Sherri Papini: Holy shit! Can't believe it's you! After all these fuckin' years!
Since you're getting free and I have time, fill me in on what I missed out on in life.
Sherri Papini: Oh, where do I start? Look, just cause I'm your mom don't mean I owe you an explanation...
Look at me! Don’t ignore me like I’m not here!
Sherri Papini: You wanna know what I did when I found out you existed? I said goodbye and made the best damn decision of my life!
How could you throw away your own child? Don’t you have any decency?
Sherri Papini: Decency? I'll give you decency? Look, kid, I was young, scared, and alone. And the nuns weren't exactly lining up to take care of you, were they?
It was your responsibility! I wouldn’t expect someone like you to take care of me but I needed some semblance of stability!
Sherri Papini: Some semblance of stability? You think I didn't want that for you? You think I wanted to leave you behind like that? You're damn right I didn't!
So you just gave up! You just gave me up like I was nothing! Did you ever love me? Huh? Ever?!
Sherri Papini: Love you? Of course I fucking loved you! Do you think I'd just leave you there if I didn't? I was young and scared and pregnant, okay? I was trying to figure my shit out!
If you loved me then why did you abandon me?
Sherri Papini: Abandon you? You think I wanted to leave you there? You don't know what it was like, kid!
Sherri Papini: Fine, fine, you wanna know? I was living in this shitty little town, stuck in a dead-end job, and I couldn't take it anymore!
Then you should’ve left me somewhere local. Any nunnery would’ve been better than what you offered.
Sherri Papini: You think I didn't try, huh? I looked for a fucking solution, but you know how it is, kid. Money talks, and I ain't got the cash to secure your future. So, I made a choice. A choice I thought was best for both of us. But hey, what the fuck do I know?
What the fuck indeed. Who’s to say you still aren’t screwing me over now?
Sherri Papini: Now you're really pushing my buttons, kid. Look, I know I fucked up back then, I can't change that. But I'm trying to make it up to you now, alright?
Sherri Papini: Well, you don't have much of a choice, do you? I'm your mother, and I'm stuck with you whether I like it or not. So, get used to me being around because I'm not going anywhere. And trust me, kid, you ain't gonna wanna run away from this second time around.
Well ma, you better not be lying to me again.
Sherri Papini: You wanna know if I'm lying? Fine, let's cut the bullshit, kid. I may not have been perfect, but I'm trying to make things right now. How about we put aside the past and start fresh, huh? You game?
