captures from this scene

(Spike follows Angel)

SPIKE: Running away again. Nice new M.O. I can see why heroes like you get rewarded with the shiny new glass and chrome. Why didn't I think of that?

ANGEL: I'm not responsible for what happened to you.

(walks past Harmony's desk)

HARMONY: Angel, it's almost three o'clock. You have a meeting scheduled—

ANGEL: Not now, Harmony.

SPIKE: And here you've even managed to get my ex-tumble, the littlest vampire, fetching coffee for you. Nice perks for the sell-out.

ANGEL: Little tip, SPIKE: Try not to talk about things you don't understand.

SPIKE: I'm not the prat here. I know you, Angel. What do you think you're doing? Made some devil's bargain to take over this company. Thought you'd use it to fight the evil of the world from inside the belly of the beast. Trouble is you're too busy fighting to see you and yours are getting digested.

ANGEL: Not gonna happen.

SPIKE: Oh, you think you're in control here? Guess again, mate. You're no more in control than I am. Except I'm not gonna bloody stand for it, while you're just a blind... (looks over Angel's shoulder) Grox'lar Beast.

ANGEL: What?

(A Grox'lar beast approaches Angel. Angel attacks. Spike tries to join in, but his punch goes right through)

SPIKE: Oh, brilliant. (walks away)

(Angel kills the demon)

ANGEL: Somebody want to tell me how a Grox'lar Beast got past security? I don't have time for this.

SPIKE: Of course not. Man's gotta stay focused on profit margins and power lunches.

HARMONY: Angel—

ANGEL: Yeah, Spike? I got a business to run. That means responsibilities, appointments to keep.

HARMONY: That was your three o'clock.
