"I worried about it, but if you turn on the lights- it's no big deal."
-Kevin McCallister, Home Alone.
Erica: You can and you will.
Freida: I must, I must.
Erica: See?
Freida: Gosh, gosh no. This is terrifying.
Erica: You are Freida! Winner of the state spelling bee, lover of the dots on the sky and the smartest eleven-year old in the world.
Freida: .....
Erica: A bunch of mere mortals in the audience is not a big deal. They got nothin' on you.
Freida: Okay, okay- yes. They're all little mortals and this demigod will outshine 'em all!
Erica: There's no doubt about that, Fri.
Freida: But- oh god, what if I don't?
Erica: Has it ever dawned upon you, as to why you like stars so much?
Freida: They shine.
Erica: And so do there lovers. Ya know why?
Freida: Really? Nope, I don't.
Erica: Believe me. They're made of brilliance.
Freida: They're calling me on stage, Erica. I'll show them what I'm made of- I think.
Erica: Stardust. We're all made of stardust, Freida Hopkins.
