- Cordelia Chase: [to Angel] I was so glad you came. You know how parties are? You're always worried that no one's gonna suck the energy out of the room like a giant black hole of boring despair. But, there you were in the clinch!
- Wesley Wyndam-Pryce: Perhaps we need a plan.
- Angel: Here's the plan. We go in, I start hittin' people hard in the face. See where it takes us.
- Angel: [Angel pretends to be a tour guide to evade museum security] On the left, one spies the painter himself. In the middle distance is the French poet and critic, Baudelaire, a friend of the artist. Now, Baudelaire, interesting fellow. In his poem Le Vampire, he wrote, "Thou who abruptly as a knife didst come into my heart." He strongly believed that evil forces surrounded mankind, and some even speculated that the poem was about a real vampire.
- [chuckles, then sees the coast is clear and starts to leave]
- Angel: Oh, and Baudelaire was actually a little taller and a lot drunker than he's depicted here.
