Baba I'm Fine

When Sama’s girlfriend blows off their Friday plans, the heartbroken teen mourns by raging and daydreaming to pop-punk music in her room. After her girlfriend starts posting Instagram pics with another girl, Sama accepts her dad's invitation to hang out instead. He thinks they're spending quality time together - she's using him to take pics of her "fun" evening out. Right as father and daughter begin to bond, Sama gets a pivotal text and decides whether or not to open up to him.
