This conversation is from an early scene in the first episode of the TV Series [Preacher](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt5016504/). Just tweaked the layout a bit to make it more of a reading. Full script can be found [HERE](https://www.springfieldspringfield.co.uk/view_episode_scripts.php?tv-show=preacher-2016&episode=s01e01).

Don't tell me you're here to bitch about the air-conditionin'.
Broken-down piece of junk.

*It's about my dad.
I don't like him.*

Why don't you like him? 

*'Cause he's mean.
Not to me.
I mean he is, but you know, mostly...* 

He's mean to your mom.
So you want me to talk to someone? 

*Talkin' won't help.*

Well, you're hangin' there like a shirt on a hook, so you got somethin' in mind.
Words, kid. What do you want? 

*I want you to hurt him.*

You know, it's a sin just to ask me that.

*I know, but he sins, too.
He sins worse, and he's got it comin'.*

[Laughs] Well, in that case 

*Don't laugh. 
People said before you came back here before you were a preacher you did things.*

So, bring me a beer and maybe I'll do some of those things to your daddy.
How hurt you want him? How far do I go? One punch? Two? Problem is, your daddy's a big fella.
Imagine a couple punches just gonna make him mad.
He's gonna fight back.
Then his buddies are gonna want to help out.
I'll need to defend myself.
Things will escalate.
That's what these things do.
They escalate.
And violence makes violence.
It makes nothing much at all.
Is that what you want, kid? Doesn't mean I can't still, you know help out with your daddy.

*Help how?*

I don't know.
We'll figure somethin' out.
"A man's heart plans his way but the Lord directs his steps.

*" Right.
Pray for me, Preacher.*
