-Jack, try as they might, every family generally has a “favorite.” Joe Jr. got the nod in this one well enough. Your dad has especially grand hopes for him, and your mom gives him a bit of special favor. It’s none of your brother’s fault, and it’s none of his doing.

- I know that, Grandpa. Joe’s a great guy. Don’t get me wrong. Heck, I would do anything for him, and he would for me too, and has plenty. Don’t get me wrong.

-Just gets a bit wearying sometimes, forever being Joe Kennedy’s kid brother, doesn’t it?
