EVE: It's very simple, really. (to Harmony, RE: drink) Thank you. (to the group) Charles agreed to let us enhance his mind with a comprehensive knowledge of the law.

WESLEY: Without asking us?

GUNN: Mother, may I?

FRED: Without telling us?

GUNN: 'Cause I knew you guys would freak. Look, it's me here. They didn't evil me up. All I got stuck in my head was the law. And for some reason, a messload of Gilbert and Sullivan.

EVE: Standard. Great for elocution.

ANGEL: How can you possibly know they didn't do anything else?

GUNN: 'Cause I saw the man in the white room. He does a lot of scary things, but lying ain't one of them.

EVE: You needed a lawyer to get by here. Charles had the most unused potential. His degrees are all forged, but he's the real deal.

GUNN: You want me to sing for Lorne? I could give him a little Pirates of Penzance. All of it, actually.

EVE: I would also point out that he did just save the day, without ever resorting to violence. (to Angel) How'd you do? I think you guys are gonna make it work. Yay, team. I'll see you around. (exits)
