Holistic Boy offers Tay and his troops a red clay massage, adding, "We have hands that heal, brothers." Tay punches him, apparently snapping Holistic Boy's neck in the process. Damn, I liked that guy. Tay's troops move into the now-empty ice room. Angel and Jhiera suddenly drop from the ceiling and start busting heads. Wesley and Cordy pack the girls into crates on a truck. Wesley holds a girl's hand as he helps her climb into her box, and says, "My, what a firm grip. Very healthy." Then, much to my dismay, he says, "Suprisingly firm myself under the jacket. Have a feel?" From the way he's holding his arm out, I believe he's asking her to feel his biceps. At least, I hope and pray that's what he means. Cordy points out, "You're pathetic, and about to get your eyeballs fried!" and packs up the last girl. Jhiera and Angel are still battling when Wesley and Cordy run back in and join the fray. They are, naturally, grabbed by Vigories pretty quickly. Tay tells Angel to return Jhiera and the other girls to him, or he'll kill Wesley and Cordelia. Jhiera takes in the situation, responds, "Then they die," and leaves. Cordy and Wesley suddenly whack their elbows backward into their captors, and the struggle resumes. Wesley actually manages to do some kicking and look reasonably competent, and soon the Vigories run away.

Jhiera is hurrying to the truck when another Vigory grabs her from behind. Tay pops up with his Ronco brand ko-slicer, and prepares to do some snipping as Jhiera struggles to escape. Then Angel grabs Tay from behind. These people have got to learn to watch their backs. Angel tells the other Vigory, "Unless you want to see your leader dead, let her go." Jhiera is released, and stares at Angel for a moment until he shouts at her to go. Angel waits until the truck has a solid fifty-yard head start and then lets go of Tay. Angel tells Tay, "I don't want you bringing your war here again." Tay says, "I have no choice. If this enemy persists, our whole society crumbles." Angel responds, "And if it persists on my turf, you're gonna have another enemy." Tay says, "You don't understand our ways, human." Angel concedes that he doesn't, then vamps out and adds, "And I'm not human. Now if I were you, I'd grab the next portal out of here, got it?" Tay, rather inexplicably cowed by this, quietly turns to leave. Maybe his people don't have stakes.
