interogatting Cassie's dad from Help (Season 7) | Next Clip in Episode |
BUFFY: Buffy, the vampire slayer, would break down this door.
XANDER: And Buffy, the counselor?
BUFFY: Waits. Mr. Newton?
MR. NEWTON: That's right.
BUFFY: I work at your daughter's school. I need to talk to you.
MR. NEWTON: So, is she screwing up her grades again? Because she's not the sharpest apple in the barrel.
BUFFY: She's got some problems. But it's, um, it's kind of you we wanted to talk about.
MR. NEWTON: What about?
BUFFY: We know you've been picked up by the police a couple of times. We wanted to know if you still? drink a lot.
MR. NEWTON: What's that got to do with Cassie?
BUFFY: Frankly, we were worried that you might?drink too much and hurt Cassie. That's all.
MR. NEWTON: Oh. Oh, I see. That's-that's all. You just come in here in the middle of the night, into my home, and start accusing me of beating on my daughter? That's all?
BUFFY: We just want to make sure that Cassie's?
MR. NEWTON: Well, that's a lie! Who told you this? Did Cassie's mother put you up to this, 'cause I pay my support, OK? To the dime! She just wants to take away the one weekend a month I get to be with my girl.
BUFFY: Which is when?
MR. NEWTON: What?
BUFFY: Which weekend is it?
MR. NEWTON: I-I just had her last weekend. Look, I may not be the greatest dad in the world, but I don't beat up my daughter.
BUFFY: So, you won't be seeing her this Friday, then?
MR. NEWTON: Not unless my ex-wife gets a personality transplant.
BUFFY: OK.
MR. NEWTON: OK, what? OK now you'll get out of my house?
BUFFY: Yeah, we will.
