I didn't sleep very well.
Yeah, and you look like hell. Not the fun one where they burn you with hot pokers for all eternity, but the hard core one. You know, Nixon and Britney Spears.

I didn't sleep very well.
Yeah, and you look like hell. Not the fun one where they burn you with hot pokers for all eternity, but the hard core one. You know, Nixon and Britney Spears.
Like a cat. Can't hear you. But I'm starting to feel you when you're near. Isn't that nice and creepy? How did you find me?
Your assistant.
I'll have his arms broken.
Already taken care of.
You back-stabbing, traitorous bitch. I have a lot of work to do. I can't be in every time/space at once, and here I find you drinking with my sworn enemy.
Sworn enemy? Really? Have we met? Because I don't remember swearing.
Sahjhan, he found me.
So (glances from Lilah to Sahjhan) you all are in cahoots. Ethereal time-traveling demon, you're the screwball that brought Holtz back. How's that working out? He's not very fond of demons, is he?
You will learn nothing from me.
Other than that you're his sworn enemy, who brought Holtz back, and when that didn't work out, you came to me. Idiot.
Hey! You think my life is easy? I'm jumping from one dimension to another. I don't always have sound. Sometimes it's just a visual. Saw you two sitting here all chummy.
You will pay.
(Confused) For what?
You ever hear of a time-traveling demon by the name of Sahjhan?
No.
The guy that brought Holtz here. He thinks I'm his sworn enemy. I don't know him from Adam.
Not all of us. You do not want the child alive. You want the child dead. That was our arrangement.
Yeah. I'm a lawyer. Have you met me? We have a new arrangement. I'm keeping the baby.
You can't do that!
(to the commandos) Ignore the loud mouth with the bad skin. He's impotent in this dimension.
I'm not interested in what you think!
Hey, easy guys!
[About Wesley] He took my son.
I know this is life and death. I'm just saying, let's get...
[Angel grabs Gunn's shirt collar with both hands and pushes him back.]
He took my son!
You better get your damn hands off of me!
Stop it! Stop it both of you! This isn't helping, damn it! [Pushes them apart] Back off! There is only one thing that matters right now, and that is 'where is Connor?'
[Holtz places his hand directly below baby Connor's neck.]
Come any closer and I'll snap his neck!
[Angel comes to a dead stop.]
[All around them commandos are jumping out of their vehicles, cocking their machine guns.]
Who are they?
They work for me.
Ah. The attorney.
Yes. You are gonna give us the kid, Captain Holtz.
Don't!
That's cute. You'd rather see the fanatic with the baby than us? [To Holtz] Those are automatic weapons pointed at you. They didn't have them in your time. They fire sixteen bullets per second.
And if they were going to use them they would have already. They want the baby alive.
Something we all have in common.
[The air shivers and Sahjhan appears.]
Not all of us.
Don't shoot.
Yeah. You really don't want to. Your bullets won't kill me. But mine will kill you and her first.
[Angel looks over at Holtz and Connor.]
He'll be dead before I hit the ground.
I know.
So. I'm going to leave now, right? With me, he gets to live, anyone tries to take him, he dies.
Take him.
Woah! No! What is wrong of you people?
[To Angel] I will take good care of him, as though he were my own son. He'll never even know you existed. Don't come after me. You will though, won't you? Maybe I should just..."
No. Please.
[Justine looks from Holtz' hand moving closer to Connor's neck to Angel and back.]
Take him.
