Maya and Stephanie does not talk to each other about anything. The conversation about Stephanies child was not between them.

Stephanie and Maya have the following conversation about wine:

Maya: Hey, Steph!
Stephanie: Yeah?
Maya: Can we really open anything we want?
Stephanie: Yeah, yeah. Anything. Uh, except the Richebourg.

Its short, but it still counts. Nevertheless, its a shame that there aren't more passing conversations, as Maya and Stephanie are obviously good friends.

Cassandra disagreed with the rating and said:
When Maya asks Stephanie a clarifying question about the wine, the context about it is still about the two men they are with; it is still 'about men' as the reason it is asked relates to the ongoing date with the men.
