[Cousineau sits in his trailer, alone. From somewhere offscreen, Barry enters.]
They let me keep my beard! Yeah, they said some Pharma guys actually have a beard like this.
[Barry pats Cousineau on the shoulder. Cousineau flinches and rolls both his shoulders. Barry groans and sits across from him.]
Wanna run lines? Yeah, alright. "What I did was terrible, and I'm truly sorry."
"I accept your apology."
That was great! Ah, man. This trailer is nice! I might go over to the Wheel of Fortune building, take some pictures--
Did she suffer?
[A prolonged beat as Barry's smile slides off his face. He shakes his head "no".]
But she figured out that it was you she was looking for. And I invited you to my cabin...
[Barry sighs.]
Who was that guy that took me into the woods?
He's nobody. Actually, y'know what? That's not true; I wanna be honest with you because I think we have a good thing going here, um... He's a family friend. He's actually kinda like a--
An uncle? He got you into this line of work? So that monologue... that you gave me when I first met you, that was fuckin' true! And then I said it again at the dinner table... And she knew it was you.
Hey, we don't need to rehash all this--
If I didn't say anything... She'd be alive today.
Aw, no, don't put that on yourself, Mr. Cousineau. No, she was good at her job. The whole thing's just really unfortunate, y'know? Look, I believe -- a-and some of this, I got from your teachings -- that... That, that you can be the version of yourself that you wanna be.
I never said that to you.
What I'm saying is... is that I never would've learned that if it wasn't for you.
So I'm responsible for who you are?
The positive side, yeah! I mean, meeting you changed my life for the better, you know?
[Beat]
Look, we've both done terrible things in our lives, but we're helping each other... make up for it! Ya know? I mean, you got a line! [Barry chuckles sardonically.] You're welcome.
