Speech & Pronunciation

What did the kid say?

At 55 seconds,

Guy: Why do you love mom more?
Kid: __________________________
Guy: Evan, _______________________________?
Kid: I don't know. Sometimes he's rude I guess.

I can't make sense out of what the kid (Evan?) said.
Also, the next line is not clear to me. It sounds like "why can't you stay with your father?", which doesn't really make sense.

Guy: Why do you love mom more? Kid: Because [her's / is / she's] nicer, I think . — The grammar should of course be 'she's, but the boy has erred in some way; perhaps it is just sloppy pronunciation.
