Jenny: Pretty flimsy excuse for coming by to see me.
Giles: You should have heard the ones I threw out. I just, I wanted to, uh... see how you were doing.
Jenny: I'm doing pretty good, actually. I've stayed out of mortal danger for three whole weeks. I could get used to it. I'm still having trouble sleeping, though.
Giles: Oh, of course. Um... you, you, you need time.
Jenny: Or possibly space. Rupert, I know you're concerned. But having you constantly poking around, making little puppy dog eyes at me, wondering if I'm okay... You make me feel bad that I don't feel better. I don't want that responsibility.
