"Mal, no."
"Why not?"
"We're brothers, Malcolm."
"Don't you love me?"
"Mal, please, don't be like that. You know I do... But we can't."
"If you loved me, you wouldn't care what people think."
"For fuck's sake, Mal, this isn't about homophobia! We're brothers! Did you forget?!"
"You had no issue going around with Bon."
"I wasn't related to him! And stop bringing him up."
"Do you still love him?"
"Of course I still fucking love him. But my love for you is a different kind of love. Why can't you just accept that?!"
"Because it doesn't matter! You've never cared what others think. Why start now?"
"Malcolm, for the last time, this isn't about what people think! I don't love you that way! You can't change that. It's not natural."
"Well, then, why do I love you?"
"I don't know. I don't care. Just... Just stop."
"I can't stop loving you, Angie."
"Don't call me that."
"Why? Did Bonnie call you that?"
"Bon."
"Oh, I'm sorry. You obviously care about him more than you care about me."
"Fucking hell, Mal, stop acting like a child!"
"I'm acting like a child?"
"You know what? I'm done here. I'm sorry, Malcolm. I - I think you should get help."
"There's nothing wrong!"
"I'm afraid there is..."
"I love you, please don't leave me!"
"I know you do. But I have to."
