Speaker A

You're being so much like your father.

Speaker A

Do not compare me to my father.

Speaker A

I didn't compare you to him. I said you were acting like him.

Speaker A

You're exactly like your mother.

Speaker A

Everything you're complaining about her, you're doing.

Speaker A

You're suffocating Henry. First of all,

Speaker A

I love my mother. She was a wonderful mother. Just repeating what you told me.

Speaker A

Secondly, how dare you compare my mother to my mother? I may be like my father, but I am not like my mother.

Speaker A

You are! And you're like my father.

Speaker A

You're also like my mother. You're all the bad things about all of these people.

Speaker A

You're also like my mother. You're all the bad things about all of these people.

Speaker A

Speaker A

back to being a hack. You gaslighted me. You're a fucking villain. You want to present yourself as a victim because it's a good legal strategy? Fine, but you and I both know. As a victim because it's a good legal strategy, fine, but you

Speaker A

and I both know you chose this life. You wanted it until you didn't. You used me so you could get out of L.A. I didn't use you, you did, and then you blamed me for it. You always made me aware of what

Speaker A

I was doing wrong, how I was falling short. Life with you was joyless. What, so then you had to go and fuck someone else? You shouldn't be upset that I fucked her, you should be upset that I had a laugh with her. Do
