352
Dad?
353
What are you doing?
354
I don't want to talk about it.
355
Talk about what? Does Lynette know you're out here?
356
Oh, yeah, she knows.
357
Will you drive me to the airport?
358
Wait here.
359
Hey, Lynette.
360
Yeah?
361
Why is my dad sitting out on the curb1?
362
Because I kicked him out of the house.
363
I-I see. You want to tell me why?
364
Hold on.
365
I made you a drink.
366
Oh, god. What did he do?
367
368
Yesterday, I came home, and I walked in
on your dad with a woman.
369
He's having an affair. I am so, so sorry.
370
God.
371
I know, I know. Are you okay?
372
Yeah. Um, I should go talk to him.
373
That's it?
374
What?
375
I just --I expected a bigger reaction.
I've been sitting herewith knots3 in my stomach.
376
Okay, look, I never mentioned this before because
I knew how you'd react2, but, um...
377
I'm not that surprised by this.
378
My father's been having affairs for years.
379
380
You knew about this?
381
Yeah. Kind of, yeah.
382
I mean, I mean, it was mostly in the past.
I mean, I didn't know that he was still at it.
383
I mean, I figured he was getting too old.
384
In some strange way, I'm actually impressed, you know?
385
Impressed?
386
Impressed? I --
387
Tom, please, please don't tell me
you're all right with this.
388
I'm not. No, no.
He should never have brought that woman over here.
389
No, he should never have been with her in the first place.
390
I know, I know.
But, you know, that's who he is.
391
I mean, it's been going on for years.
My mom's made peace with it.
392
I seriously doubt that.
393
Look, you know, there's no point in talking about this,
394
but I'm going to go get my father,
I'm going to bring him back in here,
395
I'm going to put him in his room,
and we can all just cool off.
396
That man is not coming back in this house.
397
Yes, he is.
398
No, he's not.
399
Lynette, he is my father, this is my house.
You can't tell me what to do.
