Lines from Episode 1

“Uncle Alex! When you couldn't afford tuition back then, Dad went to work on an offshore oil rig, battling freezing storms day and night! His skin was baked raw by the open sea and blasted by freezing saltwater, and his lower back was completely destroyed from wrestling heavy drill pipes. It's fine if you won't lend us money, but how can you speak such cold-hearted words?”
