Rodrigo Ortiz Vinholo disagreed with the rating and said:
I don't think it's dubious. While it IS a short exchange between Annie and Bobby Joe, both are named and it is of some relevance to the plot, since it's their conversation that ends up starting the deal that took the group to the shed.

Later, there's a conversation between Annie and the possessed Henrietta, in which she talks about her childhood memories. Or rather, the demon taunts her through them. Still, I suppose it counts.

I'd say it passes.

It passes all three within the first 20 minutes. No doubt in my mind.
