I have no use for narcissism.

WAR JOURNAL ENTRY

People are obsessed with analyzing my behavior.

I think anyone that's ever come across me will conclude that I'm low on the schizoid disorder scale, although Matt and Micro may disagree.

Consider me the United States of Frank.

High anti-social disorder. That comes as no real surprise.

I'd submit that the avoidant disorder score may not be as high as it, perhaps, should be, Frank.

[subtle_guns]

If you mean my family, I don't avoid.

[murdock_matt]

You know, the first step toward solving a problem is admitting that it exists, Frank.

[subtle_guns]

What problem would that be?

There is a problem. They died.

[murdock_matt]

And instead of dealing with your grief, you're extending it to envelop the entirety of New York City.

Healthy.

You think this is still about grief? It was either eat my gun after Maria died, or do something to make sure the men that killed her wouldn't be getting the chance to take someone else's wife or husband away. I tried the justice system, Matt. It failed me, it failed my family, and it fails countless people every single day. You think you're the first to use the grief metaphor? What about the pedophiles that walk out of prison every day with the highest rate of recidivism out of any other crime?

[murdock_matt]

The last person who'll argue the ineffectivity of the system with you is me these days, Frank. After all, I'm finding out first hand just what it'll do to a man, aren't I?

[subtle_guns]

Prison didn't break me. It shouldn't break you, either.

Problem is, you're not a killer. That might get you dead.

This isn't about grief with me. I'll give you Cavella, though, in case you hadn't heard.

[murdock_matt]

Won't break.

Might bend. A lot.

[maria_castle]

I what?

Frank? What are you talking about?
