(Angel is pushing Darla along one of the hospital hallways in a wheelchair.)

ANGEL: How are you feeling?

DARLA: I haven't had blood in almost a day, and your devil spawn is trying to rip its way out of my body. How do you think I'm doing?

CORDELIA: (from an open door) Psst. Paging Dr. Angel.

WESLEY: I sent Gunn and Fred to find an ultra-sound machine so we can take a look. Inside Darla, that is.

ANGEL: What is this? A classroom?

WESLEY: Yes. It's is a teaching hospital. How are you feeling, Darla?

ANGEL: Something wrong?

DARLA: I think the contractions have stopped.

ANGEL: Is that bad?

WESLEY: Do you mind if I...

DARLA: I won't bite.

CORDELIA: No, but that thing inside might.

(Wes carefully feels Darla's belly.)

WESLEY: You may have been experiencing something called Braxton-Hicks contractions. They're a form of false labor.

DARLA: False?

WESLEY: False as in not ready to come out yet.

DARLA: Well, I'm way past ready. I'd cut it out of me if I could.

GUNN: Here you go, one ultra-sound machine.

WESLEY: Darla, up on the table, please.

ANGEL: Don't you wanna see what's inside?

(...)

WESLEY: Well, then. Let's take a look, shall we? (Looks at the monitor) Well, I haven't studied one of these for quite a while.

ANGEL: Isn't that a head?

WESLEY: I think it is. Or is that the head?

FRED: Maybe you're both right. (Everyone turns to look at her) It's not like I'm suggesting it's an *evil* two-headed thing.

CORDELIA: I see it.

DARLA: My little parasite.

WESLEY: Oh, my...

ANGEL: What is it?

WESLEY: It's - it's human.

GUNN: Human as is in humanoid? As in cannibalistic humanoid underground dwellers?

WESLEY: No - human as in - a boy.

ANGEL: Boy?

WESLEY: A boy. A boy. (To Darla) You're carrying a boy.

DARLA: Great.

ANGEL: Gonna have a son. (smiling) I'm gonna have a son.

FRED: Guys. As fascinating as an ultra-sound image of an unborn child may appear...

ANGEL: Me. A father. To a son. You know what that means?

FRED: We're surrounded by vampires?

ANGEL: No, it's a human bo...

(Angel trails off as he looks away from the monitor for the first time and notices the vampires lining the teaching gallery above them and the back wall of the room.)

ANGEL: Oh. We *are* surrounded by vampires.
