Chuckie's Best Part of My Day, Explained：take this the wrong way
Chuckie isn't telling Will to give up on Southie. He's telling him to stop hiding. "You know what the best part of my day is?" he asks — the answer is the ten seconds outside Will's door, hoping he's finally gone. The anger is love wearing the only disguise it has.
あらすじ
Chuckie tells Will he's wasting his life: he's sitting on a winning lottery ticket and too scared to cash it in. When Will pushes back, Chuckie admits the truth — the best part of his day is the ten seconds outside Will's door, hoping Will has finally left South Boston. Then Lambeau corners Sean, furious that therapy is driving the boy away.

What's really going on
Chuckie's threat that he'll kill Will is a joke that isn't one: staying in Southie is a slow death, and he'd rather Will hate him now than watch that happen. "I mean, you're sittin' on a winnin' lottery ticket," he says — the point isn't money, it's that Will keeps choosing a life whose ending he can already see. The speech lands because Chuckie gains nothing by it; he'd trade everything for what Will has. Sean makes the same case later, against Lambeau, who wants results on his own timetable. Both men are arguing about Will's future, but only Chuckie asks the question that matters: why is Will running?

このシーンについての質問
Why does Chuckie want Will to leave South Boston?
He sees Will's mind as a way out and can't stand watching him waste it. Chuckie even says he'd do anything to have what Will has, and that his favorite part of the day is hoping Will is gone.
Why is the ten seconds outside Will's door Chuckie's best part of the day?
Because in those seconds he can believe Will finally left Southie for something bigger. It's hope, not their nights out, that he lives for.
Why is Lambeau so angry at Sean?
Lambeau brought Sean in to help Will, but thinks Sean's therapy is teaching him that quitting is acceptable. He accuses Sean of letting the boy walk away from his gift.
What does 'sittin' on a winnin' lottery ticket' mean?
It means holding something enormously valuable without ever using it. Chuckie uses it for Will's genius and the life it could buy him if he'd cash it in.
