    Meera: Exercise.
    Marjorie: No, I'll tell you what you should be doing, Chris, and that's getting some exercise. [to Meera] Oh, that reminds me, a lot of hidden calories in curry. You can exercise anything really, football, jogging... football. I do ten minutes of six step aerobics every month, and that's why I'm so thin.
    Chris: You're not thin, you're fat.
    Marjorie: I'm sorry?!
    Meera, Pat, Paul: Not thin, you're fat.
    Marjorie: You heard what he said! There'll be no name calling in this class! Do you hear me?! [upsettingly gets up from her seat] Oh, that hurt! That really did hurt! [stands for a bit] I know you're new, Christopher. But that's not how we do things here at Fat Fighters, all right? Right, we'll move on. We'll put it behind us. Our presentation topic today "Legal & Illegal Foods." Chrissy, do you want to give me a hand with the board? [quietly to Chris] You ever do anything like that again. I'm gonna kill your mum.
