“Don’t try to quote to me…” Original Broadway Cast of Violet (Ft. Alexander Gemignani, Emerson Steele & Sutton Foster)

[FATHER, spoken]
Don't try to quote to me from the Book of Suffering. 

[YOUNG VI, spoken]
You don't know anything about it!

[FATHER, spoken]
I know its every page by heart!

[VIOLET, spoken]
I'd like to see you try this face on before you dare speak to me of suffering. 

[FATHER, spoken]
What is it you want to hear?

[VIOLET, spoken]
You know what I want to hear!

[FATHER, spoken]
That it was all my fault? Is that what you want me to say? Alright then. It was all my fault. I'm sorry, and there's an end to it. 

[VIOLET, spoken]
There is no end to it. Not for me. 

[FATHER, spoken]
Just tell me what you want, damn you. I will do it; I will say it. What does it take?
