Joan

Why do you deliberately defy me?

Christina

Why did you tell her I got expelled?!

Joan

Because you did get expelled.

Christina

That... is a lie.

Joan

[smacking Christina hard across the face twice]

You love it, don't you? YOU LOVE TO MAKE ME HIT YOU!

Barbara

Joan!

Joan

Barbara, PLEASE! PLEASE, Barbara. Leave us alone, Barbara. If you need anything, ask Carol Ann. [laughs bitterly] This is wonderful. THIS IS WONDERFUL. YOU - You deliberately embarrassed me in front of a REPORTER. A REPORTER. I told you how important this was to me, I TOLD YOU.
