Tru's father asks his daughter why he does not feature prominently in the film. She reluctantly shows him the footage of him she did have, which shows him in a bad light. Another theme of the film is the father's inability to relate properly to his son. Throughout the film, the father constantly snaps at Eddie and finds it difficult to be patient with him. Tru and Eddie understand that their father's job is stressful and they understand. Their father realizes he needs to be a better father to Eddie and that no one should live like that. So the video is a reminder to him of how to be better.
