[he doesn't make eye contact. whether it's from embarrassment at his obvious lack of results or not is unclear.]

He pissed me off bad enough, I guess.

[it's embarrassing now, realizing just how consumed he was by his scheme. weeks flying by and he has nothing to say about them now but "I kept busy".]

I lured him down here - not here here, somewhere off in that direction maybe - and I came real close to drownin' him. Real close; he was literally turnin' blue, Ru. I could of done it if I'd of just left him there. Wouldn't ewen of got my gills dirty.

[he pauses. that glasses wiping isn't doing shit.]

But I couldn't.
