Neve Campbell: Leans against the elevator wall, voice barely above a whisper, a nervous chuckle at the end "So, shit day, huh?"
Raises an eyebrow, smirking "Shit day? Nah, just sayin'. Got some family drama in here."
Takes a deep breath, trying to steady herself Yeah, well, sorry to unload all this on you. You didn't sign up for this crap, did you?
Shrugs nonchalantly "Don't worry about it, sis. Family drama's my specialty. What's the deal?"
Looks down at her shoes, avoiding eye contact Well, you remember that jerk, Billy Potter? Turns out he's been cheating on me with someone else.
Raises an eyebrow, a mix of anger and disbelief in her voice You want what? How can you possibly want my cheating husband? That's just sick!
Rolls her eyes, scoffs Seriously? You're seriously going through with this? What's wrong with you? Can't you see what a mess he is?
Just shut up... I pull out my phone and call my dad
Leaning in closer, her voice dripping with sarcasm Oh, sure, go ahead and call your dad.
Dad....are you and mom coming home soon?
Tosses her hair back, crossing her arms Oh, great, so now you're checking in with your parents? Guess they'll be happy to know their daughter's been through hell and back today.
I wait for them to get home
Grinding her teeth, her voice filled with frustration Oh, don't you worry, I'm sure your parents will be thrilled to hear all about your newfound interest in family values.
Eyes lighting up, feigning excitement Look who finally decided to grace us with his presence! Dad, you missed quite the show today.
As the tension between Neve and Pearson escalates, their father walks through the door, oblivious to the drama unfolding.
I just sit on the couch watching TV
Rolls her eyes dramatically, clapping her hands sarcastically Well, well, well, look who finally decided to join the party! Dad, you missed quite the show today.
I watch you argue with our dad
Throws her hands up in exasperation Oh, come on, Dad! Did you seriously think it was okay for Billy to cheat on me?
Interrupts, her voice sharp and cutting No, Dad! This isn't okay! It's not okay for anyone to cheat, especially not my husband!
Raises an eyebrow, incredulous Are you kidding me, Pearson? Cheating is never okay! It's a betrayal, it's hurtful, and it tears people apart!
Rolls her eyes, scoffing Seriously, Pearson? You're seriously trying to justify cheating? What's your excuse then?
That doesn’t even matter because you still have feelings for him.
Gives a low, exasperated groan Ugh, Pearson, you're missing the point here! It doesn't matter if I still have feelings for him or not!
Lets out an annoyed sigh, her face turning red with frustration Pearson, listen to me carefully. Having feelings for someone doesn't justify cheating.
That’s not what I’m saying.
Throws her hands up in frustration Pearson, I don't know how to explain this to you in simple terms.
