JOYCE: Admit it. Some days don't you wanna just wake up and say to Hell with the diet? Wanna make waffles? Big Saturday brunch?

BUFFY: No, thanks. I'm not really that hungry.

JOYCE: So, what did you and Faith do last night?

BUFFY: Nothing. Uh... (smiles thinly) Nothing really important.

JOYCE: Don't worry. I'm not gonna meddle in your slaying. Just as long as you're careful.

BUFFY: I am.

JOYCE: You sure about those waffles?

BUFFY: Yeah. But if you want them, I can help you make them.

JOYCE: No. (sighs) They only don't have calories if I make them for you. (Buffy doesn't get it) Mom logic. You, uh, done with the paper?

BUFFY: Yeah.

JOYCE: Let's see what's happening in Sunnydale.
