Amy:
[at dinner table]
So, honey, um, guess who I ran into today... Sue, George's mother... do you remember George? You went to science camp with him. He was a smart kid.
Maria:
I don't remember.
[just toying with her food]

Amy:
Curious George, that's what you called him. Anyway, he remembers you very fondly from science camp. So, I was thinking that maybe...
Maria:
No.
Amy:
Um, Maria, you don't even know what I was gonna say next.
Maria:
Just... don't.
Amy:
Fine. If you don't wanna hear the rest of what I was gonna say...
Dan:
No, she does. You know your mother's trying to be helpful, right? Right?
Maria:
Right.
Amy:
Here is my idea. Just that... You're here and George is here, and you both like each other, so... if Winter Prom is coming up, you could both go together.
Maria:
Mom, I'm not going to the prom.
Amy:
Why not?
Maria:
Because it's stupid and I don't want any part of it.
Amy:
But it's such a beautiful tradition. You're really gonna be missing out. It's your senior year.
Maria:
[yells out]
Missing out on what?
[utensils clatter into plate as she rises and storms out]

Dan:
That went well.
Amy:
[sighs]
I guess she just needs time to come out of her shell.
Dan:
Christ, Amy, she's nearly eighteen.
Amy:
Well, she's a late bloomer.
Dan:
She has no friends.
Amy:
She's friends with Lily.
Dan:
Lily's a habit, not a friend. She has no social life. She has no confidence. As far as I'm aware, she's never even had a conversation with a boy. She doesn't...
[gestures at plate]

Dan:
touch her food. She weighs less than she did two years ago. Wake up, Amy! Just look at her! Look at her!
[Maria is sitting at the top of the stairs, very upset overhearing all of this]

Dan:
We have a screwed-up daughter!
Amy:
You're being too hard on her. We just need to give her time to blossom.
Dan:
Blossom into what?
