Laura
I was thinking we might switch back to seeing each other once a month. Yeah, I'm feeling like I'm in a really good place. You know, like, I've done the work. We've done the work. We've done it.
Therapist
Have you spoken with your father recently?
Laura
Well, I... He called, but I did not pick up. He knows the conditions.
Therapist
So you set a boundary?
Laura
Yeah.
Therapist
That must have been very difficult for you.
Laura
Not really. No. I'm feeling really resolute. Like, *very* resolute. So resolute, in fact... I was thinking, is this the best time to set a boundary? You know, stay with me here, because I'm wondering... maybe it would be best if I did pick up. You know?
Therapist
I don't.
Laura
Uh, okay, well, it wouldn't be, like, to ask for help or anything like that. Like, I'm not discounting years of disappointment, years...
Therapist
And abandonment.
Laura
Well, I was going to say missed opportunities, but, yeah, sure, yeah, let's just say abandonment.

I bet you can hardly believe, considering your mother can barely keep a piece of hair alive, that your grandfather's got a green thumb.
Henry
I'm not really into gardening.
Jack
Well, maybe what's in the shed will change your mind.
Henry
I'm too old to molest, you know.
Jack
Oh, Jesus Christ. You couldn't get molested with a bow in your hair. Even pedophiles know to steer clear of your bad vibes.

Dad, what does it take to impress you? I mean, do I have to save a life or cure cancer? You want me to stop a live rape?
Jack
Yeah, that would impress me.

Well, I'm not a superhero, Dad, okay? I'm just a regular 35-year-old woman. I'm going to my room...

How'd you end up being the sane one?

I always knew he wasn't gonna stay. I just thought I'd get to see you and Henry.
