本對話選自Kyle XY《神奇凱爾》。Stephen聽說Lori要和Declan出去玩,表示自己對Declan的不信任和對Lori的擔心，希望Lori能重新選擇，可是Lori很堅決地要和Declan在一起。

Lori: Bye, dad.
Stephen: Where are you off to?
Lori: Just going to hang with Declan before the carnival.
Stephen: Declan.
Lori: You say his name with such enthusiasm.
Stephen: What do you see in that guy?
Lori: Dad.
Stephen: You know, you could find someone solid and honorable, someone who hasn't been in a felony.
Lori: Declan owned up to that accident. He's doing community service now.
Stephen: Ha, well, I feel so much better. I was his age once. I know how boys like him think.
Lori: Oh, really, how's that?
Stephen: I really don't want to think about it. No, I'm serious, Lori. I don't trust him.
Lori: Well, then I guess you'll just have to trust me.
