Liv Morgan: You know like, how, in, like, A Cinderella Story, how, like, everyone goes to the diner, that’s like, where you hang out. That’s like, what’s that’s like, what it is. It’s, like, everyone comes to Thelma Park diner, and that’s, like, where you go after school, and like, late nights, and that you, like, run into your classmates, and this is where you’d hang out. It was, like, just like Cinderella Story.

Liv Morgan: Oh, she was ratchet.
