In dropsy the scales stick out from the body like a wood rasp. If your female molly has been in a tank where there is a male molly present then it is almost certain that she is gravid (pregnant).

Your goldfish has got very fat?

Don't get your hopes, high, because goldfishes DO NOT, umm... become pregnant. Most probably, it might have a case of dropsy. Quarantine it immediately (I don't know if dropsy is infectious, but don't risk it.) and examine it closely. If its scales are protruding, the fish is doomed. If there is no signs of anything like that, relax. It is most probably ... carrying eggs? and there is no disease infecting it.
