That Will ends up ripping to shreds verbally. Sean says in a peaceful but firm voice “ You're just a kid, you don't have the faintest idea of what your talking about” but as he's about to carry on talking Will butts in and says “Why thank you” in a sarcastic humorous voice. Showing the viewers that still now Will isn't buying into anything sean's saying. But straight after that sean throws back at him and says “that's alright. You've never been outside of Boston then”. Then Sean gives about 3 seconds for Will to answer back, but there is no answer ( there is a middle shot of Will and Sean's face with a calm face on Sean but a almost distrest face on Will). So then Sean says “no?”. This shows us the viewers how Wills thinking more about Sean’s words.Will also stops snapping back to everything Sean says, and really thinks about it. We also notice how Wills maturity is growing up more, he's acting more like a young man than a cocky
