LORNE: Archduke Sebassis. Bona fide nobility from the fiery down under. Commands over 40 legions. He's the living end of a pure bloodline of demonic royalty.

ANGEL: Great. Just great.

LORNE: Well, also, the very peak of the A-list mountain. He's the crown jewel of the underworld jet set. If we convince him to come, all the other glitterati will just domino in right behind him, and then—then we'll be in business.

ANGEL: This really matters to you, doesn't it?

LORNE: Well, of course. The new Wolfram & Hart— I mean, we have to—

ANGEL: No. I mean, this really matters to you. Personally.

LORNE: Yeah. You know, Angel, I— I don't have superhuman strength, and I'm not a fighter. Quantum physics makes me nauseous, and I barely made a passing grade at mystical studies, but I'm on your team. This is something I can do. I believe it has a purpose that can help you, even if you don't.

ANGEL: Well, I'm here, aren't I? I agreed to this.

LORNE: No, you—you did. You did. And I promise you won't regret it. But, hey, let's leave it that you let me do most of the talking, huh? You just kind of smile and try not to rip anybody apart. OK?
