Dexter told Delilah that he knows it is his 4th birthday, but Mom putting candles in his dinner was over-the-top. He said he just wanted his dinner which was already 2 whole minutes late.
Delilah told Dexter that she thought the candles were quite pretty and worth a sniff or two.
Dexter didn't answer because his mouth was full of "Tender Beef with Liver."
