(note: the following scene happens entirely in Angel's head)

ANGEL: Connor.

CONNOR: Leave me alone.

ANGEL: Can't we just talk about this? (hears something) Don't move.

CONNOR: Don't tell me what to do.

(Connor walks forward and triggers a booby trap; Connor ducks, but a dart flies into Angel's shoulder.)

ANGEL: Connor— Ow. That hurt.

CONNOR: Yeah, I can really see why she wants you.

ANGEL: Connor, I know you're hurt—

CONNOR: You don't know anything, Dad, except—except how to take things away from me.

ANGEL: Be careful.

CONNOR: Why? Nothing in this world is the way it ought to be. It's harsh and cruel— Because of you!

(Connor throws Angel across the room.)

ANGEL: This isn't the place for this.

(Connor and Angel fight, triggering darts everywhere they step. They duck and move, avoiding being hit by the darts as they fight.)

CONNOR: It's your fault. It's all your fault. I shouldn't have been born!

ANGEL: Grow up! You think you're the only one who ever felt like that? Wished his father was dead?

CONNOR: Yeah, but mine already is.

ANGEL: It's not all about you, Connor. What you want isn't always what other people need.

CONNOR: She's mine! (punches Angel across the room) She was mine.

CORDELIA: (enters the room) No, she wasn't. I'm sorry, Connor, but you need to understand that.

(Connor runs out of the room.)

ANGEL: Connor.
