"Angel" (1.7)

-Zachary, I've got some good news and some bad news. Good news: The Master totally misses you. Bad news: He misses you because you got dusted by the Slayer. Tough break, kid. Wait! Now he's sending The Three after Buffy. You will be avenged, Zachary!

-You can already feel the sparks between Cordelia and Xander.

-Watch out, Buffy. Here comes The Three, never to be confused with The Trio. For Zachary!

-Buffy and Angel double-team! You know what they say--the couple that fights vampires together... um, has a long and insanely complicated relationship together. Really rolls off the tongue, that one.

-Seriously? That's really the first time The Three has failed in battle? Maybe it's not just that they failed; it's that they failed Zachary. Go ahead, Darla. Dust 'em. Get your jollies while you can.

-Quarterstaff training: Buffy, 1; Giles, traction.

-Buffy goes in for the smooch... she shoots... she scores! Wait a minute... it looks like... yes, she's sucking face with a vampire. Well, that's awkward.

-According to Giles, a vampire is always a demon at the core and there's no halfway. Hm. We'll see about that.

-Buffy and her thing for umpires. That's gonna get her in trouble one day.

-Darla, you might want to think that plan through just a little more. There are a couple of holes and... No? Okey dokey.

-Hm. Angel says to Darla, "the last time I saw you you, it was kimonos." The last time they saw each other was during The Boxer Rebellion in China, not Japan. Ah, well. He's a dude, and as the comment pertains to fashion, I suppose I'll let it slide.

-Uh oh. Angel's trying to resist Joyce's bloody neck. Watch Boreanaz act really, really hard. Carefully, buddy. You might strain something.

-1630 Revello Drive. I think we only hear Buffy say the address twice, and both times she's calling 911 for her mom. Poor Joyce. So often relegated to collateral damage.

-Joyce and Giles are doing some hospital bonding. I wonder what Buffy's life would have been like if they had gotten together for reals.

-I love what wearing the vamp teeth does to the actor's voices. They all sound like they're trying to talk through a mouthful of marbles.

-Don't worry, Darla. It's only a mild case of the deadsies. Just give it a few years. You'll be back and right as rain. Sort of.

-WTF? The Master just said Darla was his favorite. What about Zachary?!

-"Mmm, Angel. I love that cologne. What is it called?"

"Eau de Charred Flesh."

"Coolio. Laters!"
