Dad: Connie, have you seen Norman's latest report card? Goddamn it! How can this boy be so fucking stupid? He's failing 12th grade for the second year in a row. It's even worse this year than last year!!
Mom: I know Derek, but I have a solution. I have scheduled a parent teacher conference this weekend with the principal. I'm sure we'll work something out.
Dad: Whatever it takes. I can't this idiot living here one day past his 18th birthday!
