INT. HALLWAY AT WOLFRAM & HART - DAY
Lorne: You are my sunshine, my only sunshine...
(starts down the stairs)
Fred: (turns to Wes, smiling, singing)
You make me happy—
The instant Fred starts singing, Lorne stops in his tracks and turns
back to Fred in horror. A moment later, Fred coughs up blood and collapses,
falling down the stairs. Lorne catches her, and Wesley rushes to her side
as she begins convulsing in their arms.
Wesley: Get medical.
INT. LOBBY AT WOLFRAM & HART - DAY
ANGEL: Some parasitic agent is working its way through.

INT. FRED'S APARTMENT
Illaryia: If the world is truly overrun by humans...
(puts her hand on Wes's chest and effortlessly thrusts him across
the room into a wall)
then I have work to do.
(leaves the apartment)
INT. ANGEL'S OFFICE
Spike: The thing only took over her body. Just a tip of the theological.
Angel: It's the soul that matters.
INT. SCIENCE LAB - NIGHT
Illaryia: This world... it's not how I left it.
Knox: I'm sorry. There's nothing I can do about that.
Illaryia: But I can.
INT. SCIENCE LAB
Illaryia: 2 half-breeds and a band of primitives. Is this all that challenges
me now?
Angel: That, and a whole lot of bullets.
(the guards cock their machine guns and point them at Illyria)
Illyria grabs Angel and throws him through the window; he falls to
the ground outside.)
Gunn: Take her!
With a wave of her hand, Illyria creates a wave of some sort that,
when it reaches the others, slows their movements down to super-slow-motion.
As Wes, Gunn, and Spike try to approach her, they are virtually frozen
in their anger. Illyria, able to move in real-time, grabs Knox by the
lapels and walks out of the lab past the others without their notice,
accidentally knocking beakers and vials to the ground, shattering them
on her way out.
INT. LOBBY OF WOLFRAM & HART - NIGHT
Angel: Great. She's super strong and she can alter time.

Wesley: (reading) Her army of doom.
Spike: There's a shock.
Angel: They were entombed with her.
Wesley: Waiting for her return.
Spike: To Los Angeles?
Wesley: This is where her temple was millions of years ago, and it's still
here.
INT. ILLYRIA'S TEMPLE
Illyria: You're too late. My army will rise. This world will be mine once again.
(arrives at the nave of the temple, only to see her statue has been
toppled and her army is dead)
No.
Illyria looks around the temple. The columns are broken. The place
is silent as a grave. Her temple is in complete ruin.
It can't be.
(panting, crushed)
It's gone.
INT. ANGEL'S OFFICE - NIGHT
Angel: She had everything, Wes. Everything. You think she's not lookin' to get that back?
INT. WESLEY'S OFFICE - DAY
Gunn: But you got her on a leash or something, right?
Wesley: No. (laughs bitterly) No. (picks up a scroll, unrolling it to read it)
She's monumentally self-possessed.
(puts down the scroll, looks at his wristwatch, then listens to it)
She still thinks she's the god-king of the universe.
INT. OBSERVATION AREA - DAY
Wesley: I know. She could still prove to be problematic for us. Much of what
she was is still intact. I doubt she'll ever stop trying to conquer...
everything.
TEASER
INT. ROBIN'S OFFICE
Robin is sitting at his desk. It lies covered in books. Faith enters and sits on the couch.
Faith: What's up?
Robin: Spike had another vision.
Faith: More Monkeys?
Robin: Pig.
Faith: What, the powers want us to open a petting zoo or somthin'?
Robin: (Laughs) I've been doing research for the past three hours.
Faith: And Your still awake?
Robin: Not everyone is as bored with studying as you are sweetie.
Faith: Whatever you say pookie.
Robin: Pookie?
Faith: I thought I'd try it. (She looks disgusted) I won't be doing it again. So what'do we got?
Robin: It's "So what do we have?"
Faith: I told you, you correct my grammer again and I shove my heel where the sun don't shine.
Robin: Something we'll have to try later. (Beat) Joking.
Faith: Hey, I'm game if you are.
Robin: Anyway… Here's what we got. The stones are really ancient talismans. There are twelve of them. One for each sign of the Chinese Zodiac. Monkey, Sheep, ox, dragon-
Faith: Doc, Dopey, Sleepy, and happy. Oh wait, those were the dwarfs.
Robin: Ha, ha.
Faith: So what do those demons want with some old stones.
Robin: Those demons, according to intel, are part of a cult called… (Flipps through pages) The Demon's Fist. Each stone has a different mystical power.
Faith: Really? Bitchin'. Like what?
Robin: The inscription from the Monkey Talisman's back, provided by Angel's Photographic memory, when translated reveal it to hold the power of Transformation. Angel thinks that's how the senior Partners changed into Klanac Demons to go in and out of our plain.
Faith: Dang. What about the Pig?
Robin: We won't know til we find it and translate it.
Faith: Where is it?
Robin: Spike's Vision suggests that its in some temple in Cost Rica.
Faith: Do they even have temples in Costa Rica?
Robin: They have at least one. And we get to see it.
He gets up and walks out of the office.
Faith: Huh?
She gets up and follows.

Angel: Ya know, you make me so angry I-
Lindsey: Like You don't piss me off! I look at you and all I wanna do is just spit in your face!
Angel: Just try it and see what happens! In fact, go ahead, I dare you, Spit on me!
Lindsey immediately starts sucking up his Saliva. Angel's Eyes go wide.

Spike is in the middle of the room pounding a punching bag.
Spike: Bloody Principal. (Still punching) He makes one more crack about my hair and I'll- (He starts pounding harder)
Demon: (O.S) You can't get along with anyone, can you vampire.
Spike turns toward the doorway.
Spike: (Surprised) You?
The camera cuts to the door revealing: The demon that gave Spike his soul.
Demon: How's the new soul working out for you? The last time I saw you, you were babbling incoherently as you left my cave. Something about being sorry.
Spike starts to saunter over to the demon until he is face to face.
Spike: It's had it's ups and downs. Got me killed this one time.
Demon: Souls always do.
Spike: What are you doing here?
Demon: I want something from you vampire.
Spike: You want something from me? You're a wish-granting demon! What could you possibly want from me?
Demon: Believe it or not vampire… I need your help.
The demon suddenly collapses and Spike catches him.

INT. CARITAS
A short, red demon is on stage singing The theme from fiddler on the roof. Illyria sits at the bar clutching a drink. Lorne walks over. He is wearing a stylish purple suit.
Lorne: (To Bartender) Dave you know the drill, (He taps the bar) Si Vou Plez?
Lorne sits next to Illyria as the bartender hands him a sea breeze.
Lorne: (Taking the drink) Ooh, you are a peach. (He takes a sip) Well, you certainly seem to be coming down here a lot lately. And, (pointing to the drink) Having a lot of those lately.
Illyria: This place is not as horrid as the outside world. It reminds my of my court room. And this brew…It somewhat eases my feelings of disgust of this world.
Lorne: That's called getting a buzz. I thought you were finally getting used to this world.
Illyria: I shall never get used to this place. I refuse to. It is beneath me.
Lorne: Oh can we please not start this whole holier than thou thing again?
Illyria: holy? Do you mock me?
Lorne: No, I don't mock you. I take it your not enjoying your new position here at Angel Investigations?
Illyria: It is a mockery.
Lorne: Again with the mocking? Listen mocking bird, Just stick with Angel, and things will be okay.
Illyria: They will.
Lorne: Say what?
Illyria: You told me that I should stick with Angel and my path will become clear. And he has indeed shown me my destiny.
She gets up and starts to leave. Lorne gets up.
Lorne: Woah. Wanna run that by me again?
Illyria: My empire is dust. I have nothing left. Until recent events Angel's empire was dust as well and he had nothing left.
Lorne: Okay, with you so far.
Illyria: He destroyed the leaders of the Wolf the Ram and the Hart and took their empire as his own. He is a mere vampire. Even in my weakened state I am far stronger than a common vampire. If I want what I had, I must do as he did. I must kill Angel and take his empire as my own.
She leaves.
Lorne: What? No. No you mustn't!
INT. ANGEL'S OFFICE
Angel sits at his desk. Lindsey sits on the couch. Angel finishes wiping his face with a towel and tosses it on his desk. Lindsey is holding a bag of ice to his face.
Lindsey: We're really gonna have to find a way to get along.
Angel: Not gonna happen. I'm still working on Spike.
Lindsey: He's not such a bad guy.
Angel: Shut up.
Lindsey remains silent. Suddenly his cell phone rings. He answers it. A few moments later he hangs up.
Angel: Well?
Lindsey just stares at him.
Angel: (Sighs) You can talk.
Lindsey: They need you down in medroom seven.
Angel: Medroom seven? Isn't that demon resources? That's Spike's department.
Lindsey: Yeah, he's the one who called.
INT. MEDROOM
Spike sits next to the demon who is laying in bed. The demon is covered in bandages. Angel is standing in front of the demon.
Angel: You're the demon that gave Spike his soul?
Spike: Yeah, Lloyd here grants wishes to demons.
Angel: Lloyd? Your name's Lloyd?
Llyod: It's not something That I like to get out.
Spike: Anyway…Lloyd here is the darkest of the dark demon sorcerers. If a demon comes to him and wants something, he gives it to them if they pass a trial of sorts. And now there's something out there trying to kill him.
Angel: what is it?
Lloyd: A demon far darker than myself.
INT. CAVE
AFRICA
A man enters the cave and begins to look around. He is rather tall, and pale. His left eye is yellow, with a scar running across it.
Lloyd: Looking for me?
Man: Yes. I am. My name is Saladin. I am a-
Lloyd: A Kathros demon. I have not seen your kind in many years. What is is it that you want from my kathros?
Saladin: I want what every self respecting demon wants. Power. Specifically yours.
Lloyd laughs maniacally
Lloyd: Is that so?
Saladin: Yes. It is. I collect powers. I kill the power holder and then take their power as my own. I have already cast the necessary spell on you. Once you die, your powers are mine.
Lloyd: You think you can kill me. I am the greatest warrior this world has ever known.
Saladin: If you say so.
Saladin raises his hand and a large bolt of lightning launches from his hand into Lloyd. He screams in pain and collapses on his knees.
INT. MEDROOM
Lloyd: We fought for hours. I was defeated. Broken and beaten as you see me know.
Angel: Then what?
Lloyd: I escaped. To Budapest. I thought I could rest and recover. But he found me. Everywhere I went he followed. I began to search for a way to defeat him. But instead I found out that the Vampire who came to me for a soul had become a champion. So I came here to seek your aid. Even now he is here in L.A. hot on my trail as they say.
Angel: And you want us to save your life?
Lloyd: That's the idea.
Angel: No.
Spike: Thanks for stopping bye.
Lloyd: Wait!
Angel: Let me get this straight. Your Evil. You give the forces of darkness whatever they want so they have a better shot at killing people like me.
Lloyd: Exactly.
Angel: I think the world would be better off if you were dead.
Spike: That being said, Why on earth would we ever help you.
Lloyd: Because…If you do not, I will remove your Soul. Both your souls.

Spike: You can't do that.
Lloyd: Oh no? I gave you your soul vampire, and I can just as easily take it.
Angel: You didn't give me mine.
Lloyd: No, but I am one who grants wishes to demons. I am a demon, and I indeed have a wish. You have no choice but to help me.
As the demon laughs, Angel super speeds across the room and seizes him by the throat.
Angel: Or we could kill you right now.
Lloyd: And as I die, with my last ounce of consciousness I will remove your souls.
Angel slowly lets go of the demon and backs off.
Lloyd: So unless you want Angelus, and William the bloody to start tearing through this place, and through your friends…I suggest you find and kill my demon.
INT. TEMPLE
Robin and Faith are walking the halls of the temple, looking around. Robin leads carrying a torch as Faith follows behind him.

Robin and Faith continue down the hallway.
Faith: So.
Robin: So.
Faith: You and Spike have been arguing a lot lately.
Robin: Oh no, we're best friends really.
Faith: I'm just sayin-
Robin: Don't. I thought we agreed you'd drop this.
Faith: I had all intentions of dropping it, but Angel wanted me to talk to you about it.
Robin: Why?
Faith: Oh I don't know, maybe because during your last argument you hit Angel.
Robin: I was aiming at Spike.
Faith: I kinda think that's the point.
Robin: I'm doing my best.
Faith: You need to do better.
Robin: He killed my mother. You people may have think I've forgotten about that, but I haven't. Now can we please talk about something else?
Faith: Fine. My turn. I spy with my little Eye something that starts with….D.
Robin: Door?
Faith: Nope.
Robin: Okay, I give up, what starts with D?

Robin: It's the Fist. They must be here for the talisman.
Faith: Thank you captain Obvious.

Angel goes over to the phone and picks it up.
Spike: What are you doing?
Angel: (Into phone) Lindsey. I need a strike team. (Beat) A demon named Salidan. (Beat) I want him dead.
He hangs up. Spike shoots Angel an annoyed glance.

Angel: That's why we have them.
Spike: Oh ya know what, that's fine. You do things your way….And I'm gonna go kill me a demon. With my bare hands. Call me a sucker for tradition.
He leaves as Lorne enters.
Lorne: Hey, I really need to have a word with you.
Angel: Lorne I don't have time right now.
Lorne: It's kinda important there chief.
Angel: Fine Lorne, what is it?

Robin: You're the leader of the Fist.
Ethan: Quite. And the talismans are mine.

INT. ANGEL'S OFFICE
Angel: What about Illyria?
Lorne: She's here to kill you.
Angel: What?
Lorne: Well, she sort of thinks that she can regain her empire by killing you and taking yours.
Angel: This is what you meant when you said you'd put her on her path?
Lorne: More or less.
Angel: Go. And Tell Lindsey to send up some Black ops or something.
Lorne: Will do. Have fun disemboweling each other.
Lorne leaves.
Angel: So, You finally decided to betray me.
Illyria: You are not surprised by this.
Angel: Not really. I knew you'd turn against me sooner or later. You're a demon. You have no soul, so you have no sense of loyalty.
Illyria: I care not for your feeble rants of loyalty and morals. When I rule this world again I will decide what is moral.
Angel: That's never going to happen.
Illyria: I think you over estimate your abilities Half-breed.
Angel: You really think you can kill me in your weakened state?
Illyria: I am strong enough to kill you vampire.
Angel: Let's find out.
Angel and Illyria engage in hand-to-hand combat now, fighting with punches, headbutts and kicks. Illyria smacks Angel, sending him across the room. Angel gets up and tries to hit her over the head with a statue, but to no avail—She shoves him back across the room. Angel picks himself up and attacks her, punching her repeatedly, but not really hurting her. Suddenly Four armed men pile into the office.
Angel: Destroy her!
The four of them raise their weapons and open fire. Illaryia grabs Angel and uses him as a shield. The bullets pour into Angel. A few of them go through him into Illyria. She winces in pain as the firing stops. She tosses Angel at the men who try to catch him, but fall down instead. Illyria storms out of the office.

Angel and Spike turn to see a doctor standing there.
Angel: Who are you?
Doctor: I'm doctor Waldorf. Head of the practical science dempartment.
Angel: What is it.
Doctor: I took the liberty of testing the blood that Illyria left behind in your recent skirmish.
Spike: Skirmish? More like ass kickin'
Doctor Waldorf: The results aren't encouraging.
Angel: What did you find?
Dr. Waldorf: You recall when Illyria became unstable?
Angel: Right.
Waldorf: As you know Mr. Wyndam-Pryce used a device to drain her of her powers.
Angel: Yeah.
Waldorf: Apparently, the power drain was only temporary.
Spike and Angel exchange glances then look back to the doctor.
Angel: What does that mean?
Waldorf: Her power is rebuilding. It will continue to do so until she regains her full power. The she'll drain and the process will begin again.
Angel: So how do we kill her?
Waldorf: Well by now, she probably realizes she's getting stronger. By the time she chooses to attack again…I don't think we can kill her.
Angel: There has to be a way.
Spike: Maybe we don't have to kill her. Maybe we just have to stop her.
Angel: What do you mean?
Spike: I've got an idea. But we gotta kill Salidan first.
Angel: If this is about revenge or-
Spike: Trust me.

Shen-du: Spare me you're excuses human. I want my talismans. Are you forgetting our arrangement.
Ethan: No, mighty Shen-Du.
Shen-Du: You only receive the bands of Kalnor once you have freed me.
Ethan: I know Shen-Du. You must be patient.
Shen-Du: Patient! You dare to try and Tell me about patience! I have been trapped in this statue since man first walked on this earth! I have the patience of a saint! And the wrath of a god! Do not forget this Ethan Rayne. For if you lose one more talisman, You will learn the price of failure.
INT. MEDROOM.
Lloyd: What do you hope to accomplish by this Vampire?
Spike: I hope to stop Illyria before she kills us all.
Lloyd: No. There is more to this than that vampire.
Spike: Well that's my business then.
Lloyd: What you ask cannot be done vampire.
Spike: You've done it before. I know you have.
Lloyd: As with all wishes, it requires that you complete a trial.
Spike: I'd say killin Saladin would be one hell of a trial.
Lloyd: Very well. Kill the demon, and it is yours. No, It's hers. That's the whole point.

Angel: Did you just call me a friend?
Spike: What? No.
Angel: Yes you did.
Spike: No, I didn't.
Angel: I didn't know we were friends. Come here give me a hug friend.
Angel moves toward Spike but Spike stops him.
Angel: Stop it.
Saladin: Ahem. Can we get to the killing now?
Angel: Yeah sure.
Angel reaches into his pocket and throws and Orb at Saladin. It hits him and Shatter. A powder covers him and then seeps into him.
Saladin: What-
Angel: Little gift from the boys in practical magick.
Spike: That should take care of your fancy magick tricks for an hour or so.
Saladin looks worried. Angel and Spike both vamp out.
Spike: Ding, ding, ding.
Angel: Round two.
The two rush at the demon. The demon attempts to fend them off, but without his magick he is useless. Angel hold him and Spike Snaps his neck. He Drops to the floor dead.

Illyria: But I'm so good at it.

Spike swings at Illyria, who catches his punch and knees him between the
Legs.

Spike punches her in the stomach which she clutches in pain.
Spike: Come on Lloyd, don't let me down.
She swings a low kick at Spike's ankles. He jumps to avoid her kick. Illyria punches him in the face, knocking him back a few steps. Spike starts charging at Illyria again, but with a wave of her hand she slows time. Spike is soaring through the air toward her at a snail's pace as she walks normally past him. When he reaches the floor, he's back to normal time. He looks around, confused at not seeing Illyria. He turns to see her standing behind him.
Spike: I see you've gotten your favorite trick back.
Illyria: I am now as I was.
Illyria kicks Spike hard in the stomach, sending him across the room.
He hits the wall and collapses. He gets back up and Illyria kicks Spike in the face. Spike punches Illyria in the face with all his might. Her head turns slightly
at being punched, but it doesn't seem to faze her as she backhands him,
sending him across the room and into the door. She smiles.
Illyria: Now you die.
Spike: You won't do this. I know you like me.
Illyria: That is neither here nor there. I will kill you, then your leader and I will be victorious.
She grabs his collar and begins rapidly punching him in the face. Soon he is all bloody.
Spike: Don't. You can change. I did.
Illyria: You have a soul.

INT. ANGEL'S OFFICE
Angel Sits at his desk. Spike sits on the couch icing his head, much as Lindsey did. Robin and Faith are standing in front of the desk. Lorne is in the corner.
Robin: He did what?
Angel: He gave her a soul.
Faith: So, what she's like you guys now.
Spike: More or less.
Robin: Why did you-
Spike: It was the only thing I could think of to stop her.
Lorne: At least we don't have to worry about her trying to kill us anymore. Right. I mean, she'll be to busy with the grief and pain right?
Spike: We were.
Angel: And she's killed a lot more than we ever did.
Spike: And that's saying a lot.
Angel: So about this guy you two found.
Faith: I didn't like him. He was all British and Smarmy.
Robin: He knew who we were.
Angel: I'm sure we haven't seen the last of him. We should…
Angel stares At the door. The others turn to see Illyria standing there.
Illyria: I….
Spike: Go on Luv.
Illyria: I…I am sorry.
