"Not yet Charlotte. We gotta keep rehearsing."
"Why Diane?" Nancy says. "Are we even able to do the show with you being on probation and having to do community service?"
"If I keep up with my community service, we will be able to perform."
"Why do you have to do community service in the first place Diane?" Miranda's brother Marty asks. "I hear you were riding on a motorcycle without wearing a helmet.
Is that true?"
"Yes it is."
"Why did you take a risk like that? The helmet is for your own safety."
"I know. It was a mistake Marty, but I learned from it."
"That's good. Are you ready for me to turn the music on?"
