What's up with the Gator thing?

During an excellent scene in The Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood, Vivi tells Sidda not to venture too far out in the lake because the gators are out there and her friends won't be able to reach her. Kind of an awful thing to say to a 10-year-old, but it did get the point across neatly.

T (my best friend) and I joke about gators whenever we get depressed. She's not as afflicted by them as I am, but they are always lurking out in the lake. We always keep a sharp stick ready so that we can defend each other by poking one in the eye, but medication tends to help better.
