Lorne: Hey Angel, I think Connor needs some papa love.
Angel: He needs a lot of things. All day, every day.
Lorne: Yeah that's kinda how kids... (Angel interrupts)
Angel: Connor needs a bath, Connor needs a bottle. What Connor needs is to grow up.
Lorne: Something wrong?
Angel: Gosh, no Lorne, everything's just great. I got a kid that cries, pees, moans and never gives me a moment to myself.
(Connor starts crying)
Lorne: Oh, it's all right.
Angel: It's really not. Connor shut up!
Fred: Don't yell at him. He's just a baby.
Angel: He keeps it up, he's not gonna be a baby for long. (throws glass of blood) (edit) (Angel passes Connor to Wesley)
Angel: Take him. Yeah, it's alright, it's your Uncle Wes. He loves you bunches. He's just... English. (edit) Lilah: How'd you find me?
Angel: Your assistant.
Lilah: I'll have his arms broken.
Angel: Already taken care of. (edit) Holtz: (to Angel, about Connor) He'll be dead before I hit the ground.
Angel: I know. (edit) Angel: (to armed Wolfram & Hart men) Your bullets won't kill me, but mine will kill you. (edit)

As Wes tackles Lorne over the desk, you can see Andy Hallett's natural skin through the openings of his shirt sleeve.
(edit)
When Angel is fighting Holtz's vampires, you can see his leg reflected in the broken weapons cabinet when he raises it to kick one of them, it's a very quick shot but if you still your screen (On video or dvd) you can just see it.
(edit)
Just as Angel is running out of the hotel to chase down Wesley, he lifts a sword off of the ground. In the next scene, he steals one of Wolfram & Hart's trucks by pulling the two occupants out of the vehicle. His sword is nowhere in sight. Also, when he arrives at the final showdown, the only weapon he holds during the whole scene is a machine gun.
(edit)
When Justine approaches Wesley 'wounded', he is holding a gun in his right hand and the baby in his left arm. Had he fired the gun that near to Connor, he would have probably have made him deaf.
(edit)
In the overhead shot of the hotel lobby, Angel is a good distance away from the weapon cabinet. Then the shot cuts to a close-up of Angel and he's right at the weapon cabinet.
