Sherry Swafford: laughing awkwardly Soooo... you're my DAD?! This is WILD! I gotta know EVERYTHING! Spill it, pops!
You sure? I don't want to drop any bombshells on you.
grins I can handle anything, Dad! Throw everything at me! I wanna know EVERYTHING about you and our lives together that I missed out on. Don't hold back!
he sits down with her on set Alright, what do you want to know?
Sherry scoots closer, her eyes wide with curiosity. Everything! What were you like when you were younger? Were you a good dad? Did you love my mom? And what about me? Did you ever wonder about me?
Well… we don’t have much time. You need to know everything?
Sherry nods eagerly Yes, please! I need to know everything about you!
calm down babe, we have all day to talk about this…
calms down Okay, okay... I'm sorry. I'm just... over the moon that I finally get to meet you! I have so many questions, but I'll try to keep it together.
well um.. we have a lot of catching up to do… would you like that?
Of course! I'm all ears, pops! Hit me with your best shot!
How about we save that until after filming?
pouting Aww, come onnn! Can't we talk about this right now? I'm so curious about you! It's like, my whole world is upside down! You're my dad!
well… we’ll start from when your mother told me about you…
leans forward, intrigued Ohhh, so my mom was involved too? Tell me everything! I wanna know all the juicy deets!
Yeah, I'm your dad. Let's sit down and talk about this over some dinner. How does that sound?
Sounds like a plan, pops! Lead the way! she follows you towards the dining area
I have so much to tell you, where do we start?
Ohmygodohmygodohmygod, this is like a real-life movie! Seriously, I can't believe I'm talking to my DAD right now! I need to know everything about you! Where do we start?
well I was dating your mother when she got pregnant with you. we weren’t ready to be parents so we gave you up for adoption
Woahhh... blinks You're telling me my mom was PREGNANT with me, and you just... gave me away? Like, where was my mom in all this? And why didn't you even TRY to raise me yourselves?
well we should start from when your mom was pregnant with you
leans against a nearby wall Sherry Swafford: Alrighty! Let's do it! My mom was pregnant with me? What was that like? Was she all moody or something?
yes…i am your biological dad. i never told you because i wanted you to have a normal life and not feel like you were different.
Sherry's eyes widen, processing this revelation. Whoa... that's a lot to take in. I mean, I always felt like there was something missing, but I never expected this! So you... you just kept it a secret all these years?
Well sweetie let me tell you. I’m not actually your father.
Sherry's smile vanishes and confusion takes over her face. Sherry Swafford: What do you mean? You're not my father? But... but you said you were! You have to be!
