Faye (Liv Tyler) talks to Tina (Charlize Theron) at the talent show. Although the conversation is short I still think it passes without a dubious remark.

SarahOM disagreed with the rating and said:
The conversation at the talent show was essentially Tina trying to find out when her boyfriend would be finished so they could leave because she was bored. They were pointedly NOT getting to know each other, which was meant to foreshadow Tina's later relationship choices in the film.
