In the present, Lawson asks Angel if his actions on the sub were motivated by selfishness. Angel attacks Lawson, reminding him that he said he would kill him next time they meet; however, Lawson reveals Angel's captured friends. Back on the sub, Spike demands to be called "Captain", and Angel assures Lawson he can control Spike. Angel must stake the Prince of Lies after he attacks a captured Nazi, revealing the Prince as a vampire. After Angel and Spike interrogate him, the Nazi admits to having performed mind control experiments on vampires. Enraged, Spike again threatens to kill the entire crew, but Angel and Lawson stop him. Lawson insists the Americans have no similar plans. Angel orders the Nazi's report burned. Believing that Angel is playing both sides, Spike expresses both surprise and respect.
