Anita is -- the curse...
Oh, come out and say it, Reeve. You failed her.
I did everything I could.
You say that quite a lot.
It wasn't my fault!
Of course it wasn't. But eventually you have to wonder, old man, the people you love keep dying, and there's only one common factor. That would be you.
Shut up.
Your mother. Shalua. And now Anita. She begged you to save her and you just let her slip away.
It wasn't like that. She's not -- she'll be fine --
This time.
No!
Keep loving, Reeve. Eventually you'll run out of people to die on you.
