Henry: Can I get the usual, Clyde. And then keep them coming, please.

Louis: A peace offering.

Henry: Hey Clyde, cancel that order, will you? This used to be a nice place.

Louis: Henry, please. I made a mistake --

Henry: Really? How is that possible? You're infallible, you're all wise, you're all knowing --

Louis: Be mad at me, tell me off, I have it coming, but don't walk away -- for Maddie's sake.

 

Louis: Just have that martini. Give me just that much time to make this right.

Henry: That's my problem though, isn't it, Louis? I hide from life behind those martinis, and I just sip away and watch Maddie self-destruct.

Louis: You can throw everything I said back in my face. I'll take it. I deserve it. But we have to get through this because Maddie needs all of our help.

Henry: Clyde, un-cancel that martini, will you? And something non-alcoholic and flavorless for my friend here.

Louis: I -- I've been very hard on you.

Henry: Ya think?

Louis: Last night, when you suggested that I might have hurt Maddie -- inside, I just went crazy.

Henry: Aw.

Louis: But afterwards, thinking about it, it made me realize how you must have felt when I took you to task for Maddie.

Henry: Oh, Louis, here. To people who still say took you to task.

Louis: I would never hurt her, Henry, ever. I was just trying to tell her I wanted to help her. Just the situation, her attitude, the passive aggression, it's all so frustrating. I was just trying to get her to sit still long enough to listen to me. But I made it worse, and I know it. I'm sorry.

Henry: Ah, hell. It's okay.

Louis: No, it's not, Henry. I feel like the reason I may have been so aggressive with you is because -- I feel responsible for what happened to her. For her sneaking off to that frat party. I should have been paying more attention.

Henry: Let's just blame the guys that hurt her. And may they burn in hell.

Louis: Right.

Henry: Right, right. Anyway, before we get to all swept up in this familial warmth -- just one more thing. Never put your hands on my sister again. Got it?
