Fat Like Me: Difference between revisions

Line 20:

Upon hearing the news, [[Daria]] and [[Jane]] -- who've been making friendly wagers over everything from candy to the antics of [[Kevin]] and [[Anthony DeMartino|Mr. DeMartino]] -- make a bet to see whether the Fashion Club will survive without their two leaders.

Stacy and Tiffany try to go it alone, but it soon becomes obvious that they need Quinn and Sandi to survive. Unfortunately, they're stuck, as Quinn refuses to betray her word to Sandi (after Jane secretly guilt-trips her) and Sandi obviously isn't going to come back as long as she's overweight. They try everything they can -- even attempting to trick the Three J's into joining -- but Stacy eventually gets fed up with Tiffany's self-absorption and total ~~apathy~~, blows up at her, and quits. It looks like Jane has won the bet, but it's not to be: Daria was able to manipulate Quinn into helping Sandi lose weight, by hinting that Sandi's unpopularity might make ''Quinn'' unpopular. After weeks of Quinn's rigid exercise regimen, Sandi now returns, thin as she was before she left.

However, the next Fashion Club meeting shows things have changed. First, Sandi alters the weight requirements... and second, Stacy and Tiffany ''openly'' back one of Quinn's ideas, challenging Sandi's authority. She agrees to go with the majority opinion, looking quite uneasy as she does so...
