(Cut to Angel’s father nailing up his window from the inside.)

ANGELUS: You’re no different than the rest of them, are you, Father? Cowering in their houses. Boarding up the windows. Smearing that foul herb in the doorways. You’d think something evil and vile and monstrous had taken to terrorizing this village and everyone in it.

FATHER: Be gone, unclean thing! A demon can not enter a home where it’s not welcome. He must be invited!

ANGELUS: That’s true. But I was invited.

(Angelus indicates with his eyes. His father turns and sees his daughter Kathy slumped against the wall.)

FATHER: Oh!

ANGELUS: She thought I returned to her. An angel.

FATHER: Murderer!

ANGELUS: Strange. Somehow you seemed taller when I was alive.

FATHER: Lord, bind this demon now.

ANGELUS: To think I ever let such a tiny, trembling thing make me feel the way you did.

FATHER: (crossing himself) Deliver me unto thy protection, Father.

ANGELUS: You told me I wasn’t a man. You told me I was nothing. And I believed you. You said I’d never amount to anything. Well, you were wrong. (Angel morphs into vamp face) You see, father? I have made something out of myself, after all.

(Angel puts a hand over his father’s face and bites him.)
