| 0:00.0 | I'm the cool dad. That's, that's my thing. |
| 0:09.7 | I know now what I can offer you that no one else can. Complete and undependent. |
| 0:16.7 | I'm a man. I'm sensitive. I need to feel loved. I need to be desired. |
| 0:23.1 | Yelling is the only part of being a father that I enjoy. |
