Todd Marten:
No homework, just a bunch of F's and "incompletes."
Cynthia Marten:
[Showing Todd the bag of marijuana]
Look at this. 15 years old.
Todd Marten:
I didn't try this stuff till I was in coll...
Cynthia Marten:
Shh.
[Hearing the door open and close, Cynthia turns off the light]
Todd Marten:
No.
Cynthia Marten:
What are you doing? She'll go ballistic if she find us in here.
Todd Marten:
I told you, I'm gonna call the police.
Cynthia Marten:
Todd, you can't do that. We'll have half the neighborhood standing on our front-
[Deena appears sees her mom and dad in her room]
Todd Marten:
[showing Deena his broken hand]
How am I supposed to work?
[showing her the bag of marijuana]
Todd Marten:
And how long has this been going on?
Deena Marten:
It's not mine.
Todd Marten:
Not anymore. Where's your homework?
Deena Marten:
I didn't do it.
Todd Marten:
You lied, then.
Deena Marten:
Yeah.
Todd Marten:
As of right now, you are grounded indefinitely. No stereo, no television, no telephone, no nothing.
Cynthia Marten:
And you aren't going to see Garret anymore.
Todd Marten:
Tomorrow you'll stay home, and you'll complete every one of your missing assignments.
Deena Marten:
Tomorrow's Saturday.
Todd Marten:
[Yelling]
Good! Then you'll have the weekend to finish it. And if you ever, ever raise your hand to anyone in this family again, I'll call the police.
Deena Marten:
The police?
Cynthia Marten:
Yes.
Deena Marten:
What are they gonna do?
[Todd put the telephone down]
Todd Marten:
I hope you'll never have to find out.
Deena Marten:
I could just tell them it was self-defense.
Todd Marten:
Self-defense against what?
Deena Marten:
I could say you tried to attack me. Maybe even tried to rape me.
Cynthia Marten:
[Todd gets up angrily, violently, but Cynthia stops him]
Todd.
[Deena is very scared]
Deena Marten:
Who do you think they'd believe?
[Todd is a very bad man. Deena is an innocent victim]
