KATE: Where is he?

CORDELIA: He's not here.

KATE: (to other cops) Basement, attic, every room. He's extremely dangerous. Bullets won't necessarily do the trick. Everyone's on channel two, you see him, you call me.

WESLEY: I don't suppose you have a warrant to go along with this little search?

KATE: Seeing as how he just murdered Stephen Kramer - and kidnapped his wife, I think I've got probable cause.

CORDELIA: He wouldn't… Angel could never do a thing like...

WESLEY: He's not the type of person...

KATE: In fact he's not a person at all, is he? You guys want to help yourselves out here - or go down with the boss?

(Cordy and Wesley's only reaction is to fold their arms up in front of them. )

KATE: So be it. (Looks at Gunn) New player?

CORDELIA: He's a friend.

KATE: And what's your friend's name?

GUNN: Charles Gunn.

KATE: Let's see some I.D., Charles. (he hands it over) Got any priors?

GUNN: I forget.

KATE: Montgomery, run the sheet.

WESLEY: Listen, whatever you think Angel did, I'm sure there's a...

KATE: Who's Darla?

(...)

KATE: Oh, looky here. Disturbing the peace, resisting arrest, G.T.A., assault. You've lead a rich full life, haven't you Charles?

GUNN: I get around.

CORDELIA: I know this guy, he helps people. I bet this stuff you're dredging up happened a long time ago, didn't it?

KATE: Some of it was when he was a minor.

CORDELIA: Ah-hah!

KATE: And some of it was in the last two weeks.

CORDELIA: Oh.

KATE: Word to the wise, Charles? Hanging out with these two and their creature-of-the-night boss won't be good for the resume.

GUNN: I can see you're looking out for me, detective.

CORDELIA: Okay, okay, lets not get off track here. We want to find Angel as much as you do.

KATE: No you don't. You want to protect him even though he's lost it. He stalked that woman because he thought she was this Darla from his past. She begged him to stay out and he knocked down the door and killed her husband. I've read about him, too, I know he is and I know he hasn't changed.

GUNN: (realizes) No he hasn't, he's still a vampire.

CORDELIA: Gunn! not helping.

GUNN: So, how'd he get in the house? She invite him in?

KATE: Of course she didn't invite...

CORDELIA: The only way Angel could have gotten into that house uninvited would be if the real owners were dead. It's what he was saying all along; she isn't DeEtta Kramer!

KATE: You're grasping at straws.

WESLEY: Are we? This is a daguerreotype of Darla, taken over a hundred years ago. That woman who said she was DeEtta Kramer, look familiar?

(...)

COP: He's nowhere to be found.

KATE: Leave some officers on the perimeter in case he shows. (The cops file out. To Cordy and co.) I'll be sure and mention your cooperation in the report.

CORDELIA: Hey, we did more than cooperate, we solved the damn case. Find out who did away with the real owners of that house, and you'll find your killer.

KATE: You don't get it, do you?

GUNN: What, the fact that he's innocent?

KATE: The fact that while you're fighting your big battles of Good and Evil the *innocent* are the ones that get caught in the crossfire. Those are the ones that I care about. Like that man tonight, or like the real owners of that house if what you say is true. And those are the ones that I chalk up to your boss.

WESLEY: You can't blame Angel for - he's trying to do what's right.

KATE: That's right, he's good, I keep forgetting. I'm sorry, and why'd he kidnap that woman again?
