- Gilbert: Why did you?
- Mr Carver: Get inside the pool. Yeah, look, real water, boys. Okay, so. . . so I don't, don't give everything.
- Mrs Carver: Because. . .
- Mr Carver: But God, I give you all I have, for Christ's sake.
- Mrs Carver: . . .I knew you'd always be there. Because. . . because I knew you'd never leave.
- Mr Carver: What the hell else more do you want? What? For God's sake! Son, get back in the pool. Get back in the pool. We're all gonna enjoy it. It's a lot of fun, isn't it? I'm doing the best I can here. I can't do any better. I can't give any more. I've given enough already.”
