Doyle: It’s going to be different this time.
Rieff: Why? Because your friend is the promised one? So you know it’s not true.
Doyle: No, I don’t. I don’t know anything about your people’s myths and legends. But I do know Angel, and he’s the genuine article.
Rieff: My hero.
Doyle: Yeah, that’s exactly what he is. And your people can call him ‘the promised one’ or the ‘dark avenger’, what does it matter?
Rieff: It matters because it’s a lie!
Doyle: They put their faith in something, Rieff. You don’t have to if you don’t want to. Maybe Angel doesn’t know what he’s doing. It’s possible. But the other option: losing yourself somewhere, hoping it all goes away, I know that never works. How about we go find your family?
I only wish we could have learned more about Doyle’s past, most of it was really just hinted at. Still, kudos to him, he won over Rieff in the end here.

I’m the Dark Avenger (“Angel” Gag Reel)
From Hero (Angel, Season 1). Cordy’s imagined AI advertisement….but DB totally failed to keep a straight face in this take
Haha, he does an eyebrow thing at the end :D

Well, if it’s a fight they want—can’t someone else give it to them?

(Angel, Season 1: Hero)

Cordy:
Maybe if we got [Angel] a costume!
-
Doyle:
A costume?
-
Cordy:
Well, the guy's a bona fide hero! Would it kill him to put on some tights and a cape and garner us a little free publicity?
-
Doyle:
I don't see Angel putting on some tights and--oh, now I do, and it's really disturbing.
-
Cordy:
[Shooting this advertisement] 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:
[under his breath] I don't know what we need evil for when we've got you right here.
-
Cordy:
I heard that!
A Doyle tribute to the awesome song “Hero” by Chad Kroeger and Josey Scott (used in the first Spider-Man movie). Ooh, dear. Some characters stay with you forever, don’t they?
“Hero” by Robert J. Kral (vocals by Elin Carson)
Medley of music from the Season One Episode “Hero” (Doyle’s final episode), starting from the point where he finds the group of demons murdered by the Scourge and ending with the music played during his sacrifice.
Ah, no, I’m starting to tear up again….this is just too sad!

Doyle:
Who's Aura?
-
Angel:
I think she's one of Cordelia's group. People called them the Cordettes. Bunch of girls from wealthy families. They ruled the high school, decided what was in, who was popular. It was like the Soviet Secret Police...if they cared a lot about shoes.

Cordelia:
[sits beside Doyle] You're gonna get through this, Doyle. Nice guys don't always finish last.
-
Doyle:
...You think I'm a nice guy?
-
Cordelia:
I think it, I say it. It's my way.
