eight or nine,

"Did he get a concussion?
Did something happen?

change, and I, I swear...

Oh, and I loved to fight.
See, I'm not a mess,
but I do love a fight.
- Oh, it's the best.
- Totally underrated.
In the long run, not so much,
but in the moment?
- It's f*cking amazing.
- Oh, it's so good.
- But... I mean, that's just who I am.
- Yeah?
I used to think that's who
I was, too, until I met Sebastian.
You don't fight?
Not really, no.
- Really?
- Yeah.
I just don't think my
brain is wired that way.

You know, "You're gonna go to

Hell no.

So, you are cooperating with the police.
I do not know if that is

No, thank you.
It's good to see you.
I know you hate me.
I've done a lot of shitty things,
but, um... no, this isn't one of 'em.
What do you want?
First... to apologize.
I'm not interested.
I know, but you are gonna be
interested in the second thing.
Unfortunately for you, you're
gonna have to hear my apology first.
Uh...
I'm sorry...
for everything that I've done to you.
You didn't deserve it.
I was, uh... I was tryin'
to protect somebody that
didn't deserve to be protected.
If I could take it all back, I would.
But... I did what I did.
I found out about you
and my dad from, um...
from this disc.
Yeah, he, uh, he secretly
records every encounter he has,
and, you know, he's
been doin' it, well...
well, honestly, as
long as I can remember.
I stole it from him, and he had
a, he had a mental breakdown,
and he moved out of the house,
so I thought that I would, uh...
I thought I'd give it to
you, and, you know, you can
do with it as you please.
- So, there was a camera?
- Yes.
And you've seen it?
Yeah.
- Have a lot of people seen it?
- No, no.
Does he know you're giving this to me?
No... No. He would f*ckin' k*ll me.
Is this, like, the only copy, or...
is it other, other places?
I mean, it's the only
one that I know of, yeah.
Why are you giving this to me?
Honestly, the answer is
too stupid and simple.
I think it's better if
we just keep it a mystery.
What, did you become,
like, a good person?
Absolutely not, no.
I mean, you should've seen
what I had to do to get it.
I came out here with
a box cutter in my sleeve.
You know, in, in case there was a chance
I might have to slit your throat.
