Lamplighter and Hughie in “Unfinished Business”

[Hughie and Lamplighter watch porn while they stay behind. Hughie is clearly uncomfortable as Lamplighter looks through several DVDs.]

What do you wanna watch next? Uh, "Translucent: The Invisible Cock". "Queen Maeve: Pleasure Slave". Yeah, "Big Black Noir". Oh, "Starlight Pulls an A-Train".

I'm good. I'm good, thank you.

Okay. Different strokes, man.

Please don't say that in this context. [pause] You know, this isn't healthy, man. You can't watch porn while the… sun's out.

Look, if I get up at that hearing, I'm dead anyway. What difference does it make?

Okay.

[Hughie picks up the TV remote to try and turn off the porn]

Drop the remote, or I'll burn your fucking face off.

[Hughie drops the remote and continues reluctantly watching the porno for a few moments]

Did you know I was a prodigy? A fucking prodigy. I lit my first fire at four, burned my whole house down. My dad… he was so proud. "My son's a Supe". [pause] I was gonna do great things. I almost did. Now, look at me. I'm like the cuck in the porn, sitting on the sidelines while the real heroes are out there doing the fucking.

You wanna know why they left me to babysit you?

Because you're useless?

My mom… she, uh… [sighs] Never mind. After she was gone, I watched my dad do… nothing his whole life. But me, I thought I'd finally found… something. I thought I found what I was meant to do. But it turns out… I'm shit at that as well. You're not the cuck. I'm… the cuck.

Actually, you're worse. You're the cuck fluffer.
