I was in the hospital having a baby. I get into an elevator, which is like a large room. There’s a young man there who is creepily hitting on a young lady. I stop him saying, “She’s not interested leave her alone.” Suddenly my dad (who I do not like) comes out of nowhere. He has a disposable baking pan with hot boiling oil in it. He starts frying cobs of corn. The creepy kid Makes fun of what my Dad is cooking. So in reaction my Dad throws the boiling oil onto the kid. A female security guard arrests him. My dad says it was self defense of the girl against the creepy kid. But the security guard said that I had already handled the situation. She cuffs my Dad and takes him into a stairwell.
