Everything is Borrowed






Becca: There is no right and wrong dad, there's just the

consequences of your actions..You taught me that...


Dad: So uh, what is it that you like so much about this boy?


Becca: I don't know.


Dad: C'mon it must be something, use your words.


Becca: He's really smart.


Dad: Oh, let's not go crazy


Becca: ...and he makes me feel pretty.


Dad: Well that you are, you're very pretty, you're beautiful.


Becca: Shut up, I'm not beautiful.


Dad: Don't say that, look, don't ever say that. You are beautiful,

you're the most beautiful thing in the world to me..


Becca: Then treat me that way. I'm always on your side dad, always.

Even when I shouldn't be. But I'm sick of it, get your shit

together before it's too late. I don't care if you and mom never

say another kind word to each other, but i'm sick and tired of

parenting you both, I'm a fuckin kid, I don't know what i'm doing

half the time.

But I do know this, if you keep cracking jokes and taking another

drink and pretending that life is one big stupid party you will

miss everything.

Allan: You know Denny, I am very pro choice. I believe it's a

woman's right, but from a scientific and human perspective, it's

hard to argue that life doesn't begin at conception even if it's

only in organism form...


Denny: How many procedures were you a part of?


Allan: Two.


Denny: And they uh....haunt you?


Allan: Let's just say they weigh on me.
