Molly took another bite of her apple and asked, "So, what sparked the fight?"

Nancy replied, "I had to stand up for a friend."

Molly paused for a moment, then asked, "So what does that make the three of us then? Friends? Enemies?"

When it comes to punishment, it's about who can pin the blame on someone else;

Molly nodded, munching on her apple, "I think so. Why else would we trick our dad without flinching?"
