(the Reilly family is driving back to their hotel room)

MOM: Where are we supposed to go now?

DAD: I'm sure there's someone else who can... handle our trust.

CONNOR: Um, just so you know, you guys don't have to keep pretending. I know we were there because of the van thing.

DAD: Oh.

MOM: I'm sorry, honey, it's just it was--

CONNOR: It's cool. I mean, my parents are liars and I can never trust them again, but it's cool. Look...I know you guys are worried, but...the whole point is I'm OK. I got hit and I'm OK. That should make you happy, not like, you know... mental patients. I mean, it turned out fine.

DAD: It's the getting hit part. We thought you were dead.

CONNOR: Hey, have some faith in me.

DAD: Connor...

(they pull into a parking lot)

CONNOR: All right. Look, you guys... I'm not saying this isn't weird and all, but we'll get through it. You don't have to be scared.

(A demon rips the back door off the SUV and pulls Connor out of the car. Other demons attack mom and dad. )

DAD: Hey! Get off him!

CONNOR: Mom!

(Upset, Connor instictively sends a demon flying)

CONNOR: (surprised) Whoa!

(But he doesn't have the know how to use his powers. Things are looking grim, but Angel swoops down out of nowhere and saves the day)

CONNOR: Oh, my God!

ANGEL: Connor, listen to me--

CONNOR: You almost broke that guy in half! (grins) That was awesome!

(fade to commercial and back)

CONNOR: Seriously, that was the coolest thing I've ever seen.

ANGEL: Well, it's-- (vain) It's not a big deal. I mean, I do stuff like that a lot. There was this one time--

MOM: Connor!

(Connor sees his mom helping his injured father up and immediately stops paying attention to Angel, rushes towards them.)

CONNOR: Dad. Dad!

DAD: I'm OK.

MOM: We need to get him to a hospital.

ANGEL: We got doctors at Wolfram & Hart. We can help. (to Connor) You and I have some things we should probably talk about.

CONNOR: Yeah. I kinda figured.
