DOYLE: Pretty low rent, even by demon standards.

ANGEL: You said they were hiding. It's a good place for it.

(They enter a room with a meal still sitting on the table.)

ANGEL: Doyle.

DOYLE: Signs of life.

ANGEL: I smell something.

DOYLE: (RE: the food) Still warm. They left in a hurry.

ANGEL: Not food. (Throws a carpet aside revealing a trap door) Fear.

(They open the trap door and shine their flashlights into it revealing a huddled mass of demons of all ages.)

ANGEL: Don't be afraid. It's okay. We're here to help.

(... later ...)

ELDER: We gave all out money to a man who promised to get us passports and safe passage on a ship. We didn't know. It was stupid of us. He disappeared with our money and the ship never came.

ANGEL: Where were you going?

ELDER: Briole. Small island off the coast of Equador. Others of our kind have found sanctuary there.

ANGEL: Sanctuary from whom?

(The two demon kids come rushing in)

RIEFF: They're close. They almost got us. We lost half of our supplies.

ELDER: Rieff, we have a guest. It’s the Promised One.

RIEFF: Terrific.

ANGEL: I think there's been some kind of misunderstanding?

ELDER: Oh, I don't think so. Many of our prophecies are cryptic, but on one thing they're all clear: In the final days of this century the promised one will appear and save us from the Scourge.

ANGEL: The Scourge?

RIEFF: He doesn't even know who they are. How's he supposed to protect us from them?

ELDER: Rieff...

RIEFF: They're coming and no matter how many promised guys you throw at them, they won't stop until every last one of us is dead. You're gonna get us all killed.

(Walks out.)

ELDER: He's young. I'm sorry. Excuse me.
