Jake: Bull? Bull Tippit? Coach Tippit: Jake Matthews? Wow, how long has it been...? Jake: Too long, old buddy. And who do we have here? Coach Tippit: This is my daughter, Edith. Jake: Nice to meet you, Edith. This is my daughter, Amanda. We've been shopping for a dress for her reception at the ballet theater. She has the principal role of "Clara" in "The Nutcracker"...steals the show. She was also voted the "Winter Festival Queen" at her expensive private school. Amanda is captain of a champion cheer squad, and she's one of the top-ranked equestrain riders in the state. She's also president of "future debutantes against global warming." Listen, we gotta run. We need to reserve a limo for the reception. There's a lot more info about Amanda on her web page. Here, check it out. Nice seeing you. Edith: Wow, a "trophy daughter." I guess I'm kind of a "runner-up plaque daughter." Coach Tippit: Nonsense. You're pure gold, girl. Do you know how to set up a web page? Edith: You do that, and I'm gone with the first carnival that rolls through town.
She may be all that, but by the look on her face and the time she must put into all that, I seriously doubt she has any real friends.
