input: TEXT: In the Mayor's office. Faith is sitting at the desk with her eyes closed. A present is laying on the desk in front of her. The Mayor stands by her side. Mayor: Alright, you can open them up now. Faith sees the present and smiles up at him. Faith: Fab. What's the occasion? Mayor: Faith! As if I need a reason to show you my affection. Or appreciation for running a small errand at the airport. Faith: Airport? What's next? Gonna want me to help a buddy of yours move a sofa? Mayor: This isn't a free ride, young lady. You know, I'm beginning to think that somebody's getting a little spoiled. Maybe I should take this back. Faith: (clutches the present) Sorry... Sir. Mayor: That's my girl. (chuckles) Another cookie? (Faith takes one) Now. A package is arriving tomorrow night from Central America. Something, and I can't stress this enough, something crucially important to my Ascension. Without it... Well! What would Toll House cookies be without the chocolate chips? A pretty darn big disappointment, I can tell you. (giggles) Open your present. (she does) There. That look on your face is my reward. The present is a knife with an intricate design. Faith: This is a thing of beauty, boss. Mayor: Well, it cost a pretty penny. So, you just take good care of it. And you be careful not to put somebody's eye out with that thing, until I tell you to. Faith: Any particular eyes in mind? [SCENE_BREAK] Night, in a graveyard. Angel and Buffy are fighting a pair of vampires. Buffy trips her opponent into Angel's legs. Buffy: Sorry, honey! Angel: That's okay. They finish off both vampires. Buffy: Well, there's something you don't see every day. Unless, of course, you're me. Angel: That was bracing. Want to do another sweep? Buffy: It's what I live for. Sad to say. Angel: You too tired? Buffy: No.
