Episode Quotes
Cordelia: (about the hotel) Seventy years of violence, mayhem and paranoia. Bad vibes.
Angel: We're moving in.
Cordelia: I mean, a few throw pillows and what's not to love?
Judy: Uhm - uhm - my-my boyfriend, he's kind of the jealous type...
Angel: Maybe you shouldn't go wandering into other men's rooms.
(fighting a demon)
Angel: Watch his tentacles!
Cordelia: Excuse me?
Wesley: Tentacles.
Cordelia: Oh.
Cordelia: Yep, it's not that vampires don't photograph. It's just that they don't photograph well.
Wesley: Angel, you don't find me especially paranoid, do you?
Angel: Not especially.
Wesley: Thank God. I was worried.
Cordelia: It's kind of like a puzzle. The "who died horribly because Angel screwed up fifty years ago?" game.
Wesley: I've been accused of a great many things in my time but paranoid has never been one of them. Unless people have been saying it behind my back.
