BUFFY: Are you okay?
JOYCE: I'm fine. Have you seen my conditioner?
BUFFY: Did you look under the sink?
Joyce realizes that's where it is and goes to retrieve it.
BUFFY: Where are you going?
JOYCE: Oh, I was hoping to put this off but... you know the nothing that I've been dealing with the last couple of weeks? It might not be nothing.
BUFFY: What is it?
JOYCE: I'm staying overnight at the hospital for observation. I'm getting a CAT scan.
Buffy doesn't know what to say. Joyce is quick to reassure her.
JOYCE: It's only one night and they say even if there is something, it's still very early if they didn't see it before. I'm going to be fine.
Buffy puts on a brave smile for her mother's sake.
BUFFY: I know you will.

~~Fool for Love~~
