Taylor: You don't need to "just say" that, Mom.

Janine: See, this is the kind of open dialogue that I'm hoping to have with this parent later...
Taylor: Well, I'm sorry we can't all be Saint Barbara.
Janine: Well, I wasn't saying she was like a saint, saint. She hasn't been recognized by the church, I don't think.
