　　[00:00]K：I'm not holding my breath. It's so hard to stand out from all the other aspirants1, you know.
[00:05]So where were you all day?
[00:07]B：Truant with Troy.
[00:10]K：You look high on happy pills.
[00:12]B：Oh, God, Kimberly, he's a poet.
[00:14]K：That's what my mother called "damning2 with faint praise."
[00:17]B：Kimberly and Troy used to go out. Now that Troy and I are together, she could have been a green-eyed monster, but instead she's been really sweet about it.
