  [chuckles] 

  Portia : I don't know, feel, like, fulfilled and have an adventure, and, like, I'm sick of fucking TikTok and... and Bumble, and just... screens and apps and sitting there binging Netflix. And I just... I just wanna, like, live. I just wanna live my life, so badly.

  [chuckles]

  Albie Di Grasso : Okay, Nonno.

  Bert Di Grasso : Well, that's what happened. He raped her. Then, he dragged her down to the underworld.

  Portia : Hmm. I didn't know that.

  Bert Di Grasso : Demeter forgave Hades, and he raped her daughter! I mean, whatever you've done can't be as bad as that. As Hades. And the raping.
