 Quote by the Alison:
       
       "While we were standing on the judges' platform getting our trophy, I was thinking that none of this would have happened if my bike hadn't been squashed under the car. It's funny how a problem that seems so awful at the time can actually work out to be a good thing." Alison from "Alison Saves the Wedding"
