"You may be an alcoholic, but you're not the one who chose to drive your son into the woods in a snowstorm." "You didn't, totally sober, make the decision to leave Nate in a truck to track a deer... a fucking deer." "Excuse me." "Ethan's actions would be more understandable... not less negligent, but more understandable, had he been drunk at the time." "That's a twisted fucking argument."

"All I expect you to do is describe that experience, that's it." " I can do that." " All right." "I can tell about how I never saw a person so wrecked as Ethan when he dug up his son from the snow." "I can tell the jury how much bullshit this trial is and how losing your own kid doesn't give you license to shit on the rest of us."

"No." "I'm really fine here." "I'm fine." "Yeah, yeah, you know, I can see that, but, you know, I thought maybe you could use a fresh pair of eyes, you know." "We can bring the car seat, work on it together." "You'd work on it with me?" " Yeah." " Yeah?" "Yeah." "Yeah, sure." "Come on." "We'll go get some food, camp out at my place." "It'll be great."

"Sometimes, yeah." "Was he good for you?" " The best." " Good." "He was a good baby, too." "He didn't cry too much." "We'd build forts in the living room with pillows and blankets and shit." "He loved that." "Yeah." "That must have been fun." "No, not really." "I'd set the pillows up, he'd pull them down, throw them all over the place, then want me to set them up all the fuck over again, but it was fun for him." "It's on me."
