There are 3 named female characters: Audrey, her friend Gladys and the male protagonist's mother Mrs. Smith. There is a scene where Audrey says to Gladys saying something like "it's getting late, let's go!" To which Gladys says something hesitant but still obeys. Men are with them at that time and it's a short exchange that COULD be related to the men.
