Angel walking in: "Connor. His name is Connor."
Doctor: "Connor. Thank you. Mr. (looks at the papers) Angel. (the nurse hands the baby to Angel) And congratulations."
Angel: "Thanks."
The Doctor and the nurse leave, as Angel smiles down at Connor.
Angel: "Hey... (Looks up) Mr. Angel?"
Fred: "Your first name is Geraldo."
Cordy: "We had to tell them something."
Fred: "Geraldo Angel. You’re a pet psychiatrist with a small practice in Pacoima. Oh, and you fight crime- We just told them the name part. The rest is me, having fun."
Angel: "I don't know what to say."
Cordy: "How about thanks. I appreciate it. You guys rock. Way to go?"
Angel looks up from Connor's face: "What she said."
