[Darla pulls the stake out of her right palm and lets it drop as she walks towards Angel.]
You *so* want to play the good guy, don't you? Yeah. You're the good guy who did *this* to me.
[Hauls back and knocks Angel across the face, slamming him against one of the games.]
You may have the face, but you don't know the hunger! It pounds! You can't make it go away! You can't stop it!
I'll stop it!
[He hauls back and hits Darla. The two of them fight. In the end Angel manages to grab Darla by the throat and push her up against the wall.]
How could you put this in me? I hate you!
[Darla hits him again, but Angel refuses to let go of her throat.]
They breathe. They breathe and pound. I don't breathe, you idiot! You can't strangle me!
[Darla laughs.]
I'm not gonna strangle you.
[Angel pulls her away and slams her back up against the wall, pulling out another stake.]
Come on! Do it! (Angel hesitates) Do it!
[Angel slowly lowers the stake and looks down at Darla's belly. We hear a heartbeat. Angel slowly steps back from Darla. Darla lunges, grabs a hold of Angel's jacket and shakes him.]
Do it! Do it! Make it stop!
[Angel gently restrains her, wrapping her tightly in his arms and pulling her up against his chest.]
No it won't, Darla. Darla, listen to me.
Make it stop! Make it stop.
The child. The child has a heartbeat. It has a soul.
[Darla flailing wildly]
No! Not my child! No!
Our child. Our child. Our child. That's why you've been craving purer and purer blood. That's why it's been driving you out of your mind. It has a soul.
[Darla collapses against Angel's chest, sobbing]
No, it doesn't.
[Angel holds her]
It does.
It can't.
Yes, it does. It does.
