I made a big, okay, huge mistake, Dad.
Again?
Again—
I told you…
—I need you to get me.
To bail you out again?
Dad, I swear this is the last time.
Son, I told you to be responsible. You got yourself into this, and you can get yourself out.
Dad!
Fine.
Where are you?
I’m nearby.
Dad? Is that you?
I made bail. I made a big, okay colossal mistake.
And here I thought you told me to be responsible.

Let’s keep this whole bail thing between us, okay?

I won’t tell Mom, but you owe me another bail if I need it.

Deal.
