 (In the wash room)
 Helen:  I'll try drinking some water...Ahh...! Much better already! Hah! Curing them was certainly a piece of cake! Hic!...Hic!...Hic! Darn it! They're worse than ever! I'll try holding my breath!

 Helen:  Hic!...Hic!
 Student A:  Helen! Are you okay? Your face is turning blue!
 Helen:  I'll give a...Hic...hundred dollars to the ...Hic...first person who...Hic...can cure me! 
 Student A:  Has Victor worked up the courage to tell you about our engagement yet?
