WESLEY: You've found a vulnerability, exploited it. Well done. Can we move on now?

ANGELUS: I'm just getting started. Tell you this— all that digging you've been doing on the horny giant... wrong place.

WESLEY: And the right place?

ANGELUS: I could tell you. Wouldn't be sporting.

WESLEY: But you were adversaries—you and the Beast.

ANGELUS: Guy like me... friends, enemies...hard to keep track.

WESLEY: If he was an enemy, I'd be doing you a favor in destroying him.

ANGELUS: You know, you're not fooling anyone. Get some new clothes, cool haircut, hit the gym—you're still the same loser none of the other kids wanted to sit with at lunch.

WESLEY: Yet you're locked in that cage, and I'm out here.

ANGELUS: So? You've got no leverage. What are you going to do? Kill me?

WESLEY: If I have to.

ANGELUS: (chuckles) Wait 'til they drop, Wes, then try that line again.

WESLEY: I'll put your soul back. You won't talk, no problem—we'll bring Angel back and be no worse off than we were.

ANGELUS: Making you a failure again.

WESLEY: You want to waste my time, you can rot down here.

(walks away)

ANGELUS: Nice stamina, Wes. No wonder Fred's not interested.

WESLEY: Whatever your connection to the Beast, clearly you don't know anything that can help us.

ANGELUS: Is this the part where I'm supposed to get defensive, start talking to prove you wrong? What else you got?

WESLEY: You must hate it. That Angel fights evil.

ANGELUS: Eats you up inside, doesn't it. Seeing all those idiots flock around him, calling him a champion. Anyone ever call you a champion?

WESLEY: I do my part.

ANGELUS: Right. Like letting Lilah suck Lorne's brain. Or, here's an oldie but a goodie: Faith. Good job being her watcher. She turned out to be a peach.

WESLEY: And you managed to get your soul back, not once, but twice, saving the world several times in the process. Nobody's perfect.

ANGELUS: Then there's kidnapping the fruit of my loins. Smooth.

WESLEY: He survived.

ANGELUS: I guess you just can't understand that special bond between dad and son, given that your own father's ashamed of you—

WESLEY: And Connor's ashamed of you. The universe's way of maintaining order, I guess.

ANGELUS: (chuckles) Twerp really gives me the creeps. You?

WESLEY: In Cordelia's vision, you and the Beast were standing on a field—

ANGELUS: Oh, God, yeah. Let's talk about Cordy, shall we? Now, there's a rack to write home about. Too bad about the personality, though. (bobbing his head) Yap, yap, yap, yap, yap! (mocking Cordelia) Oh, God. Oh, Angel. Angel, we can't. I love you, but you were so bad. You ate babies. (scoffs) Chicks.
