-->'''Maybelle:''' Ladies, I don't mean to brag, but you are standing in the presence of the six-time winner of the Little Miss Corn Chowder competition... Do you think it matters that the Mayor's niece trots out there, younger than you, in a little gingham number with her artificially-fattened heifer? She doesn't know how to drive a pig, does she?
No. Do you think it matters? No-siree-Bob's-my-uncle, it doesn't. 'Cause you still got the best tits in Heehaw Township and all you gotta do is get out there and let them taste your chowder!

Added DiffLines:

* InnocentlyInsensitive: Occasionally, towards both Max and Lupe. She's a 1940s white woman from small-town Idaho who's socially awkward to begin with and hyper-fixated on baseball, and, as a result, she can sometimes say or do things without realizing that her non-white friends/teammates would take offense. She clearly doesn't realize that she has the advantage after she and Lupe start a fight in the middle of a game. (Carson stops Lupe from walking away, and Lupe throws the first shove.)


Added DiffLines:

* MissingMom: Her mother left when Carson was ten. Carson's older sister Meg clearly resents the resulting PromotionToParent.
