: "The half demons thing is pretty much my big secret."
Cordy: "Good. That's out. It's done. - Would you ask me out to dinner already?"
Doyle: "Yeah? Cordelia. Would you like..."
Cordy: "It's Angel!"

Yeah. I haven't watched season one in a long time, but I did love Doyle/Cordelia's relationship, despite being a Cangel.
