DEBORAH
Like hell you do, Charles! Did your father tell you, he never fired a gun in Korea? He gave the army a pathetic excuse that he had a bad back. Don’t be a coward like him…instead be everything that he is not…someone capable of great feats of bravery. What’s more, it’s your Christian duty to destroy those atheistic communists.
EDWARD
You have archaic attitudes, which are incompatible with the generation to which I belong. Everything new and radical, according to you, mother, is degenerate. You can’t stop the world from evolving…nothing remains in a constant state…without change humankind becomes stale and lifeless. Ah, dad knows what I’m talking about. There is hope for him…unfortunately for you, mother, society will leave you behind
