ANNE: Thanks for coming by, Gunn.

GUNN: You know I've got your back. I haven't seen this place in forever.

ANNE: Yeah, it's been a while.

(Angel watches from the corner as they enter the building.)

RAY: (inside the shelter, to Gunn) Look, the cops are tripping, G.

GUNN: Define tripping for me.

GIRL: Out for blood. Les here got her arm busted up.

RAY: The cops went to stop me the other night. He went for his gun, looking to put a cap in my ass, man!

ANNE: It's outrageous. These cops are gonna kill someone. We have to do something about this.

GUNN: Anne, you think you could give us a minute?

ANNE: Yeah. I have some paperwork I could do. (She leaves.)

GUNN: You guys try to play her?

GIRL: What?

RAY: No way, G.

GUNN: Anne's no fool, but she's got a blind spot. She wants to trust you all. Now, if I find out you're taking advantage of that...

RAY: This ain't no scam, G. We're the victims, man!

GUNN: Victims. Right. So what was you doing when this cop pulled his piece on you?

RAY: Absolutely nothing.

GUNN: Oh, so I haven't seen you on Normandy and Fifth dealing? You tryin' to tell me that wasn't you I seen?

RAY: That's ancient history, man. I gave that up.

GUNN: Well, do the cops know that? 'cause maybe they didn't get your e-mail.

GIRL: Hey, we're not talking about some street sweep the PD does every six months to shut up the moms. Okay, this is war, and everyone's a target.

RAY: She speaks true, G. A hundred percent true.
