[Oh look, they match. Frankie's tone is as neutral as he can make it. Cautious.]

Long time ago.

[ It takes a while for Ed to respond. When he does, his voice is irregularly quiet. ]

Not all of it.

I guess that depends.

[ He's being vague, sorry Frankie. It's the first clip that's really hanging heavy on his conscience right now. ]

[And it's the second Frankie can't get over.]

Dunno what I'm supposed to say.

Bromley never really cared about the substitute, you know.

I didn't know.

[There's a pause.]

Doesn't surprise me.

I should have expected it, but I wanted to believe-

[ He gets quiet for a moment. ]

To believe I could have done something. [ Even if he did, it had it's consequences. See one example-- Frankie. ] He wanted a substitute for the masses, humans for the rich.

You did plenty.

Not enough.

[ There's an awkward bit of silence here. ]

[ The silence could crush an ox. ]

I can't say I forgive you, Frankie. [ A beat. ] But if I had a chance to change things, I wouldn't.

[Frankie sounds bitterly amused.]

You started talking to me again eventually. That was more than I hoped for.

Surprised myself, for a time.

[ God, he'd like a cigarette. Right when he was cutting down. ]

But then, if you hadn't done it, we'd never have found it.

I wasn't wrong. You would've died.

I am sorry, though. Always was.
