The story: Eric Menendez is a gifted, spoiled rich kid.
He lives with his overbearing, judgemental, mentally and physically abusive father and mother, who doesn't seem to step in when she should.
Eric just wants to please his father, but there seems no pleasing him.
When his older brother Lyle comes home for a visit from college, Eric explains the abuse that hasn't stopped is continuing on a regular basis.
Lyle wants Eric to go to school where he goes so he can get away from their parents, but after approaching his parents about the idea he gets shot down.
