Tron and Shazia have been good friends since they were kids. Shazia was born with a genetic disorder that inhibits her ability to speak clearly. Both are at a party when they spot Nanette. Tron has had a huge crush on Nanette for months. Tron begins a conversation with Nanette and they are hitting it off pretty well. Just then, Nanette sees Shazia and begins to make insensitive comments to Tron about the way Shazia talks. After the comments Nanette looks to Tron for validation that he agrees with her.

Which ending to the scenario is an example of Tron using a refusal strategy?

Tron looks away and quietly says, “I have never noticed that about her before.”
Tron looks toward Shazia and loudly says, “ Yeah, she sure sounds like a real idiot!”
Tron looks Nanette in the eyes and clearly states, “Shazia is my friend and what you said is hurtful.”
Tron looks at Nanette and sarcastically says, “I think she sounds just like you when she talks.”
