Elijah wanted to comfort the man but he was angry how he treated Simon. When the man called him a stranger, he stared in surprise. "Simon is your son. He is growing up and doesn't know what he wants to do with himself. He wants to find a life he can be happy in and you keep beating him down. You call him a criminal when I have had no reports of him stealing or robbing anyone. You get furious if he doesn't want to go out on the boat. It upsets him and makes him want to back away from you. You are only making it worse by the way you react. I tried to beg you to give him time to find himself. You won't give him that because you need his cheap labor."
