CORDELIA: Okay, Gunn's about to do a really stupid thing.
WESLEY: What did he say?
CORDELIA: Just that in order to find out if the police have been brutalizing and killing people in Anne's neighborhood, he's going to videotape the cops trying to brutalize and kill him.
WESLEY: You can't be serious.
CORDELIA: Nothing says 'Aha, I'm on to you' like being on the receiving end of a vicious police beating.
WESLEY: You couldn't stop him?
CORDELIA: Hello! Gunn, stubborn, synonyms.
WESLEY: That can't be his plan, can it? I mean, it's - really a dumb plan.
CORDELIA: Hey, Gunn graduated with a major in dumb planning from Angel University. He sat at the feet of the master and learned well how to plan dumbly.
