Pero si yo ganó, entonces tienes que estar de acuerdo para ser mi novia. Avery tomó la mano que le ofrecia y dio una sonrisa como reconocimiento. —Y si ganó entonces tengo que serlo. ↗
Cheryl's growing awareness of her emotional difficulties was leading her to research multiple personality.

Wait, we can not break bread with you. You have taken the land which is rightfully ours. Years from now my people will be forced to live in mobile homes on reservations. Your people will wear cardigans, and drink highballs. We will sell our bracelets by the road sides, and you will play golf, and eat hot h'ors d'ourves. My people will have pain and degradation. Your people will have stick shifts. The gods of my tribe have spoken. They said do not trust the pilgrims, especially Sarah Miller. And for all of these reasons I have decided to scalp you and burn your village to the ground. ↗
