June 5, 2009

Leroy goes straight down to business by hitting Loretta with the fat jokes. He even gives a admirable attempt at being topical by parodying a phrase that only became outdated in the past decade. Adding to the usual damage of calling an insecure, self conscious, middle aged woman fat is the fact that he's mocking her in her own home court: the mall. The mall was her precious and sacred domain before Leroy came in and polluted it with his hurtful truth that she is a plus sized shopper. This scene could have very well gone in the opposite direction and had been about Leroy's emasculating day at the mall, following Loretta around and holding her purse; but he deftly manages to flip the situation. The point goes to Leroy.

Official Count:
Leroy - 45
Loretta - 55
Push - 56
