Nicole: There was this girl. I thought she was my friend. And I found out she was spreading shit about me all over the internet, so I broke her nose with a book. I'm not sorry. And I don't like this game. Or this place. I'm a straight-A student, not a drug addict. But I would do what put me here again in a hot minute.
Bruce: Okay, so you believe the punishment fit her crime? Your former friend?
Nicole: Yep.
Bruce: So, violence was the answer? Is the answer?
Nicole: Well, if it means making things right...
Bruce: Making things right. What does that mean to you, making things right? Does that mean she should apologize? Take everything back, promise she'll never do it again? So, is that what happened after you broke her nose? Did she make things right?
Nicole: Well, you tell me what you think I should have done then. Just eat it? What about what she did?
Bruce: What about it? This is not the last time something like this is going to happen to you or to any of us. Terrible, painful, unjust shit will happen again and again and again. And the only part of any of it that you'll ever be able to control is how you react. You'd do what you did again in a hot minute, that's what you said. But you said it to me here, in this place. And that girl, whatever her name is? She's at home, eating hot food and sleeping in a bed. You're here.
