A gift from me and my ex.

Charlotte Chambers."

- Talk.

- What do you want me to say?

I am who I am.

Or if you're watching this-

who I was.

What is this?

It's beginning to look like

that confession you wanted.

My death, like my life, will be spectacular.

What do you do when someone

you trust gives you a gift?

A disease without any warning.

Well, you can't blame me

for wanting to share the gift.

Yes, I'm sorry.

But who is sorry for me?

For those of you I might

have hurt, what can I say?

Be more careful.

You never know where

the bogeyman is.

And those of you who wanna

make judgment, hell, it ain't my fault.

You want guys like us

to be open and honest...

so you can publicly

humiliate us and condemn us.

I might be a coward,

but I ain't stupid.

I will never let you

treat me like that. Never!

I'll play the monster.

And I'm just like you.

I never thought

it would happen to me.

And, yes...

the bogeyman is for real.

I'm gonna give you more

of a chance than you gave me.

Bravo.

Thank you, Detective.

Captain would be better.

Captain.

Well, I am pleased to announce

that after a vigorous...

and thorough investigation...

my department has freed

an innocent woman...

who was falsely accused

of first-degree murder.

Now regardless of my political ambition-

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done

on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread...

and forgive us our trespasses...

as we forgive those

who trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation-

For all of us, there is light.

But passion...

without responsibility...

is not only

a self-destructive act...

but like the godless stone

of ignorance...

dropped in the rippling pond

of tragedy.

In this day and these times...

it can destroy

those we love the most.

- Charlotte's suicide will

not keep her from God's arms.

- Thank you.

If a man does not seek humility...

humility will seek man.

Thank you for coming.

Are you okay?

It'll be good

to be back home again...

running my own studio.

I just want you to know...

that none of this is your fault.

There's nothing

you could have done...

that would have made a difference.

I've been tested and, uh...

they didn't find anything.

Same with me.

Val, I told you-

You know, I've been struggling with this.

Was I the friend

you needed me to be?

Was I the wife you needed me to be?

Was I the Christian

you needed me to be?

And... could you have stopped?

Could you?

I don't know.

I love you, Dutch.

But I can't...

trust you anymore.

- Daddy!

- Hey, sweetheart.

Oh!

I love you.

I love you more.

My beautiful girl.

- Be good. Okay?

- Okay.

Okay, go to Mama.

All right.

I love you, Son.

Are you showing the house?

Not now. Uh, the Realtor

will be here tomorrow.

Why don't you come back then?

You hear that, baby?

We might have just found

the house of our dreams.

Hey, um, you mind

if I look around inside?

It's dusty around here. You look like

you got something in your eye.

What did you say?

I think you got something in your eye.

You want me to blow it out for you?

Hey.

We'll come back

and look another day, okay?
