.08. [voice] i guess i don't see the point in crying over a dead rabbit

I don't get it. Why should I feel bad when an inmate here dies or leaves? We're all dead anyway and most of them come back. We don't have meaningful lives and it's not like we were good people. I mean, I'm sorry, don't get me wrong.. I like some of the inmates here, but half of them are lost in ignorance.. and ignorance is bliss, so I guess I would be happy if I were them too. But why should I care if they leave? I guess I just don't see the point in crying over a dead inmate when they probably didn't even fear dying anyway.

Why?

Ccht.. that's what they tell me, but.. I don't know. I guess.

Because it's a lonely life, thinking that way. And we're getting to be friends, right? I'm going to have to care about you at some point, otherwise I'd fail you as a friend.

Can I ask what it is they think you did?

Private

Yeah, but.. that doesn't mean you would miss me if I left.

What? They know what I did. I flooded the school and I burned down that pervert's house. Then I guess they got mad because I started going a little bit crazier and I tried to save Gretchen but I couldn't, so I shot Frank for killing her.. but then it didn't matter anyway because I fixed the tangent universe and so I died and all the manipulated dead were living again.

[Incredulous.] Of course I would miss you, why the hell wouldn't I miss a friend??

[And you sort of broke her brain.]

Doesn't sound so bad to me. I mean, defending a friend and taking out a pervert.

..Well.. ff.. I.. chh.. I don't know.

I guess it was, you know, because I'm here.

Private

Well, I'd certainly want you on my team.
