  Dani : I love Elvis so much.

  Maureen Trant : You love everybody so much.

  Dani : I do not.

  Maureen Trant : You do, too.

  Maureen Trant : Okay, you don't.

  Dani : Well, I don't. Maureen, sometimes you make me feel like such a baby.

  Maureen Trant : You are a baby.

  Dani : I wish I could be just like you.
