Quote context

[...]

- I know.

- Anyway, when I was 17, I packed my things, said something awful, and left. After a while, I wanted to come home, but I didn't know how. Made it back for the funeral, though.

- What was the awful thing you said to your father?

- So the least you can do is bring back his hero.

- Well... Now I know what everybody's purpose here is, except mine.

- Daddy!

- Karin, come here.
