"I'm... I'm sorry. You know, if there was something I could do..."

"Hey, you know what? You ain't got to do nothing, uncle Phil. You know, it ain't like I'm still 5 years old, you know? Ain't like I'm gonna be sitting up every night asking my mom 'When's daddy coming home?', you know? Who needs him?Hey, he wasn't there to teach me how to shoot my first basket, but I learned, didn't I? And I got pretty damn good at it too, didn't I, uncle Phil?"

"Yeah you did."

"Got through my first date without him, right? I learned how to drive, I learned how to shave, I learned how to fight without him, I had 14 great birthdays without him! He never even send me a damn card! TO HELL WITH HIM!!! I didn't need him then, and I don't need him know."

"Will? Will?"

"No, you know what, uncle Phil? I'm gonna get through college without him, I'm gonna get a great job without him, I'm gonna marry a beautiful honey and I'm havin' me a whole bunch of kids. I'm gonna be a better father than he ever was! And I'm sure as hell don't need him for that, BECAUSE AIN'T A DAMN THING HE COULD EVER TEACH ME ABOUT HOW TO LOVE MY KIDS!
How come he don't want me, man?"
