From "In the Dark":
ANGEL
Oz.
OZ
Angel.
The two barely nod to each other in greeting.
ANGEL
Nice surprise.
OZ
Thanks.
ANGEL
Staying long?
OZ
Few days.
DOYLE
They always like this?
OZ
No, we're usually laconic.
ANGEL
So. Good to see you.
Aimee, it is from Angel, "In The Dark."
(deleting the inevitable and poorly-formatted x-post)
Aims, I think you were mixing it with Wash's line: "Once, I was laconic."

Don't say that cause would make Joe right and me NSM right.
"Zoe's terse. I can be terse. Once in flight school I was laconic."

Wild At Heart,
Buffy tells Oz something like, "Now would be a good time for your trademark stoicism."
"Zoe's terse. I can be terse. Once in flight school I was laconic."
Thaaaaat's it! I knew the word "terse" was involved somehow.
They just aired "Hero" on TNT, and I didn't realize until the middle of it that I'd avoided rewatching since Glenn Quinn's death. I thought it was a fairly lackluster episode when I first saw it, but man does that ending get rougher in light of what happened afterwards.
Wow, remember how cute and natural the budding romance between Doyle and Cordy was? What happened to that organic, believable approach to relationships in later seasons?
