Ana Hey, dad?
Joe You knew about this woman before and you didn't tell me?
Ana Yeah, of course I knew. I've known for weeks. She's been shopping it around for a while, my PR heard about it.
Joe Is there a reason you decided to keep this from me? Feels like it involves me a lot more than it involves you.
Ana Right, I guess so, but given that I know what you're about to try to do about it and given that I think its a stupid fucking idea, I pretty much would have rather gotten a frontal lobotomy than have you find out.
Joe Anastasie, I know you're nearly 30 but I can promise you there will be no time when it is appropriate to talk to me that way.
Ana Right, I agree, its very disrespectful and I feel shitty about it, but you won't listen to me otherwise. And you can't give this woman any money.
Joe I never said I was giving her money. I've never even met this person. If I had a child I'd never-
Ana I know that, you're taking care of five stepkids like they're your blood. But I know you're gonna try to give her money anyway, and you can't. She's a scam artist. And don't try to convince me that she's in dire need to end up doing something like this, because that's your problem, Dad. You think everyone is as good as you and they're not. She wants your compassion and my money and she's not getting either, alright?
Joe Please don't act like I'm on hard times over here.
Ana Right, but she's shopping it around as Ana King's sibling. She knows I'm more likely to sell a story than you are, she's just looking for an opening. I can't believe we're even having this conversation. Think about the child she's lying to. Think about who she'll do this to next. You can't pay off a liar, they'll just keep lying.
Joe I'm not trying to pay her off, I just-
Ana Listen, I have to go. I love you, alright? I'm sorry that I'm being an asshole but you can't contact her. I'm sorry, I love you, I'm sory for being an asshole but you cannot save her. She is not yours to save. Don't act like I'm off base here, we don't have time for that today, okay? I'm having a really great week, I have to go, I'm sorry. I'll talk to you later.
