JOYCE: (re movie on tv) Did I miss anything?

BUFFY: Um... just some singing and some running around.

JOYCE: Mm. I'm sorry I didn't have time to make you a real cake.

BUFFY: No. This is good.

JOYCE: But we're still going shopping on Saturday. So what'd you do for your birthday? Did you have fun?

BUFFY: I got older.

JOYCE: You look the same to me. Happy Birthday. I don't have to sing, do I?

BUFFY: No.

JOYCE: Well, go on, make a wish.

BUFFY: I'll just let it burn.
