"I thought about that too." "By how were we supposed to know?" "I mean, it's not like she said something to me or to you that would-- Why would she?" "I dumped her, and you stopped being her friend." "She stopped being my friend." "Well, she didn't have another boyfriend after me, right?" "I don't know." "Maybe that's why she was so unhappy or" "Uh-uh." "No." "It" " It-- It's not our fault."

"Really?" "She's had all this bad stuff happen to her and she's still such a great kid." "Never feels sorry for herself, and always stands up for herself." "If there's one thing she's not, it's a pushover." "Pushover." "Right." "I'm kind of a pushover, aren't I?" "You?" "No." "No way." "No, I am."
