Great... Oh, you know...
I'm going to miss this place.
The beach and everything.
End of an era.
Start of a new one, though.
Whole new life.
(soft chuckle) Maybe you should lie down for a bit, have a rest?
I just need a shower.
(laughing): I'm not an invalid!
Okay.
Okay, okay...
Sorry.
Sorry, sorry, don't listen to me.
I'm... (sighing): ...just a wave of nostalgia.

Have you?

LINEHAM (voiceover): And when it all went wrong, did you try to help the victim in any way?
Yeah, of course I tried.
Of course I tried.
It just happened really quickly and we were all in shock, weren't we?
What happened to your hand?
Uh...
I don't know.

About your health and Mark.

Going to kill me?
As long as you believe him, that's all that matters.
