Episode Quotes
Holtz: What of England? Has it survived the years and destruction?
Sahjhan: Yes. It went through a rough patch about sixty years ago, but it's mostly unchanged. Warm beer, boiled meat, bad teeth. That's why I moved to LA. Have you followed this part of the history? American Revolution, manifest destiny, westward expansion, the Beach Boys?

Sahjhan: I'm not a man. - What I mean is...
Holtz: You're not human.
Sahjhan: But clearly masculine. You get that, right?

Sahjhan: I'll take you to them. Two centuries into the future.
Holtz: Through black magic and sorcery.
Sahjhan: No. On a mule cart. Of course through black magic and sorcery. I'm a demon.

Wesley: A boy. A boy. You're carrying a boy.
Darla: Great.
Angel: Gonna have a son. I'm gonna have a son.
Fred: Guys. As fascinating as an ultra-sound image of an unborn child may appear...
Angel: Me. A father. To a son. You know what that means?
Fred: We're surrounded by vampires?
Angel: No, it's a human bo...

Fred: You freaks make one move and I'll slice the miracle kid into triplets.
Cordelia: It's always the quiet ones.

Cordelia: You want me to protect the vampire bitch who bit me and her evil love child?



Cultural References
Sahjhan: Have you seen the American Revolution, Westward expansion, manifest destiny, and the Beach Boy?

American Revolution separated America from England.
Westward expansion expanded the territory of the Americas from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean. This was done through buying the land or conquering the possessors going by the policy of manifest destiny, which was to go from ocean to ocean.
The Beach boys were a music group in the 1960's.
