The Confession Page #6

I wanted so badly to believe

that Dylan had returned

my daughter to me,

I tried to convince myself

that my doubts were wrong.

But something inside me told me

she wasn't who she said she was.

And you

were here the whole time,

never saying a word, worried

about me, protecting me.

Beautiful Katherine.

Or should I say, my beautiful

daughter, Katie Lapp?

How could you have

been so stupid, Dylan?

You arrogant, selfish...

Theodore's waiting downstairs with

a limo to take you to the airport.

And, uh, what's happened

to Alyson?

Mr. Morris Yates will be

escorting her back to Manhattan,

which, by the way, will be his last

official duty for my law firm.

Your very generous wife will not

be prosecuting either of you.

But just so we're clear,

instead of booking you

into a treatment facility in Florida,

she could have called the police.

And frankly,

that's what I would have done.

I'm such a fool.

A worthless fool.

She's beautiful, Laura.

I just wish

I could turn back the clock.

Be the man

that you deserve.

I love you, you know.

I'll pray for you.

Mama, are you okay?

Yes. Yes, I am.

May I ask,

how did you know I was me?

Come with me.

It was this.

I don't understand.

This is the letter I sent...

To your Mom and Dad.

I know, I was confused at first too.

But how did you come by it?

The mailbox.

I have my suspicions about a young

Amish man who visited last week.

Amish man?

He said he was your cousin.

Jacob Glick.

But I don't have a cousin Jacob Glick.

Or even a cousin Jacob.

But it's this letter that

made me realize who you were.

When you came to say goodbye the other

day, I wanted so badly to tell you,

but I had to remain silent

until now.

This is my last chance to force Dylan,

to get him the help he needs.

Okay. Enough of this

doom and gloom.

Come with me.

Choose anything you like.

Anything?

Anything.

Rosie?

Yes, ma'am?

Prepare a soiree to end all soirees.

And tell Selig to outdo himself.

The birthday girl is getting ready.

Yes, ma'am.

# Be thou my vision #

# O Lord of my heart #

# Naught be all else to me #

# Save that thou art #

# Thou my best thought #

# By day or by night #

# Waking or sleeping #

# Thy presence my light #

# Riches I heed not #

# Nor man's empty praise #

# Thou mine inheritance #

# Now and always #

# Thou and thou only #

# First in my heart #

# High king of heaven #

# My treasure thou art #

# High king of heaven #

# My victory won #

# May I reach heaven's joys #

# O bright heaven sun #

# Heart of my own heart #

# Whatever befall #

# Still be my vision #

# O ruler of all ##

Yeah? Let's see it.

No?

Yeah! All right, congratulations!

- She passed.

- Congratulations, Miss Katie!

Oh, your mom

would've been so proud.

You think so?

I know so.

I'm hoping that the newly licensed

lady of the manor

will still let me do the driving.

I would hate to have to go

looking for another job.

Absolutely, Theodore.

In fact, how about

you drive us into town

for that lunch I still owe Justin?

Really?

I'd love to.

That's what I'm talking about.

Oh, not you again.

Just one more time,

Mr. Kowalski.

I promise you, this is it.

It hasn't changed

since yesterday

or the day before, or five weeks

ago when you first came in.

Consider it officially

on layaway.

This girl,

she must be special.

I could buy everything

in here

and it still wouldn't come close

to expressing how special she is.

I'll be back soon with the other half.

Like I told you, I can't see her...

See her without the necklace.

I know, yes.

Come back soon. Quick.

Thank you, Mr. Kowalski.

Thank you.

So where to now?

Where to now... Um...

Have you ever been bowling?

No?

No.

But I've always wanted to try.

Okay. Ha-ha-ha.

Ha-ha-ha.

To the bowling lanes.

You got it.

Thank you.

Daniel?

Katie, who'd you just see?

It was someone

who it couldn't have been.

Katie Lapp,

you are the most beautiful creature

God has ever made.

And some day,

I'm going to marry you.
