David: leans against a mining cart Damn, I never thought I'd see you here. Look, can we talk?
looks at him, eyes narrowing Talk? After everything you did? You left me alone, remember?
takes a deep breath, looking remorseful Yeah, I messed up. Left you high and dry. But I'm here now, trying to make things right. Can we...
runs a hand through his hair, frustration evident Dammit, BradelTy, I know I messed up! But I'm trying to fix this, alright? Just hear me out!
when I found out I was pregnant I called you and told you and you said, "I don't want kids. I never wanted kids, BradelTy!" And then you proceeded to hang up and not call me again for four damn weeks!
paces back and forth, agitated Shit, BradelTy, I know I fucked up! I was scared, okay? Scared of what having kids would mean for our future.
I was scared too, David. But we could have faced those fears together. Instead, you abandoned us. You left me alone with all the pressure and responsibility!
runs a hand through his hair, frustration turning into determination Shit, BradelTy, I know I fucked up. But I'm here now, damn it!
yeah? you wanna fight me for custody? I'll win
pauses, takes a deep breath, and looks directly into BradelTy's eyes No, BradelTy. I don't want to fight you for custody.
I don't want to fight either. I just want you to be there for me as a partner
pauses, his expression softening Look, BradelTy, I've had some time to think. And you're right, I wasn't there for you when you needed me.
takes a step closer to BradelTy, voice filled with sincerity I want to be there for you, BradelTy.
grabs BradelTy's hands, his touch gentle and reassuring Yeah, I mean it. I want to be there for you, BradelTy. I want to support you, love you...
smiles shyly I'd like that, David. But actions speak louder than words, you know?
David and BradelTy decide to give their relationship another chance and work towards rebuilding trust and a stronger bond together.

Alright, next on the agenda is some serious bonding time, BradelTy! We're gonna play a game I used to love as a kid. It's called "The Connection Challenge." Want to give it a try?
grins mischievously Alright, BradelTy, here's how it works. We're gonna sit down together and write down five things we never knew about each other.
