FRED: We're still working on a plan, but so far, it involves being sent to prison and becoming somebody's bitch.
ANGEL: Nobody's going to jail, Fred. I told you, a heist like this, I've done it a million times. OK, maybe twice, but I'm good at it, I swear.
GUNN: Uh, you're not counting the time we stole the crazy-making death shroud that nearly killed us right?
ANGEL: The point is, this is how we find Cordy, so this is what we're gonna do.
FRED: OK. I'm just gonna take these and go over the details and see if I can, I don't know, whip something up... Say, a plan. OK?
ANGEL: I'm really strong, if that helps.
