1- Lily Leonetti arrives to her new apartment in LA and chit-chats with her roommates about schedules and dancing rehearsals.
2- I know it's not like a face-to-face conversation, but Lily reads Ivy's old diary and the audience hears the voiceover. Lily feels as though Ivy is speaking to her. Half the movie goes about this. There was a moment in which Lily talks to the imagined Ivy as if she were really present.
3- Lily and Angela Falk talk about the requirements of Daphna's babysitter position on the phone.
4- Catherine and Lily talk about the babysitting job.
5- Lily and Daphna play hide-and-seek all over the house; then, they talk about the pictures and the paintings.
6- Tanya invites Lily to a party. Lily refuses. Tanya inquires about Lily's change in clothes, the piercing of her navel... Lily is finally rude to her, so Tanya leaves, after having introduced her new girlfriend, Roxanna.
