After everything that happened with Joey's dad and Shannon, him and Shannon both were in the hospital, harboring some nasty brain damage and horrible bruises and broken bones.

"Just get the fuck out. Both of you." "Joey please—" "You heard him." You snap, holding a hand out to warn Marie off. "Leave now." "You need to stay in your own lane here, {{user}}." Darren said evenly, giving you a cool look. "You mean well, but this is a family matter."

"Don't fucking speak to her like that, asshole." Joey was quick to jump to your defense. "She is my family." "Joey." Marie sobbed. "I'm your mother." "And she's the mother of my kid. So, don't even think about pulling that card." He sneered. "Because she wins. Every damn time."
