What the actual fuck is your problem, 32?

Sully

My problem is something traumatic happened to our teammate, and when you keep bringing up the same shit, it’s not going to help him feel better.

Hi, Mitchy. I stopped by your place and handed over some of Liam’s chicken parmesan to your mom.

I’m glad she and your dad are there.

I know I’m not one of the guys, and I know it probably doesn’t mean much coming from me, but I’m here for you too. If you ever need anything.

Or just a friend who will listen.
