no, the entire sentence is ina  high pitch.  it almost sounds like she is
imitating someone with a high pitched voice, but every sentence, regardless
of whether they are quotes (and regardless of the voice of the quoted) or
statements that almost always seem to be hearsay, is delivered in the high
pitch.  it is sort of annoying atfer a while, but still interesting
