I would like to think me and my ghost dad would set up some kind of elaborate Scooby-Doo like trap to catch and expose him. maybe even bond a little in the process.

(*piso mojado pulling off his uncle's rubber mask to reveal a fanged swamp monster underneath, everyone gasps*)
piso: but i don't get it, dad! if my uncle - your brother - was a swamp monster his whole life, how did he speak to us and pretend that he loved us?
ghost father: see? he had a tape recorder hidden in the foam rubber collar of the human suit - so that he could appear to "speak" like a real uncle!
(*everyone ahh's and nods*)

I killed my uncle. And the bizarre thing is that I did it for my ghostly old man. I murdered this poor guy because I wanted him to think that I was cool. He's always going off about how when he was in school and all the people he used to kill. And I got the feeling that he was disappointed that I never cut loose on anyone, right? So I'm sitting in the chapel and I'm pondering stuff, and Claudius is praying right next to me me. And he's kinda, he's kinda unaware. Weak. And I started thinkin' about my ghost father, and his attitude about, about weakness. And the next thing I knew, I jumped on top of him and started whaling on him. And my friends, they just laughed and cheered me on. And afterwards, when I'm sitting in the guardhouse, all I could think about was my ghost dad, and Claudius having to become a ghost and explain what happened to him. And the humiliation - the loving humiliation he must have felt. It must have been unreal. I mean, how... how do you apologize for something like that? There's no way. It's all because of me and my old man. God, I loving hate him. He's like this mindless ghost that I can't even relate to anymore.

'Hamlet! You've got to be number one! I won't tolerate any losers in this family! Your intensity is for poo poo! Kill kill kill!' You son of a bitch. You know, sometimes I wish my indecision would give. And I wouldn't be able to soliloquize anymore. And he could forget all about me.
