[Chase is sitting in a church confessional]
Bless me father, for I have sinned.
Take your time. How long has it been since your last confession?
I killed a man.
Oh.
It was the right thing to do.
Who lives or dies is not your decision to make.
Sometimes in an operating room it feels like it. I'm a doctor.
Well then you should know more than anybody that every human life is sacred.
Why? Tell me what's sacred about a dictator who kills hundreds of thousands of his own people.
What is sacred about a doctor who kills a patient?
Is it just the slippery slope you're worried about? Afraid if for forgiving me for killing the worst person on Earth sets a bad precedent? I promise, I won't tell anyone. Just forgive me.
Saying ten Hail Marys isn't going to do you any good.
Look, what do I have to do? What does God need me to do?
You can't have absolution without first taking responsibility. You have to turn yourself in to the police.
What and go to jail for the rest of my life? What's just about that? I did the right thing! There has to be another way.
You want absolution? I told you how to get it.
