This report's the truth!

I'd like you to know that if you go

to trial with this, you'll fail again.

You'd better ask yourself

how you want to finish your career.

I've got a long list of New York lawyers...

...who'd just love to take you

and this case apart in front of a jury.

Mother...

Come on, let's go.

They can't hurt you anymore.

John?

This is your ball game.

I'm gonna leave this up to you.

Come on.

It's time.

Even when it's warm here, it's cold.

It won't be like that in Arizona.

There is no Arizona.

I don't have to go.

It was a lie.

My editor...

...the story, the book...

...it's all over.

Do I still have to worry about you?

I don't know how to feel

about what you did.

Maybe I never will.

But I know you did it for me.

I don't want to lose you again.

Go on.

You're not gonna lose me.

You go on.
