GILES: Hello, Jenny.

JENNY: Rupert. Hi.

GILES: Some of your, uh, textbooks were delivered to the library. Um, do you want me to, uh, hang on to them?

JENNY: Yeah, that's fine. I'll send the kids by to pick 'em up.

GILES: Right. Good. (starts out)

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.

GILES: Sorry. I certainly don't mean to make, um, 'dog eyes'... at you. I'm just...

JENNY: Worried. I know.

GILES: I shouldn't have bothered you.
