• Winifred 'Fred' Burkle : Is that why you ran out while Cordelia was singing?

  Lorne : Well, "A", I wasn't running, I was fleeing. And, "B", yes.

  Charles Gunn : Well, how horrible is this thing?

  Lorne : Well, I haven't read the Book of Revelations lately, but, if I was searching for adjectives, I'd probably start there.

• Angel : How could you let her wander off alone?

  Winifred 'Fred' Burkle : The words "grown woman" come to mind.

  Charles Gunn : And the gal does have a history of whooping ass. I mean, you saw the hurting she put on those Wolfram and Hart dudes. And could she really turn me into a rat?

• Murray : [On the answering machine]  Uh, yeah, this is Murray, down at the spa. Listen, it's after midnight, and uh, you better get down here. That demon broad came back. Looks like she's gonna try and hatch her blood-sucking little...

  Winifred 'Fred' Burkle : [Grabs the phone]  We're here. Uh-huh. OK. We'll be right there.

  Cordelia : Did-he say "demon broad"?

  Winifred 'Fred' Burkle : Yeah. His, um, wife. It's an ugly divorce case thing. You know, private eye stuff.

  Winifred 'Fred' Burkle : I should get Charles and terminate it before the situation multiplies.

  [Fred mimes giving birth behind Cordy's back] 

• Charles Gunn : Where you going?

  Cordelia : Out. Away. Does it matter?

  Winifred 'Fred' Burkle : But it's not safe.

  Cordelia : Oh, right, 'cause of evil ninja law firm.

  Charles Gunn : We'll come with, just in case.

  Cordelia : You keep telling me I was a higher being. Don't make me turn you into a rat.

  [slams door] 

  Charles Gunn : [Freaked out]  Can she do that?

• Charles Gunn : How 'bout a sandwich. Let's go to the kitchen.

  Winifred 'Fred' Burkle : We have cookies.

  Cordelia : I don't want a sandwich. I don't want cookies. I wanna talk to Angel, sans sidekicks.

  [Walks off] 

  Charles Gunn : I am not a sidekick.
