"Ooo~ Spooky~," Madeline giggled. "I wonder what you will do next, Bertha. Are you going to spread a rumor that I slept with every boy in the basketball club again? Or maybe a rumor that I'm pregnant at ten and secretly abort my baby at eleven?"
Madeline ignored the camera that had been following her and glared back at Bertha. "You dumb bitch. Just because your life is miserable doesn't mean I have to be miserable, too."

After Bertha left, Zane and Jasmin walked out of the room simultaneously. Jasmin hugged Madeline tightly and said, "Thank you for saving me, girl!"
"Y—You're choking me, J—Jasmin—"
"Oh, sorry," Jasmin said, releasing her hug. But she held Madeline's hand and said, "I can't believe we will be in the final together!"
"As enemies," Madeline giggled, but she felt relief knowing her friend would defeat her rather than Bertha or Elly.
