Annie talks to Karin and Beulah, but their conversations revolve around either Terence Mann or Ray.

Annie, her mother, and her sister-in-law Dee briefly discuss how Mother and Dee cannot see the field or the baseball game.

MOTHER
I don't think it's very polite to try to make other people feel stupid.

ANNIE
You don't see it?

DEE
That's not funny, Annie.

ANNIE (to herself)
They couldn't see it.

Liz disagreed with the rating and said:
At the PTA meeting, Annie has an exchange about banning books with an irate mother that a male character (principal? School board?) calls “Mrs. Perkins.”

I agree with Liz. They spend a long time discussing the books.

Sandy disagreed with the rating and said:
Annie and Beulah talk about banning books at the school board meeting. They do talk about a male author and later, Ray, but it starts about book banning in general.
