As she copes with the hostility of her neighbors, she reflects upon her memories of raising him. </p><p>Despite being a reluctant mother, Eva decides to start a family with Franklin by having Kevin. Eva views Kevin as detached and difficult from childhood. He appears to loathe and deliberately antagonize Eva, who struggles to bond with him. As a baby, he cries incessantly, but only around her; as a child, he resists <a href="/wiki/Toilet_training" title="Toilet training">toilet training</a>, rebuffs Eva's attempts at affection, and shows no interest in anything. He behaves like a happy, loving son in front of his father Franklin, who dismisses Eva's concerns and makes excuses for Kevin's behavior. One day, Eva's frustration with Kevin drives her to throw him against the wall, breaking his arm. Kevin tells Franklin he fell and uses the incident to manipulate Eva. </p><p>When Kevin is confined to bed with a fever, he shows affection towards Eva for the first time as she reads <a href="/wiki/Robin_Hood" title="Robin Hood">Robin Hood</a>, though his spiteful personality returns as soon as he recovers.

A few years later, Celia's pet guinea pig mysteriously goes missing. Eva finds its remains in the <a href="/wiki/Garbage_disposal" class="mw-redirect" title="Garbage disposal">garbage disposal</a> the next day, which she unclogs with <a href="/wiki/Drain_cleaner" title="Drain cleaner">drain cleaner</a>. Celia is blinded in one eye after being exposed to the cleaner while Kevin was tasked with watching her, requiring her to wear a glass eye in its place. Eva suspects Kevin injured his sister on purpose, but Franklin defends him. Tired of Eva's distrust of their son, Franklin discusses divorce with her, and Kevin overhears their conversation. </p><p>Three days before his 16th birthday, Kevin uses bicycle locks to trap several students in the school gymnasium and murders them with his bow and arrows. After witnessing Kevin's arrest and the bodies of his victims being carried away, Eva returns home to discover that Kevin has murdered Franklin and Celia as well. </p><p>On the second anniversary of the massacre, Eva visits Kevin in prison; his demeanor has changed to demure and frightened in his anticipation of being transferred to an adult prison. Eva asks him why he committed the murders. Kevin responds that he used to think he knew but is no longer sure. Eva embraces Kevin and leaves. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Cast">Cast</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=We_Need_to_Talk_About_Kevin_(film)&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Cast"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Tilda_Swinton" title="Tilda Swinton">Tilda Swinton</a> as Eva Khatchadourian</li> <li><a href="/wiki/John_C._Reilly" title="John C.
