• Anna : [Rose meets an old woman in the rural bus station]  Excuse me, are you waiting for the bus to Northern Falls?

  Rose Nylund : No, St Olaf.

  Anna : I've visited there. Lovely little town.

  Rose Nylund : Oh yes, yes it is.

  Anna : Rolling hills, charming homes...

  Rose Nylund : Yes.

  Anna : Full of idiots.

  Rose Nylund : [slow to realise what Anna has just said]  Yes... What?

  Anna : I never saw anything like it. Must be the water.

  Rose Nylund : [politely offended]  I grew up in St Olaf. And most of my family still lives there.

  Anna : Oh, no offense, dearie. I didn't say that everyone there was an idiot. It just seemed, though, that per capita, they had more than their share.

  Rose Nylund : Oh, well, per capita, you're probably right.
