(Standing side by side, Angel and Spike stare at Eve with their arms crossed.)

EVE: No way. Even if my connection to the senior partners wasn't completely severed, I'm done helping you.

ANGEL: This isn't a negotiation, Eve.

EVE: Ooh, I'm intimidated. What could you possibly do to me? I've been trapped in this house for weeks like a—
