Anya, I think wed get more customers in here if you didnt follow them around so
Wed get more customers in here if we had a gimmick. Besides, if I didnt follow them around, they might steal something.
Not every customer we have is going to be a thief Anya. What are they going to steal? A pickled eye ball?
Which is worth about twenty dollars!
Twenty dollars have you raised the prices again?
Well, yes. We were getting taken Giles, an eyeball has to be worth more than ten dollars.
Anya..
At least twenty
Anya!
Plus tax.
ANYA!!
Well, what is it?
Tomorrow, were going to go through the store, and youre going to tell me all the prices that you raised.
Its my store too.
Yes but it was mine first.
Beauty before brains.
Age before beauty.
Are you forgetting how old I am?
I yes. I suppose I am.
Yes, dont back talk to your elders. I read in a book - that it was disrespectful.
Anya?
Be so kind as to close your mouth.

Giles?
What is it?
Do you think Im beautiful?
E-excuse me?
Beautiful? Sexy? Desirable?
Of-of course, from a purely detached stand point. Youre quite desirable.
I thought so. A customer just hit on me. Did wonders for my ego. So did you. Thanks!
Y- youre welcome.

So when are you going back across the ocean?
Eager to see me leave?
Not really. Its very boring her all day without someone to talk to. Even with money to entertain me.
So - youre not trying to rush me out of house and home?
No. I dont think Id mind if you stuck around for a while. Just a little while.
Ill take that into consideration.
Okay.
And Anya?
Yes?
Its okay if you want me to stay.
* * *
Have you talked to Xander?
Yes.
Well?
He wants me back.
Oh.
Im not sure if I can ever be with him again though.
Oh?
I dont know.
Dont you love him?
Anya?
I think Xander and I were like a pair of well worn tennis shoes, Giles. I loved us, but now I see all these holes that werent there before. I cant be with him anymore.
Oh thats
Ooh, customer. Giles, take off that strange look on your face. Youll scare him away.
Yes. Right. Of course.

Its late.
I think Im going to go to the hotel. Money is good, but I cant make it if I dont get any sleep.
Okay, goodnight
Giles, before I go, one more thing.
Whats that?
Are you ever going to kiss me again?
Giles?
End.
See? No plot to speak of, Im so ashamed. Just a shameless little conversation piece because I was bored and the computer was just sitting here all by its lonesome.
