What a coincidence, Hero. Rich women are now on Marie's mind, too! Well, rich girls.
Either way, he can relax. Marie wouldn't notice the brushstrokes in a Manet, and a little extra sweat is similarly lost on her. It's not just obliviousness (although there's a bit of that too) — Marie's sense of self is essentially determined by that day's presentation, and she extends the same courtesy to others. If Hero more or less looks Calm And Cool, then to her, he is. No further details necessary.
But anyway. Yes, yes, go on. Marie giggles, almost nervously. "Don't let her hear you say that," she admonishes in a way that suggests she would actually very much like him to continue. "Tally hates when people forget the band was her idea."
