"And I know that it wasn't your fault because I read the report and you were pulling,"


"......a double shift,"


"...you had a new baby and a lotta nights without sleep."


"And this guy jumps off the bench."


"It happened in one maybe two seconds."

Ray, "I couldn't stop him."


Alex, "Nobody's blaming you."

Ray, "That court reporter, he shot her in the face and I couldn't stop him."

"She's a good girl, Emily she's a..."


Ray, "I don't need you to tell me that."


"I know she's...she's precious, you know, she's,


"......she looks like her mother."

Ray, "Joyce, Ashley was killin' her...she abandons her sister doesn't even take care of her own mother."


"You found Emily, she got home safe."

Ray, "Joyce was crying. She couldn't stop shakin'"


"Yeah, but you knew that they were hurting and y..you had to protect them."

Ray, "Joyce didn't even get angry. She was worried about Ashley after everything...tell me how is that possible?"


"I don't know."


"It's mothers..you know..." (He takes a couple of steps towards Ray.)


(Ray jerks his gun up,) "Back off."


(Bobby steps back.)


"You knew what was going on with her,"


"...you knew what was inside of her."

Ray, "The cancer cells they feed on stress. Joyce was never gonna get better."


"See Ashley was toxic. She was toxic to Joyce."

and give your mother some peace and she laughed at me, and I slapped her and she looked at me, spit in my face, Joyce is never gonna forgive me. (He points the gun back beneath his chin.)


"Hey, she needs you."

"...and I'm all she's got and that's all Joyce's got is you."

Ray, "No. Not anymore."


"Look we can do something here."


"They can help you out."


"They'll hold the charges,"


"...you can spend time with Joyce you can stroke her hair,"


"...hold her hand..."

Ray, "Aw you think I'm dumb, some small town cop who'll roll over for the N.Y.P.D.?"


"I never said that."

Ray mocking, "We can work this out...let my partner go, Ray crap. I let her go cause I don't want to kill her...I want to kill YOU and then me."


"Who's gonna clean up the mess?"


"Your daughter..huh,"


"her mother?"


(Ray picks up a cell phone and tosses it to Bobby,) "Here, call your mom...say goodbye."


"Aw, come on, Ray." (He throws the phone back.)
