[she's a natural at pivoting away from nostalgia while all henry wants to do is talk about it, especially if it means she's still talking to him. he had to give her up and protect her ex-husband in jail, knowing if he didn't someone else would come along. can't have that.]

I got enough autographs.
I like my keepsakes but I wanna see you one more time, for closure. Give a man some closure and I promise I'll leave you alone.
