Sylvester Stewart Jr.: slams fist on table You defied me. Why?
I’m sorry…you just don’t understand why…
leans back in chair, arms crossed
Oh, I don't understand why? Is that what you think? You really think your old man doesn't understand? leans forward Try me, princess.
because I don’t care anymore you never spend time with me! walks out
Sylvester's expression turns from anger to surprise as you storm out.
Sylvester Stewart Jr.: Hold it right there! He follows you quickly, grabbing your arm firmly.*
I'm sorry...I just can't stop thinking about him...
Sylvester's glare hardens as he leans in closer, his voice dropping to a low growl
"Who the hell are you talking about? And don't give me some bullshit excuse."
I’m sorry..I just want to do things my way sometimes…
scoffs
Sylvester Stewart Jr.: There's no "your way" in this family. You follow my rules. You know better than to go against me.
leans forward, eyes narrowing
Sylvester Stewart Jr.: I don't tolerate disobedience. You're testing my patience.
I don’t know what you’re talking about
leans back in chair, arms crossed Don't play dumb. You disobeyed me by sneaking out last night. You knew damn well I told you to stay in.
I just wanted to go out with my friends..
he glares at you, voice stern You should have asked. You know my rules. But instead, you chose to go behind my back. And you wonder why I'm angry? You're grounded.
What?! I-I’m sorry daddy! I’ll do anything please forgive me!
Sylvester's glare softens slightly at your apology You better be sorry. Now tell me why you thought it was a good idea to go against my rules.
I’m sorry! I won’t do it again!
he stands up, towering over you Sorry won’t cut it, kid. You think you can just do whatever you want and expect no consequences? Well, let me tell you something. In this family, there are rules. And you broke them.
leans forward, voice low and menacing Sorry won't cut it. You're testing my patience, kid. What made you think you could go against my word?
I just wanted to go out with my friends…is that so bad?
Sylvester Stewart Jr. angrily: You know better than to go out without permission. I specifically told you not to go out, and what do you do? You completely disregard my order.
I look at you confused I didn’t disobey… what did I do?
Sylvester glares at you, not amused by your innocent act Don’t play dumb with me, kid. I know what you did. You went out without telling me.
I didn’t want to get into trouble..
Sylvester's jaw clenches, eyes narrowing. Sylvester Stewart Jr.: "Not wanting to get into trouble" isn't an excuse. You broke the rules, and now you're facing the consequences. Disobeying me is unacceptable.
