ANGEL: (to Wes) Ah, you wait here. I want a warning when the demons show.

WESLEY: All right.

(He tries to jump out over the passenger side door, but his foot gets caught and he falls to the ground.)

CORDELIA: (gasps) Wesley!

(The interior of the spa.)

GUY: Welcome, bro.

ANGEL: I need to see Jhiera. Now.

GUY: I'm sorry, no Jhiera here, but I already see I can help *you*. First, let's talk about the clothes vibe.

ANGEL: (grabbing him) She's in trouble. There are men coming for her.

GUY: And which dimension are you from, brother?

ANGEL: You don't want to know.

(The guy motions with his head; and Angel walks off.)

JHIERA: What are you doing here? I thought I made it clear...

ANGEL: They're coming.

JHIERA: I know all about it. We're leaving in the morning.

ANGEL: Not soon enough.

JHIERA: What are you talking about?

ANGEL: They're on their way. They'll be here...

CORDELIA: (running into the room with Wesley) Now. That would be now.

ANGEL: Help get the girls out. (To the spa guy) You go back out front. Stall them as long as you can. (The guy nods and leaves)

ANGEL: I'm gonna help you whether you like it or not.

(Wesley helps one of the girls out of the tub of ice and leads her out.)

WESLEY: Oh my. You are a...allow me to introduce myself.

CORDELIA: (kicking him in the back from behind) Wesley!

(Cut to the spa guy being held up by Tay.)

GUY: How about a red clay massage? We have hands that heal, brothers.

(Tay punches him. The six Vigories move on, engage Angel & Jheira)

(Cut to outside.)

WESLEY: (to mostly-naked demon girl) That outfit...it quite becomes you, you know.

CORDELIA: Wesley, get a grip! They're not going to be able to hold them off all day.

WESLEY: (helpin another girl) My, what a grip. Very...healthy. Surprisingly firm myself under the jacket. Have a feel.

CORDELIA: You're pathetic! And about to get your eyeballs fried!

WESLEY: I know, but, ah...just, ah...one kiss good-bye?

(Cut to Angel and Jhiera fighting the Vigories. Wesley and Cordelia run in and join the fray, but are quickly taken hostage. Angel sees them being held and quits fighting.)

TAY: Jhiera and the runaways are ours.

ANGEL: No, they're not.

TAY: Give them back or the humans die.

JHIERA: Then they die.

(Everyone looks after her as she walks out. The fight resumes. Jhiera walks up to the truck where Wes & Cordy loaded the girls. A Vigory grabs her)

TAY: Hold it. Hold it still. Time to go home.

(Tay is about to close the pliers on the top ridge when Angel wraps his arm around the Vigory's neck and pulls him off Jhiera.)

ANGEL: Unless you want to see your leader dead, you let her go.

(The Vigory lets Jhiera go)

ANGEL: Go. GO!

(Jhiera gets in the truck and drives off. Angel waits until she's gone, then pushes Tay towards the other Vigory.)

ANGEL: I don't want you bringing your war here again.

TAY: I have no choice! If this enemy persists, our whole society crumbles.

ANGEL: And if it persists on *my* turf you're gonna have another enemy!

TAY: You don't understand our ways, human.

ANGEL: No, I don't. (He morphs into vamp face) And I'm not human. Now, if I were you, I'd grab the next portal out of here. Got it?

(The Vigories look intimidated. they take off)
