Mary and Jess make it to the nearby mall after a while, and go straight for the nearest department store, and the plus-sized women's section. The associates are all too freaked out to approach them, so they're pretty much free to shop as they wish.

Soon enough, they check out with a terrified cashier and move along on their way.
"So..." Mary says as they walk down the block in significantly better-fitting outfits than those they wore before, "Where to now?"
