INT. MAIN LOBBY
The situation remains the same. Angel finally comes to grips with the situation and waves Gunn and his team off.
ANGEL
Anya? What are you doing here?
Anya gives Angel a confused look.
ANGEL (CONT'D)
Anya?
SPIKE
The bloody question should be: how did you get here?
ANYA
What are you talking about?
SPIKE
Sweetheart, you’re supposed to be dead.
ANYA
Do I look dead? I don’t see what the big deal is. I know for fact that you’re already dead and no one seems to pointing a gun at you.
ANGEL
At least not today. Anya, can you tell us what happened to you?
ANYA
Who’s Anya?
GUNN
Great another amnesia victim. Can I just kill her now and save us some trouble?
ANGEL
No.
(To Anya)
Anya. That’s your name.
ANYA
Anya? Anya. Anya. I don’t like it. Can I call myself something else?
ANGEL
Try it out for a while. Do you know who I am?
ANYA
You’re the brooder.
(points at Spike)
He’s the guy I had sex with.
(points at Gunn)
He’s the guy with the gun that I beat up. What’s his name?
ANGEL
That’s Gunn.
ANYA
His name is Gunn? And he carries a gun? Is he a cowboy? If so, he’s not a very good one. He doesn’t even wear a hat.
GUNN
I’m the meanest cowboy you’ll ever meet.
ANGEL
He's in charge of our legal department. He won’t hurt you.
GUNN
That’s what you think.
ANGEL
Simmer down.
(Turning to Anya)
Do you remember how you got here?
ANYA
(Frustrated)
It’s… I… I don’t remember.
ANGEL
It’s okay. Come with me, we have some doctors here who can take a look at you.
ANYA
Who are you again?
ANGEL
I’m Angel.
ANYA
(laughs)
I get it. You’re a vampire named Angel. That’s very ironic.
ANGEL
Yes. It’s very funny.
Anya turns to Spike.
ANYA
What’s your name?
SPIKE
Spike.
ANYA
(Suggestively)
Oh! Are you named after your…
Angel briskly moves Anya away from Spike and starts moving her down the hallway.
ANGEL
Let’s get you checked out shall we?
ANYA
(Over her shoulder to Spike)
It’s very appropriate!
(To Angel)
You see, I know that because…
ANGEL
You had sex with him. Yes. I caught that the first time.
Gunn holsters up his gun and signals the security team to start cleaning up.
GUNN
So what’s her story?
SPIKE
I hope you got time lad, because it’s a long one.
INT. LAB OBSERVATION ROOM
Through a looking glass we can see Anya, who is much cleaner now and dressed in your standard hospital gown, being examined by one or two doctors. She seems to be very interested in what they are doing and very annoyed at the same time. The entire team is there watching her through the window.
WES
Anya. Formerly Anyanka, a vengeance demon who was turned into a mortal, turned back into a vengeance demon and turned back into a mortal again.
SPIKE
(To Gunn)
That’s the short version.
WES
Do you know anything about her death?
SPIKE
Not really. I was too busy saving the world to notice.
GUNN
Do you always have to bring that up?
SPIKE
Hey. Seems to me you pooftas need to be reminded of it on a regular basis.
ANGEL
Do you have anything else to add about her?
SPIKE
Other than she chirps like a bluebird when she’s excited, I’ve got nothing else to say.
ANGEL
Then why don’t you go talk to her and see if you can find out anything else?
SPIKE
That’s a good idea. Considering I am the only one here who's had an intimate relationship with her. Didn’t even lose my soul.
ANGEL
Leave already!
Spike leaves with a smirk
ANGEL (CONT'D)
What else do we know?
FRED
Not a lot.
Fred starts laying down photographs of Anya. One of them shows a MRI of her brain. One shows a scar on her back starting from the shoulder and going all the way down. Another shows scars on her hands and arms and the final one showing a puncture wound on the back of her neck near the base of her skull.
FRED (CONT'D)
Her MRI shows a lot of trauma and she has a ton of scar tissue. There seems to have been some trauma to the head as well, which could be the reason for the memory loss.
GUNN
That doesn’t explain how she mopped the floor with my team. I thought you said she was human.
WES
From all accounts, including Wolfram and Hart’s, she was human when she died.
ANGEL
Is Lorne around? Maybe she can sing a little song.
EVE
He’s in Texas enjoying a Lyle Lovett concert. However we do have a former client that might be able to help us out.
ANGEL
How trustworthy is this client?
EVE
About as trustworthy as me.
The Fang Gang rolls their eyes as Eve exits.
GUNN
I’ll go take a look at police reports between here and Sunnydale and see if I can find anything… Weird.
WES
I’ll go to the stacks and see if I can find any information on Anyanka and see if there are any strange after-effects from becoming a mortal after being a demon after being mortal and… Oh never mind. I’ll just do research.
FRED
There’s more test results to go over. I’ll let you know what I find out.
All get up to leave.
ANGEL
Hold up. Fred, I need you to bring me something from your lab, and Gunn there’s one more lead I’d like you to follow up on as well.
INT. MEDICAL
Angel enters as Spike and Anya continue to chat.
SPIKE
Do you remember the big battle?
ANYA
I remember some faces and some events. It's been very fuzzy. I remember being attacked by some very ugly people. Being buried under a pile of rubble and doing a lot of walking. And then somehow I found my way here. Ta-Dah! Oh and money! I really like money!
ANGEL
How did you find us?
ANYA
I’m not sure. I just kind of… Wandered around the city for a couple of weeks and found this demon bar. At first I thought the people there just had a bad skin problem, but then one of them started talking about Wolfram and Hart and how there are two vampires there and one thing let to another and… again… Ta-Dah!
Fred enters carrying a bundle.
FRED
I got it.
ANGEL
Thanks.
(Angel takes the bundle)
Now Anya, I want to test your memory and see your reaction to this object. It’s not very scientific, but I think it may help us figure out why you are… the way you are.
ANYA
(shrugs)
Okay.
ANGEL
Tell me your feelings about this.
Angel opens up the bundle and pulls out a bunny rabbit. Anya wigs and starts screaming hysterically. She holds her arms out as if to defend herself and beams of energy crackle out, hitting Angel and throwing him against the wall.
