Dez:
So I guess Ginny and your brother's not happening, huh?

Melanie:
Not for like years.

Dez:
What happened?

Melanie:
She's into someone else.

Dez:
Why? Charlie's cool.

Melanie:
It wasn't so much why, it was the why nots. And she likes this other guy.

Dez:
Huh. Kinda thought for a while there'd be a double-date thing or something.

Melanie:
You mean you and me?

Dez:
Yeah.

Melanie:
No.

Dez:
Why not?

Melanie:
Because.

Dez:
My mom says because is a word, not a reason.

Melanie:
Well, that's the reason. Because, okay? Because.

Dez:
So you can't think of a reason why?

Melanie:
I don't know.

Dez:
If you can't think of a reason why, can you think of a reason why not?

Melanie:
Not offhand.

Dez:
Then why not?
