Kate: Tomorrow, we are going to the phsychologist.

Charlotte: Mum please, I don't have a complex. It's a simple operation.

Kate: Shut up! you are perfect and you aren't going through the operation room. Darling your beauty inside is the most important thing, you have to be who you are and you don't have to listen to the boys opinion.
