The Son • 2022

Peter: What are you doing, Nicholas? What do you want? When I was your age, my mother was sick, I wasn't seeing my father any more, I had money problems, but I fought on. I fought on, and believe me, most days, it was no joke.
[Nicholas tries to walk away to his room]
Peter: And what has happened to you? What is there in your life that is so dramatic you're not able to go to school like everybody else? Answer me.
[shouts]
Peter: Answer me!
Nicholas: I can't deal with it!
Peter: I don't understand what that means. You can't deal with what?
Nicholas: Living! I can't deal with living. And it's your fault!
Peter: Sorry?
Nicholas: If I'm like this, it's your fault.
Peter: What have I done? What's... What's my fault?
Nicholas: You disgust me.
Peter: What did you say?
Nicholas: You give all these big speeches about life and work and then you abandon us as if we were pieces of shit.
Peter: What?
Nicholas: You think you always do the right thing, but right from the beginning, you've basically been an asshole!
Peter: Take back what you just said, Nicholas. Do you hear me? You take back what you just said. Now!
Nicholas: [shouts] Asshole!
Peter: Me, an asshole? Me? Haven't I always done everything for you? I stayed with your mother for years for your sake. So why are you saying this? Why?
[Nicholas tries to leave but Peter is holding him back]
Peter: Why? Tell me why. Is it because I fell in love with another woman? Is that my crime?
[shouts]
Peter: How is that any of your business? I have the right to reinvent my life! Fuck! It's my life, do you hear me? It is my life!
[Nicholas falls on the floor terrified as Peter realizes what he just did]
Peter: I'm... I'm sorry, Nicholas. I...
[hesitates]
Peter: I don't know what just happened.
[Nicholas runs to his room and slams the door]
