Fuck off.
Brinkley
Gracie said it was two o’clock in the morning, and she knew that because she has a clock in her bedroom.
Hugh
Damn. That kid is a freaking genius. I couldn’t tell time in kindergarten. Clocks are fucking confusing.
Finn
I learned to tell time unusually young. She gets her smarts from me.
We have a digital clock, dickweiners. She knows her numbers. What’s your point, Brinks?
Brinkley
My point is that I find it interesting that Presley Duncan needed to borrow a cup of freaking milk at two o’clock in the morning. Gracie said she came by to borrow milk.
Why is that surprising? She lives in New York. It was 5:00 a.m. there. Time for breakfast.
Georgia
I love that you’re having slumber parties with Presley. This makes me so happy.
Listen. It was a onetime thing. She’s never borrowed milk in the middle of the night again.
Georgia
Bummer. It’s been so nice getting to spend time with her after all these years. I wish we could keep her.
Brinkley
She’s not a dog, for God’s sake.
Hugh
Well, Cage does have a thing for strays.
Finn
Move over, Maxine… Daddy’s got a new honey in town!
If you ever call me Daddy again or refer to a woman as a honey, I will throat punch you so hard you won’t ever regain consciousness.
Brinkley
Just admit you’re in love with her, and we’ll call it a day.
There was nothing to admit. I’d nevernotbeen in love with Presley. It would be like admitting that I didn’t need air to breathe. But loving her didn’t mean anything all those years ago, and it didn’t mean anything now. At the end of the day, love had never been our problem.
Stay out of my business and act normal tonight.
Finn
Sounds like Daddy’s bringing his honey to Sunday dinner.
Brinkley
