When Sean realizes that Orvil is an Indigenous American, he asks him whether he can say “Indian.” Orvil tells him no one really uses that term anymore, instead referring to themselves by their tribe's name. Orvil also tells Sean that none of it really makes sense to him. Sean then asked Orvil whether he plays music and what kind of medication he's taking for his pain. When Orvil tells him that he doesn't have enough, Sean offers to give him something better that his dad makes in their basement.
