Quote from Debra in The Children's Book
Debra: You're lying to me. Ray: You got that from "yep"? Debra: No. I listened outside of Ally's door. Ray: Why would you do that? Debra: Because I knew you would lie to me. Ray: Yeah, I lied, but the nice way. Debra: I don't need you to protect my feelings, Ray. Don't you think I can handle it that I write a children's story and my own daughter doesn't like it? Ray: Of course you can. Debra: Yeah, yeah, yeah. First, you win, then you rob me of the opportunity to lose with dignity. Ray: I think you lost that when you listened at the door. Debra: Fine, Ray. You know, I try to do something to make me feel better about myself and I end up making you feel better about yourself.
