Marie: Debra, dear, you're being so quiet. That's not like you.
Debra: No, I'm fine. It's just- Do I look different to you?
Amy: What do you mean?

Marie: I wouldn't know about that.
Amy: Oh, stop it, Deb. You look great.
Marie: You know how my friends and I keep fit? Water aerobics at the "Y." Say, why don't you come with us tomorrow?
Debra: Oh, well, I'll have to check and see if I'm free.
Marie: Oh, we'll have a ball! Let me go look for an extra pair of nose clips and a swim cap.
