"You're gonna get these shots. I want you to look at me now," Lee tenderly tells Debias before he's about to get vaccinated. "[You]gonna be good. I know you're gonna cry, but it's OK to cry."

As the first needle goes in, however, Lee breaks down as his son starts to wail.

"Man, I know, I know. I'm sorry," he pleads to Debias, their shared crying getting louder and louder. "Look at Dad, you gotta look at Dad. C'mon man, Daddy knows. One more..." The last shot. "Oh lord! I know, I know."

After it's done, Lee immediately sweeps Debias into his arms to soothe him.

"They did you wrong, man. I know, I know," he says.

"I signed up for fatherhood," he said. "And I thank God that I did."
