'The thing is, though, babe - the thing is, sweetheart - with me, you get three strikes and you're out. Three strikes. I, 2, 3, and I'm done, babe. You wave your hands at me - one strike. You expect me not to wait until today - until today - to have this conversation - one strike. You tell me not to be silly - one strike. That's three strikes in one conversation, babe. That's disrespectful. Not anticipating what I'm thinking and feeling, like Ashleigh does, before I think and feel it - that's another strike. That's four in one conversation. That's emotionally void, babe. Emotionally void. Like when something is void but also emotional. I can't be doing with that. I'm done. You want an argument with me, sweetheart - you want an argument with me - you better wait until I decide what to have an argument about. I'm walking across the room, babe - that's my space - don't even go there. I choose to confide in you and you actually keep the confidence - that's another strike, right there. Five strikes. All my friends in this place - all my friends - know what I've been going through. I swear to God, I've been waiting for a clown to walk through that door for five weeks now. Five weeks. And when did you once say to me, 'Shievonne, I'm sorry for your phobia of squirty flowers and big shoes'? Ashleigh would say that to me - Ashleigh's got rid of all the big shoes in the house. And all the balloon animals they hide behind the mirrors that stare out at me. Catherine will agree with me, won't you, Catherine? Catherine! Catherine! Why's Catherine not turning around?'
