Benjamin left the study to look for Elijah. But just as he reached the door, he heard Elijah saying, "He's not a jerk; he's a good guy!"

"How is he not a jerk? Everything he does screams 'jerk'! You say he's a good dad and treats you well; sure, I'll buy that. But saying he's not a jerk? No way, I don't buy it."

"He... he didn't hurt your mom, he just didn't like her."

"Didn't hurt her? He fathered us! My brother found out everything. He thought my mom cheated during their marriage, kicked her out with nothing, and trashed her reputation! That's like the pot calling the kettle black. He does the dirty and blames someone else! And I should thank him for not liking my mom? As if! He doesn't deserve her. My mom's the best there is!"

"My... my mom's the best!"

"I'm not saying your mom isn't great, just that my mom's the top."
