BrendaDaaeDestler: I'm sorry, I misunderstood. (She pulls out a bag.) it's a pack of onesies.

Maya: Brenda, what in the world?

Brenda: I am sorry, I missed the memo. We were giving her attributes?

Erik: Just think of one you can give her now.

Brenda: Any attribute? There's so many to choose from.

Maya: Brenda, come on. You're making us look bad.

Brenda: Ok... The gift of sight.

Erik: She already has sight. Give her something she doesn't have...

Brenda: The gift of a tail?

Maya: (Terrified.) No.

Brenda: The gift of being able to sneeze with your eyes open.

Erik: What-Why would you say that?

Brenda: I just read an article that said it was impossible and I wanted to reach for the stars.

Maya: Come on Brenda. Something else.

Brenda: Oh I'm sorry. I did not realize how great of gifts 'beauty' and 'song' are. What are your largest dream for her to become Miss America?
