The dialogue between the father and the son shows a reversal in audience expectations. We see the father shouting and swearing at the teenager, which is normally something we would expect to hear from the teenager. The father's aggressive reaction to the diegetic rock music plays to the stereotype that teenagers play loud music and are inconsiderate to older people. His reaction also plays to the stereotype that teenagers frustrate their parents.
Another sound used in the scene is diegetic sound, this is used for the different alarms that the protagonist has which shows that his life has a routine ,that he sticks to because the protagonist does different things for each alarm this challenges stereotypes as most teenagers are not very organised and don't really have a routine that they stick to everyday for example the first alarm that goes off is used to show when the teenager is supposed to wake up. then the next alarm is to show that it is the same time when the naked women across the road gets changed and so he has an alarm to remind him of that so that he can go and watch.
Another diegetic sound used is the church bell at the very beginning which could represent the age of the town as being older people and so having teenagers in the town could become disrupted because of the age group that lives there the loud music that the teenage boy proves this the music disrupts the household.
