"You, silly. You draw better than me and you have plenty of time. Please tell me you'll do it! Maybe they'll ask you to join too, once they see how talented you are! Please, please, whipped cream, chopped nuts and cherry on top please! If I screw this up, I know they'll blacklist me and then I'll never be part of any good groups."(Heather Page 80) When Heather is working on the canned food drive she begs Mel to help her draw on the posters for her. Melinda says yes being a good friend helping her. Later on however, Heather is confronted by the Marthas. They tell her the posters are horrible and she isn't taking enough canned food. When Melinda runs to the bathroom because of Andy Evans, Heather doesn't go after her. Heather didn't even say thank you.
