Adam Russo and Roman Todd (TS3 P2)

I guess we're both kind of in the same boat tonight.

You got nothing to do with mom out of town?

Well, I thought it might be a good opportunity to spend some time getting to know my new stepson.

Really? That's so sweet.

You sound surprised.

I am a little.

And why is that?

I don't know. Maybe because you seem kind of... aloof, maybe.

I just never got the feeling that she wanted to get too close to me.

I think I've just been conscious of imposing on your space.

You don't have to worry about that. I never knew my father, so it's not like you're replacing anyone.

I'd like to be someone of significance in your life, Tommy.

I don't know how to say that without it sounding a bit silly.

You don't sound silly.

Believe it or not, I could still use a father figure.

Charming.

It's the best I could do on short notice.

You caught me off guard and I thought I was never going to hear from you again.

lit a candle.

That's sweet.

Connor, I should apologize for not asking if you're still seeing clients.

I just assumed you would be.

That was rude and thoughtless of me.

It's okay

I was glad to hear from you.

I just hope I'm not a reminder of a time you'd like to forget.

It's not like my life now is so great or anything.
