Finding myself making breakfasts and lunches and talking about emotions are things I never really had to do as a father.
DDavid
I can't picture you in an apron.
I can't cook a TV dinner, but in many ways it's been the best opportunity of my life. An opportunity that I might not have taken, probably wouldn't have stepped up for if not…
Remember when you compared yourself to those old buildings, they're an eyesore until they get torn down and then they're beloved?
Well, that was just a metaphor.
Well you know what really happens? A couple of people bitch for a couple of weeks and then life just goes on. No one is indispensable, certainly not me, but not you either.
You were right. I've been all screwed up in the head lately and it's put me on the back foot, and I should have told you but I didn't, so I'm sorry.
Do you want to talk about it?
I'm pretty sure I just did talk about it.
I guess a few drops of blood from a stone is progress.
What's happening to us?
Turns out we may have flaws.
Speak for yourself.
It's weird, but I still feel like I'm married, you know?
FFaith
I did too, for a long time.
When does it stop, feeling like you're married?
FFaith
When you decide it's okay to start living again.
Did you see the look on her face? She fell in love the second she saw that baby, it was instantaneous. I just thought, some day I want to experience what that feels like.
Me too.
What's the course of action?
A period of suspension.
Define period.
A length or portion of time.
Cause when I see a bunch of look-a-like, dress-a-like, dirt bags carrying pipes and bats and sticks and such, I see a gang.
KKyle
We're a force for good.
No, you're everything you claim to hate only you're too stupid to see it.
So, given no choice, would you put the welfare of your family above the law?
Yes, I would.
Thank you.
But when the dust settled I would walk down to the local precinct and turn myself in because nobody's above the law, and without the law, nobody is safe.
You don't get to be the arsonist and the fire fighter.
GGovernor
What's that mean?
It means you don't get a big thank you for cleaning up a mess you made.
What I knew is that you're a hard guy but not a mean or petty one, at least I thought I knew.
I hope you know.
I know you, and I know you can come up with something.
I'm not some kind of criminal justice magical genie.
I've heard one side called fascist and cruel, the other called fairy tales for snowflakes. Neither is true. The middle ground has gone missing.
How do you get it back?
I don't know.
How can you say I'm wasting resources?
Because you're looking for a guy who doesn't want to be found for his son who doesn't care about finding him. Pretty much defines wasting resources.
