[0:18]You know what Kev, I'm not going to walk away from this. Randall, please. You think you know what's best for her because you spent a day with her, because you took her to a movie premiere? I think I know what's best for her because she told us. Randall and you took that from her. How dare you waltz in here after 48? No, no, no, how dare I what? How dare you pretend that you give a rat's ass about what anybody else wants other than you. You want mom to spend more time with the family because you want to spend more time with her. You want mom to decide with you. You, you, you. Are you kidding me right now? This is about me. Huh? This isn't about me Randall. This is about you. It's not about mom, it's about you, wanting to save mom. That's what this is about. You have no idea, you have no idea what you're talking about, Kevin. You have no idea what it means to actually take care of her. Oh, yes, exactly, because I left, right? Because I left and you stayed and played martyr. I stayed and I took care of our family, man. Well, you did a good job taking care of dad, didn't you? And what the hell is that supposed to mean? You want to do this now? Please. You want to do this now finally after all these years? Let's do it. You know, this whole narrative that you keep spinning, this narrative that you took care of the family, where the hell did that come from? Huh? Cause all I know is if I had been there, I would have walked through literal fire, and I would have pulled that man out. Hmm.

[1:23]Well, Kevin, I guess we'll never know because you weren't there. And he died ashamed of you.

[1:30]I think I think that's the part that really gets you, isn't it? The shame that he felt for you and the pride that he felt for me. I mean, you're not even chasing dad's shadow, Kevin. You're chasing mine. But you'll never be him, and you'll never be me because you'll never know what it's like to devote yourself to anyone other than yourself. And you'll pretend, but it'll just be a performance. A tired, stale performance like all of your performances.

[2:07]You know I used to think the worst thing that happened to me was the day that dad died.

[2:15]It's the day they brought you home.

[2:19]And to God Randall, the worst thing that ever happened to me was the day they brought you home.
