ANGEL: (singing) Oh, Mandy. Well you came and you gave without taking, but I sent you away, oh Mandy. Well, you kissed me and stopped me from shaking. (Lorne watches him sing) And I need you today, oh Mandy. (Angel looks at audience, his singing deteriorates) Well, you came and you gave..

CORDELIA: That man will do anything to save a life.

(Angel finishes song, Lorne takes the mike.)

LORNE: Hey, how 'bout that. A performer. Why don't we just call him Angel, the vampire with soul. I'm gonna have a chat with Mr. Tall Dark and Rockin', and meanwhile, Durthock, the child-eater, is gonna open up to y'all. He's searching for the gorrishyn mage that stole his power and he's feeling just a little bit country. So, lets give him a hand.

(Leads Angel off stage.)

LORNE: Well. You're just the hot ticket. One night only, two seats left, partially obstructed view.

ANGEL: What can you tell me?

LORNE: I can tell you're all business.

ANGEL: She's in danger.

LORNE: And you're feeling pretty guilty about that. Hey, you made an honest mistake. You killed her protector. A lot of guys would have done the same. Of course now she's gonna have to face the judgement with no champion and that's looking grim for her and the baby.

ANGEL: Tell me where they are.

LORNE: Well. Who's a little curt? Who's a little curt Jurgens in 'The Enemy Below?' The Tribunal will be wherever she is. She can't escape it.

ANGEL: Where is she?

LORNE: My question first. And answer true, 'cos you know I'll know. Why Mandy?

ANGEL: Well, I-I know the words - (leans in closer) - I kind of think it's pretty.

LORNE: And it is, you great, big sap! There is not a destroyer of worlds that can argue with Manilow and good for you for fessin' up. She'll be at Forth and Spring. The trial will be there.

ANGEL: Trial? How does it work?

LORNE: I can only tell you what I tell you. The rest is up to you.

ANGEL: Can I save her?

LORNE: Try. And find out.
