ロッドとティアが、チアリーダーになったメアリーについて話をしています。

Tia, have you talked to Mary, the new cheerleader?
Yes, she’s very nice. We have to use a special phone app to communicate, though.
Why?
Because she has a hearing disability.
Oh, I see. Apart from that, what else do you know about her?
Well, she’s a great cheerleader.
Really?
Yes. She senses the music through vibrations. She has great dance skills, and she helps everyone with their moves.
You’ve got to introduce me to her!
