captures from this scene

(two elevator doors, side by side, open simultaneously. Angel and Spike, unaware of each others' presences, step off. Then they notice each other. Angel is not pleased. Spike is amused)

SPIKE: Oh. (chuckles) Well, fancy this. Bitty slug I saved you from scramble your brains after all? Come to check yourself in?

ANGEL: What are you doing here, Spike?

SPIKE: Didn't get the memo? Hero of the people now.

ANGEL: Oh, then go and annoy them.

SPIKE: When I'm done. Heard one of the simples went for a stroll.

ANGEL: And I'll get her back without your help.

SPIKE: Goody for you, 'cause, uh, not offering it.

ANGEL: Look, shouldn't you be out in the streets, you know, protecting the city from people like you?

SPIKE: Go where I'm needed.

ANGEL: Well, which isn't here.

NURSE: Gentlemen, may I help you?

DOCTOR RABINAW: Can I help you?

SPIKE: Other way around, doc. I'm—

ANGEL: Here to get your patient back. (hands his card to the doctor) Angel. Wolfram & Hart.

DOCTOR RABINAW: A lawyer? I already told the police everything I know.

ANGEL: Well, let's go over it again, just in case you left out any details.

SPIKE: What he said. But with a bit more of a threat at the end.

(cut to Dana's cell, covered in crayon-monster artwork)

DOCTOR RABINAW: She was a special case. Her family was murdered in their home when she was 10. Whoever did it took Dana... and tortured her for months. She was found one day naked and bleeding, wandering the streets. Barely functional, nearly catatonic ever since.

SPIKE: Looks like she snapped out of it.

DOCTOR RABINAW: Several months ago her condition changed. Increasing levels of agitation accompanied by explosive outbursts of inhuman strength.

SPIKE: Right. Demon possession.

DOCTOR RABINAW: That's ridiculous.

ANGEL: You're not helping, Spike.

SPIKE: No, I'm doing. You can hang out for the show-and-tell-me-nothing. I got a demon needs repossessing. Ta. (exits)

ANGEL: Sorry. He's... is pathological idiot an actual condition?

DOCTOR RABINAW: May I suggest that you stop your friend? If he finds Dana, he's gonna end up dead like the others.

ANGEL: Yeah, but he'll just end up comin' back.

(the doctor exits)

ANGEL: (to himself) What isn't he tellin' me?

NURSE: Rabinaw videoed all his sessions with her.

ANGEL: Show me.
