"Did she say that she, Maxima, was not your friend?" asked Creek thoughtfully. "Or did she say that [i]everyone else[/i] wasn't? Because like you said, doesn't really seem like a co-workery thing to do. It doesn't even sound like she even said that Gata wasn't her friend."

"I thought they were friends," said Tammy, sitting down. "At least they played it on TV."

"Maybe Maxima wasn't playing," shrugged Creek. 

"Well, not important!" said Tammy. "I don't think she gets out of her group, and you're gonna win, so you're not gonna meet her! But have you looked at your group? It's all over the place!"

"How are you going to train for that?" said Creek. "It's breaking my brain just thinking about it."
