Worm Full-Cast Production - Arc 2: Insinuation
Terry Tibke for Danny Hebert
Danny is the main character's father, and he is in his 40s. He is a tall and thin balding man with a weak chin, and he wears glasses. He has anger management issues, but generally does a good job of controlling it - but the anger is still there.
Danny is a widower whose wife died in a car crash about three years before the story began. He is protective of his daughter, but is unaware of the extent to which she is still being bullied at school, and later unaware of her powers and her activities as a villain.
Danny works as a representative of the dockworker's union, and his passion for the city's now-defunct docks is an inspiration for his daughter to work towards the city's betterment.
[Angry and frustrated because his daughter is being treated poorly, including by an old friend. Don't include narration.]
“For the last time, Alan, shut up,” my dad growled, “My daughter is right. This has been a joke. I have a friend in the media. I think I’m going to give her a call, email her that list of emails and the list of incidents. Maybe pressure from the public would get things done.” (5.4)
[Upset that his daughter hasn't been fully honest with his. Firm, but trying not to be angry. Interrupted at the end.]
“I could maybe understand, I know what you’ve been dealing with, except you didn’t just leave me in the dark. You lied to me.
"I called the school to get an update on how you were doing, and they said you hadn’t been to class in some time, and I didn’t know what to do. I just- I felt completely lost. I called your Gram.”
“She convinced me that maybe I’ve been too focused on being your ally, and not focused enough on being your parent. If she’d told me that a week ago, I would have hung up on her. But after talking to your school, realizing how badly I failed you-” (6.9)
[Seeing his daughter for the first time since some major events happened. Don't include narration.]
“You’re so different,” he said. “You’re standing straighter, dressing like you aren’t trying to hide in your clothes, moving with more purpose. I think you’ve grown, too. So many people, they seem like they’ve been burdened by what’s going on, they’ve given up a little, lost important things. That just makes the contrast between you and them that much stronger.” (15.10)
Hell yeah, I'm so glad you auditioned!

Congrats Terry! :D
