"How did you know it was my birthday?"
Carol just smiles.
Tony unwraps the gift, then starts laughing. "A Lara Croft action figure?"
She shrugs. "I saw it and thought of you. I couldn't resist."
"Which begs the question: What were you doing in the toy aisle anyway?"
Carol says nothing as she picks up the wine bottle and refills both their glasses.
"Right." Tony opens the box, then takes out the figuring and sets it on the coffee-table. "I thought she'd be bigger in real life."
"Hmm."
"When is your birthday, Carol?"
He's not surprised that she doesn't respond.
