Chapter 6 :
Cordelia's omelet.
Hyperion- 8:00 p.m. Principal room. Focus more and more on the office, the door is open and the place is dark. Suddenly the phone rings. The answering machine starts off. Focus on the phone.
ANSWERING MACHINE: (Cordelia's voice)
Angel investigation we help the helpless...
LORNE: (phone voice)
Angel cakes, it's Lorne pick up!
A hand grabs the phone. Focus on Angel.
ANGEL:
Lorne...yes...I don't know she's probably out...how is Connor?.......... yeah, but you didn't kill him or let him in the board of the road.... You are on the site?..........so by.... - Lorne rings off before he can say the end of the word.
Angel replaces the receiver. He stretches his shoulders when Cordelia bursts in.
CORDELIA:
You won't believe who bought my apartment!
Angel opens his mouth but...
CORDELIA:
Wolfram and Hart!
ANGEL:
It was predictable. They tried to buy the hotel the last year when we leaved to Pylea.
CORDELIA:
Oh, yeah! Pylea, I want go back in Pylea - with an imploring face. Angel smiles. And the worst it's anybody lives in. It's empty, I mean without count Dennis, Oh! My god! Poor Dennis he is alone!
ANGEL:
That signified you are obligated to stay here. - happy.
CORDELIA (don't listening Angel at all)
I can't do that to Dennis. They will see who I am. I suffered for this apartment. Cordelia Chase didn't say her last word!
She leaves the hotel like ready for the war. Angel remains alone. Focus on his face. He is astounded.
ANGEL:
Okay, so I go back to sleep.
CUT TO: Wesley's building. - hallway- evening. Cordelia arrives to Wesley's door. She knocks on the door, no answer, she does it again.
CORDELIA: (opening the door)
Wesley, it's me CORDELIA. - articulating like if Wesley doesn't remember who she is.
She enters, looks around, nobody's here.
CORDELIA:
Wesley!
She goes for sit down, for waiting him, next to the desk when we hear a little noise on the floor. She bends down, looks. It's the egg.
CORDELIA: (picking up the rests)
CRAP!! -looking her fingers. They are sticky. What the hell that is?!! - grimacing.
She hears somebody enters in the apartment. She takes up quickly hiding the egg's shell behind her back.
CORDELIA: (trying to see)
Wesley!
It's Lilah.
LILAH: (surprising)
Cordelia.
CORDELIA: (disappointed)
Oh, it's you....where Wesley is?
LILAH: (looking at Cordelia coldly)
He gots trouble. He asked me to come here recover something for him.
CORDELIA:
Okay, I don't want to know your business.
LILAH: (looking on the desk)
It's good 'cause I don't want to you in my business. Damn! Where is it?!!
Cordelia brings her hands back front of her, and looks the sticky shell. But keeps her hands down at Lilah's view.
CORDELIA:
Why, what's going on?
LILAH:
I thank you didn't want to be mix in our business.
CORDELIA: (scornfully)
In fact I said I didn't want to KNOW your business, so?
LILAH: (resigned)
Well, Wes stole this egg, besides, I told him "don't do that" but he never listen to me.
CORDELIA:
Why! - mocking.
LILAH:
Anyway-articulating- now the demon's female wants her egg back, so she captured Wesley and he called me for bring it to him. But it's not here. -looking the desk again.
CORDELIA: (embarrassed)
Ho, ho! That couldn't be that, by chance? -showing the shell.
LILAH: (upset)
You broke it!!?!! Dammit, what's wrong with you?! You enter at the people and you break their eggs!?
CORDELIA:
It was an accident!
LILAH:
Yeah, like your presence on this planet.
CORDELIA:
Why Wesley had an egg? This guy can't do some normal stuff, no!, now he steals eggs!
LILAH:
It was for you.
CORDELIA:
Wesley wanted to offer me an egg? -confused.
LILAH:
It was for some spell for discover why you came back or something in this taste.
CORDELIA:
Oh.
LILAH:
Yes, you can say that. Well, call your boyfriend, you have to tell him to mend his girlfriend's mistake.
CORDELIA:
Angel is not....why I talk about that with you. I don't know if Angel will cry with joy to help Wesley, and your W&H guys?
LILAH:
I explain to them during three hours that the relation between me and Wes wasn't about job, so if now I ask them some help for save him, 'cause he is prisoner of a female demon who wants her egg back, this same egg that was for help Cordelia Chase the girl who works in the other side..
CORDELIA:
What, they will refuse?-sarcastically.
LILAH:
No, they will ask me to do transcripts about all my future conversations with Wes, not mean that we talk a lot we prefer...
CORDELIA:
OK, I gottcha. So I go search Angel, with hope that on the road I will find something to tell him about my visit to Wesley and you stay here.
CUT TO: Hyperion-evening late. Angel goes down the stairs.
ANGEL:
Cordelia!! Cordelia!!! - he looks around- She's not come back. Please don't tell me she goes to Wolfram and hart makes a scandal for takes her apartment back. -he smiles- no, she's not so stupid - he grimaces.
He takes his jacket and goes out by the front door. Cordelia arrives by the back door.
CORDELIA:
ANGEL!!! ANGEL!!! -looking around- damn, never there!
She goes out by the back door. In this moment Angel comes back by the front door. He goes in his office, takes his cell phone, and putts it in his pocket. He stops him and looks around pensively.
ANGEL:
Cordelia!
He sighs and goes out.
CUT TO: Wesley's apartment. Cordelia comes in. Lilah gets up and looks at her.
LILAH:
Where is Angel?
CORDELIA:
I didn't find him.
LILAH:
What? What we do?
Cordelia directs her toward Wesley's closet, she opens it and takes weapons.
CORDELIA: (throwing an axe to Lilah who catches it awkwardly)
We will go by ourselves.
LILAH:
You're kidding.
CORDELIA:
Yes, you right -Lilah relaxes- you need to get change. You can't fight demon in skirt and stiletto heels.
LILAH:
I don't gonna go fight demons at all; It's not in my competence, I make plans.
CORDELIA:
Yeah, you do and it's certainly for that that Wolfram & Hart never win. -Lilah smirks - you will add that in your competence 'cause Wesley it's your lover, I mean he's waiting for you right now.
LILAH:
We are not so close.
CORDELIA:
Oh, courage Lilah, I gonna show you what's a real woman is.
PC: Lilah & Cordelia will go save Wesley. Will Cordelia finally take her apartment back? Chapter 7: Gunn and Fred arrive at the meeting.
