Because karma need some push

Revenge is selfcentered, probably immoral and unlawful, this is your warning. You have been warned.

A couple weeks before they shot that scene, Mandy had lost his father to cancer. He channeled all that grief into the final scene.

So that's why it was so emotional...

Well played.

“I want my father back you son of a bitch” 😭

Honestly I wish I had an emotionally supportive dad so that I could fully understand this sentiment, but as things are I can only appreciate it from an artistic perspective.

Don't get me wrong, I'm grateful he's still around. He's grown up in a lot of ways, but in many ways he's still the same and I've had to just learn to accept that he'll never be the father figure I always needed...

I agree with this. Mine entered hospice without even telling me; I found out he died from his friends.

You just have to work with what you're given, and do a better job for your own children.

Bold of you to assume I'll have children.

Sorry for your loss though

Mandy

In my head canon, Mandy Patinkin's first name is short for "Mandrew".

I know it's not the case, but don't care because the thought makes me lol
