Quote from Tonya in Everybody Hates the Buddy System

Adult Chris: [v.o.] All that could save Tonya was a sad look.
Julius: What's going on?
Tonya: Mom's really mad at me.
Julius: [sighs] Tell me what happened.
Tonya: I just wanted to wear earrings like my friends, so I took Mom's gold hoops, and I lost one.
Julius: Oh, Tonya.
Tonya: Do you think maybe I could save up and buy another pair?
Julius: It's not about the money, Tonya. I gave your mother those earrings. You can't replace them.
Tonya: What are you going to do?
Adult Chris: [v.o.] My father could've spanked Tonya, or grounded her until she was grown, but he said something that made her feel worse than all of that.
Julius: I'm really disappointed in you.
[fantasy: Tonya is on her bed wearing Oriental clothes:]
Tonya: Father, I have brought disgrace to myself and to our family.
Julius: Tonya, no!
Tonya: Leave me now, Father. I must whup myself until you can find it in your heart to forgive me.
