Mr. Scott : [critiquing a story] Callow... and coy. Jane wants more, but isn't honest enough to admit it. In the end she returns to the safety of her crippled... translation, sexually impotent... boyfriend.

Marcus (segment "Fiction") : This is bullshit! Her story was the truth!
Joyce (segment "Fiction") : Right.
Sue (segment "Fiction") : It's unbelievable!
Elli (segment "Fiction") : It's clichéd!
Amy (segment "Fiction") : It's disgusting!
Vi : But it happened!
Mr. Scott : I don't know about what happened, Vi, because once you start writing, it all becomes fiction. Still... it certainly is an improvement over your last story. There is now at least a beginning, a middle, and an end.

Mr. Scott : Catherine is right. Your story is a piece of shit. You express nothing but banalities, and, formally speaking, are unable to construct a single compelling sentence. You ride on a wave of clichés so worn, in fact, it actually approaches a level of grotesquerie. And your subtitle... "The Rawness of Truth"... is that supposed to be a joke of some sort? Or are you just being pretentious?
