In jail, Leo anxiously waits for his mother, Diana, who arrives with a sarcastic greeting. She reaches for a letter in front of Leo, but he snatches it away. They engage in a heated exchange, with Diana mocking Leo’s tendency to overanalyze. Leo reveals that he’s started therapy, encouraged by Marina, but Diana dismisses it as new-age nonsense. She belittles Leo, suggesting he needs to “be a man” and questioning his need for therapy.
Leo confronts Diana about her abusive behavior, recalling a childhood incident where she humiliated him. Diana cynically remarks that such experiences build character, comparing Leo to Jean Hackman, who overcame childhood bullying. Leo, determined to speak his mind, tells Diana he’s entitled to his feelings and accuses her of manipulating and controlling him throughout his life.
