For a while there, I believed in you, Connor. Thought you might restore my faith in the world...
[It had been stupid to hang all his hopes on Connor like that. To put all his eggs in one goofy-looking basket. But he'd been drowning for so long, under his grief and his anger, trapped alone behind walls he'd put up around himself.
He'd just thought maybe life had finally thrown him a fucking rope. And boy, if that wasn't true. It was just that the rope was tied for him, all he did by hoping was put it on his neck and get up on that chair.]
But you just showed me that androids are our creation. Creation in our own image. Flaws and all...
[He looks up at Connor again, a wry smile twisting the corner of his lips and falling far short of reaching his empty eyes.]
You opened my eyes, Connor. Made me see that it was hopeless.
