- He should be here any minute.

- Can you make

sure he gets this?

- What is...

- please, it's an emergency.

- What kind of...

- Good morning.

- This was left here for you.

They said it was an emergency.

- Okay, thank you.

- "Mom, something very bad

"is gonna happen

today at school.

"If I can stop it,

I promise I will.

"I couldn't stop dad

from killing himself.

"I can't seem to stop you

from killing yourself either.

"But maybe I can stop some

things that are even worse.

"If I can't, know that I tried.

"When Paige gets

here, keep her safe.

"Keep her here until

you hear from me.

"Or until you simply hear.

- Have an emergency

here at blue rock.

"I love you,

"Tyler."

- You can't have her, Indrid.

You can't have her.

- Hi.

- Let's go.

- Oh my god!

- That's okay.

Doesn't change a

damn thing anyways.

All for nothing.

- No, not for nothing.

- For what then?

To love?

Why does it mean so much to you?

- Because without it,

we're monsters, Indrid.

- So, what do you think you are?

- No.

No, I know you lied about Derek,

about Paige, about everything.

How do you do this to someone?

To me?

Answer me, you coward!

- Look at this.

Look who finally decided

to step up like a man.

- Why don't you man up and

tell me the truth, you snake?

- Easy, now Ty, easy.

You are in no position

to be arguing with me.

- Why'd you even

bother pretending?

- Because at one point,

I thought I'd take you

along for the ride.

- I confided in you.

I trusted you.

- You don't think

I confided in you?

You don't think I

trusted you, hmm?

I was there for you

since the beginning.

And you turn your

back on me, for what?

For what?

Some insipid idea?

Some b*tch?

- Listen to yourself.

Listen to yourself, Indrid.

It's not how you think it is.

- I know how it is.

- How we carry ourselves

in times of adversity

defines who we are.

- Our actions

ultimately determine

what we're really made of.

- This isn't the

way it has to end.

It doesn't have to

be this way, Indrid.

- It was always

meant to be this way.

All of it.

Who I am, what I've done,

what I'm about to do.

I've been fighting since

the day I was born.

And I am

sick of it.

Now, I'm going to go in there

and I'm gonna do this thing.

And there isn't anything

you can do to change that.

- You're so certain

about everything, Indrid.

- Who's gonna stop me?
