Angel cast Dox a light glance and said flatly, "You want to watch the show that badly?"
Dox chuckled without answering directly, instead speaking to Angel through the Mind Tether. "You won't kill him anyway. Giving him a little punishment and letting him see how treacherous the world can be wouldn't be bad. If you can't think of a punishment, I can help you."
