GILES: Come up with anything yet?
XANDER: Well, candles, maybe, or bath oils of some kind.
BUFFY: I saw a really cute sweater at Bloomy's ... but, I think I want me to have it.
GILES: And you are talking about what on earth?
BUFFY: Tara's birthday. We're at a loss.
GILES: You're in a magic shop, and you can't think what Tara would like. I believe you're both profoundly stupid.
XANDER: Well, we don't really know ... the kind of things witches like. What, are we gonna get her some cheesy crystal ball?
GILES: Bloody well better not. I've got mine already wrapped.
