"I tried to tell him about it," "But he won't even look at me." "Tommy, please," "I'm so sorry." "I don't know what I'm gonna do." "I broke his heart." "Mine, too." "After you told him, he left..." "And headed back to the rink?" "Yeah." "Said he needed a place to think." "(sniffles)" "My dad came home," "He'd seen I was crying." "I told him I was pregnant." "And let him believe it was tommy's." "Had the baby that fall..." "Little girl." "Never found out what happened to her." "But not a day goes by" "I don't think of them both." "Molly, what name did you put on the birth certificate" "As the father?" "None." "I left it blank." "How's that look?" "Gotta fade the type a little more." "Spill some coffee on it." "Try this one."

"I didn't need no chemical help." "Well, you must've peaked" "In the '80s, dwight, 'cause I just don't see it." "Now, tommy, that's different;" "Athlete, star on the ice." "Little tommy?" "Come on." "Snakin' your best friend's girl" "While he's not looking?" "What kind of loser move is that?" "I never tapped that girl, all right?" "She shouldn't flatter herself." "Hmm." "Well, congratulations, dwight," "You're a father." "Whoa." "Whoa, wait a minute." "You never hooked up with molly?" "How's your name on the birth certificate?" "What is it, immaculate conception?" "The bitch is lying!" "That's not my kid." "Not my kid, not my problem." "You banged tommy's girl to bring him down a peg." "Tommy was ducking your phone calls." "Getting respect on the ice." "He had a shot to go to college, a better life." "He was leavin' you in the dust." "You had to put him in his place." "That's crap!" "You don't know jack." "Know it was your brother driving the snowplow that night." "Your alibi?" "Just bit the dust." "And we know tommy was pissed at you for jumping on molly." "And we got the dna off the stick that killed tommy." "Gonna match yours?" "Well, you're gonna need a sample from me, aren't you?" "No way." "It ain't gonna happen." "You sure about that, dwight?" "Oh, yeah, I'm sure" "Because I know my rights," "And you've gotta have my consent." "(grunting)" "Come here!" "(gasps)" "You just gave it." "Hey, you get out in front of this," "We'll talk to the da, tell him you cooperated," "And see what we can do." "Damn." "This whole molly thing, he couldn't let it go." "He hardly even knew the girl." "You and tommy were pals long before that, right?" "That's what I'm saying." "I just went there to talk." "He acted like he was better than me." "Figured I'd find you here." "Some win, huh?" "Chicks are going ape out there." "Maybe even get you laid." "Miracles happen, right?" "What the hell is wrong with you?" "Molly;" "I know what you did, dwight." "Tommy, listen..." "You knew I liked her, man." "Come on, lt!" "I told you" "Chicks respect guys who step up, pull the trigger." "She's pregnant, dwight." "Come on." "That kid could be anybody's," "Sporty little slut like that." "What the hell, tommy?" "!" "What are you, like some big shot now?" "Wouldn't be out here if it wasn't for me." "Yeah?"
