Mavis Gary:
Hey, do you know this girl named Beth? She married Buddy Slade from school.

Sandra Freehauf:
Yeah, I know that Beth.

Mavis Gary:
What do you think of her?

Sandra Freehauf:
I don't really like her. I mean, I think you're way prettier than she is. What happened to your dress? I'm sorry, did I say something wrong? Sh*t. What's wrong? What did I say?

Mavis Gary:
I have a lot of problems.

Sandra Freehauf:
Can't you get a new dress?

Mavis Gary:
It's really difficult for me to be happy. And then for other people it just seems so simple. I know. They just grow up and they're so fulfilled.

Sandra Freehauf:
I don't feel fulfilled. And frankly, if you don't feel fulfilled with all the stuff that you have.

Mavis Gary:
I need to change, Sandra.

Sandra Freehauf:
No you don't.

Mavis Gary:
What?

Sandra Freehauf:
You're the only person in Mercury who could write a book or wear a dress like that.

Mavis Gary:
I'm sure there's plenty of other people who could.

Sandra Freehauf:
Everyone here is fat and dumb.

Mavis Gary:
Don't say that. I mean, you think so?

Sandra Freehauf:
Everyone wishes that they could be like you. You know, living in the big city all famous and beautiful and all that.

Mavis Gary:
I'm not really famous.

Sandra Freehauf:
Well, you know, special or whatever. I mean, some days when I have a slow shift at work I'll sit and think about you living in your cool apartment, going out and stuff. It seems really nice.

Mavis Gary:
Yeah, but most people here seem so happy with so little. It's like they don't even seem to care what happens to them.

Sandra Freehauf:
That's because it doesn't matter what happens to them. They're nothing. Might as well die. F*** Mercury.
