Barry Worth:
Listen, I made a mistake, all right? I could have played college ball, and I could have gone pro. Listen to me when I'm talkin' to you. But I messed up. I dropped out of school, and I didn't get an education and that was it. Quincy Worth, Barry's Son: So because you messed up, I can't get the shoes? Barry Worth: No. No. Because I messed up, you can't mess up. Thinkin' you need things you don't. You're listenin' to the wrong people, son. Well, when you're older, you'll understand. Quincy Worth, Barry's Son: When I'm older, I'll end up just like you. See more » |
