Emily calls Zhaboonigan a pagan, and Veronique says Zhaboonigan’s name is Marie-Adele. Veronique makes fun of Emily’s name (Dictionary), and Emily throws Veronique into Pelajia, who has just walked into the store.
Pelajia yells at them while Annie tries to break up the fight. Philomena runs into the store looking for the bathroom. Annie says Veronique is both mad at Emily for not revealing what happened at Big Joey’s and jealous of Gazelle for winning bingo.
