Eric makes clear he doesn't want a birthday party this year. Meanwhile, Donna doesn't know where she stands after kissing Eric.

Quote from Laurie

Laurie: Okay, I'd love to stay, but I'm leaving.
Eric: Hey, buy us some beers? We'll pay double.
Laurie: Do you really think that beer will make your little party better?
All: Yes.
Laurie: I admit it would give you young people a sense of maturity but it would be a false maturity, and that would be wrong.
Eric: So you're not going to do it?
Laurie: Of course not. Now, I'm going off to join my legal friends at a party with a keg. Bye.

Quote from Kelso

Kelso: So, Laurie where's the party? You know, maybe we'll cruise by later.
Laurie: In your dreams, you idiot. [exits]
Kelso: Okay, you guys had to see that.

Quote from Jackie

Jackie: Wait on the porch, and I'll get Eric.
Donna: It's dark out there.
Jackie: And you're giving him a candle. Yeah. Here, matches.
Donna: He might not want to light it.
Jackie: Don't say that. Don't even think it. Now, when he opens it, he'll say cool... or something. And then you give him a look like this.

Quote from Donna

Eric: Oh, a sand candle. This is very cool.
Donna: Oh, it's nothing.
Eric: Are you okay?
Donna: Oh, I'm fine. Yeah.
Eric: 'Cause you had a look like you might be sick or something.
Donna: I am just being completely stupid.
Eric: Hey, that's my job.
Donna: I was worried about the gift.
Eric: Why? This is a very cool gift. I'd light it if I had matches.
Donna: Oh, here.
Eric: You thought of everything.
Donna: Well, happy birthday.
