As Nadine approached Ms. Holloway, the teacher looked her over carefully. "It is unfortunate, Ms. Ferguson, that there are certain expectations that others have about cheerleaders. Certain ideas of what they should look like and how they should act, for example."
"Wh-what are you talking about?" Nadine asked.
"Unfortunately, your current wardrobe and...religious inclinations are less than ideal for a cheerleader." Ms. Holloway said.
"S-so you want me to dress like a slot and forsake God, is that it?" Nadine asked, shocked.

Everyone looked at the new Nadine in shock, but it was Jay who spoke first.
"Um...Nadine? Are you alright?" he asked.

"I would ask you not to refer to it as 'God shit', Trevor." Nadine said. "It is disrespectful to those of us who do not wish to forsake our souls."

"I am not here to make unnecessary changes, Ms. McMillan. I am here to create a team." Ms. Holloway said. "Ms. Ferguson's beliefs will not interfere with the squad, so there was no need to alter it."
"You changed her bod..." Randy said. "How are you doing this?"
"The short answer would be magic, Mr. Goodman." Ms. Holloway said. "Now, moving forward. Mr. Lettman, if you would."
Derek looked around. "I don't really want to..." he said.
"Mr. Lettman, the sooner you come forward, the sooner we can all go about our days.
Derek looked around again and sighed. "You managed to get us all here, so I'm guessing I really don't have a choice..." he said, stepping forward.
"That's the spirit, Derek." Sarah said, smiling.
