GENE: So how was scene class?

DENISE: Well, you know ... Jack thinks he can't play it without a goatee.

GENE: The footstool would have a goatee?

DENISE: Well, you know Jack. (She lifts the necklace hanging around her neck) Thank you for the, uh ... It's really pretty.

GENE: It made me think of you. Are you all done?

DENISE: Yeah. I'm not that hungry. It was good. It was really good.

(They move to the bedroom.)

DENISE: (smelling the rose) That's sweet.

GENE: I'm sorry about the clutter.

DENISE: It wouldn't be you without it.

(She slowly takes off her blouse and lets her hair down. They are in bed under the sheets, kissing.)

GENE: I love you.

(Gene turns on the machine while on top of Denise, and a triangle of beams surrounds them, forming the time field. They freeze.)

ANGEL: (arriving at Gene's building) Okay. If I had a machine to stop time, where would I put it?

LORNE: Probably where the demons can guard it (points at a Lubber demon).

(In the basement a Lubber demon messes with Gene's laptop. The machine revs and the field starts to grow beyond Gene and Denise through the building. Angel and Lorne break in. Angel fights the Lubbers and manages to disable the machine after one of the Lubbers is frozen in midair. The Lubber plunges as the field disappears, and Angel kills it.)

DENISE: Gene, we have to talk.
