(Gunn tranqs Angelus, Lilah takes off)

GUNN: (to Wesley) Lilah�ran off into the sewers. Connor, wait. You should wait here, make sure it isn't a setup. Might be others. Check the locks. What kind of brain fart made that witch try and let Angelus out?

CORDELIA: I want to know how she even knew he was here.

CONNOR: Maybe she took Angel's soul.

GUNN: She's a muckety-muck at Wolfram and Hart. It's her job to know.

FRED: I thought the Beast killed everyone at Wolfram and Hart.

GUNN: Maybe she cut some kind of deal with it.

CONNOR: You really think she has a connection to the Beast?

(...)

GUNN: Lilah or not, something is doing the Beast's dirty work.

CORDELIA: It would explain how giant lava boy could tiptoe past us to take out Manny.

CONNOR: And butcher that family, those priestesses.

FRED: Even though Lilah's evil, I don't see her hacking up all those people.

GUNN: OK, maybe it's not just her. Maybe...maybe the big bad Beast had minions doing his dirty work.

ANGELUS: (wakes) Morons. The big rock doesn't have minions. It is the minion.

FRED: No, it's not. We've seen what it can do.

ANGELUS: You've just seen the warm-up act.

CORDELIA: What are you saying?

ANGELUS: I'm saying there's something bigger. Something worse. The Beast has a boss.

(commercial)

GUNN: Worse than the Beast?

CORDELIA: That's�that's not possible.

ANGELUS: How did you survive this long being so retarded?

GUNN: Cut the fu-manchu. What do you know?

ANGELUS: Quite a bit, bright boy. Maybe I'll fill in the blanks sometime.

CONNOR: How do you know there's something worse than the Beast?

ANGELUS: 'Cause I have a brain, son. The Beast I knew was big into smash and slaughter. Had the brawn to be really good at it too, but the big picture�not his strong point. But whoa! Flash forward. Now he's all rain of fire, destroying the Ra-Tet, blotting out the sun. Big moves for a guy whose head is made out of rock.

CORDELIA: Maybe he got smarter.

ANGELUS: And maybe I'll sprout some wings and flutter away. There's something else out there�more powerful, more vicious�pulling all the strings. Ooh, don't know about you, but I'm just dying to find out what it is.
