[Another man sits beside the farmhouse, reading a book.

Unlike Phillip, this is a physical book and in a rare moment of eating his lunch, he catches Cougar in a moment of not speeding around on foot or in a car.]

...

[Suddenly, Cougar bursts out in laughter!]

If everyone is still alive, then it worked out fine.

Well.. not everyone...

[Y'know. Only his whole family is dead.]

But I'm alive. And Shotaro's live. And Akiko and Terui.

No, it's not that simple. But it all turned out for the best.

My name is Philip.

[Just Philip. no last name. Which is weird because he's Japanese.]

Just Phillip?

That's a bit strange... not unprecedented, I guess.

"Philip" is all I need.

I like it. It's a good name.

Strange for a Japanese fellow, though. You named after someone?

My partner's mentor gave me the name when they first rescued me. I didn't remember my name then, so he gave me "Philip" after Philip Marlowe.

He said it was the name of someone he respected. I had no other name at the time, so it stuck.
