BUFFY: Well, this is a surprise of the nicest kind.
RILEY: Now it's my turn to be surprised. I thought we had plans today.
BUFFY: Plans? We planned plans?
RILEY: Well, you said, uh, "come over tomorrow and we'll hang," and then I said, "OK." Not the invasion of Normandy, but still a plan.
BUFFY: Right.
RILEY: We're not hangin' today, are we?
BUFFY: Giles is on his way to pick me up.
RILEY: Oh, slayer training.
BUFFY: Slayer shopping, actually, but equally as important.
RILEY: I have no doubt. Okay, well, we'll hook up later.
BUFFY: Are you mad at me?
RILEY: Oh, no, not at all. I'm plotting your death, but in a happy way.
