Script
Jared Frio: I'm sorry, Connor... I couldn’t save her. It’s all my fault.
Jared's Father: You’re a murderer, Jared. You killed your own mother! It’s all your fault!
Jared: You’re suspending me? But that’s not fair! I didn’t start the fight!
Teacher: The other kids say that you did, Jared. They’re saying it’s your fault.
Jared's Father: Why did you make me do that, Jared? It's all your fault!
Claire: This relationship is over, Jared! And it’s your fault!
Echoing voices from the past: It’s all your fault…
It’s all your fault… Is all your fault…
It’s all my fault…
Thoughts/Notes
I actually thought about omitting this part because I don't want to scare anyone off. 😬
I will admit, this turned out to be a bit heavier/more dramatic than I intended. 😅 Sorry for the slightly darker themes than usual, but I felt like it was important to share a glimpse into Jared’s troubled backstory before going forward. He has a very deep sense of guilt and shame instilled within him that has tailed him most of his life as a result of his mother's death and his father's mistreatment of him (and it definitely plays a big role in his behavior).
