Keen, clearly annoyed, retorted, "Ms. Pearce buys me all sorts of delicious stuff!" Marvin nodded knowingly, "Oh yeah, until you end up with a stomachache."

Keen protested, "Ms. Pearce cooks for me herself."

Marvin chuckled, "Ah, like that seafood chowder that almost sent you to the ER."

Keen tried again, "Ms. Pearce can play the violin..."

Marvin interrupted with a shrug, "Well, she's no match for Stella."
