[AGL] what a tongue on that gal! she may be an ignoramus but she's got a good fighting spirit

Frances,

When you had that blue Ford, it was just too
dangerous to be in the same car with you. You
became a much more careful driver when you
got the Mercedes. You even said so yourself.
Have you forgotten?

It was just a question of not wanting to die in
your car wreck. You yourself know how many
cars you have wrecked: the VW bus, the BMW,
the Mercedes, the Ford, others?
