Back in Angel's office, Eve tells everyone the Senior Partners temporarily fixed things. She says that they don't know anything about Sirk's trick and are as angry as Angel is. Angel confesses to Gunn that Spike beat him in their fight – saying it was because Spike wanted it more. "What if it means that...I'm not the one?" Angel wonders. Elsewhere in L.A., Eve enters an apartment and undresses while gloating to someone off-camera that Angel and Spike fell for the cup story and Sirk disappeared without the Senior Partners knowing anything. In addition, the gang is wondering if they can trust the Senior Partners. She crawls into bed and it is revealed that she is with a tattooed Lindsey McDonald. "Well...it's a start," he replies.
