"That's why I've come to you, to ask you... if you could persuade your father... as a man, as a father himself... that if I turn myself in now, peacefully... and before he puts me away forever... that he would let me see my son... for one last time." "Could you do that for me?" "It's out of my father's hands now." "I understand." "He's a puppet now." "BANNER:" "I don't blame him." "BETTY:" "You shouldn't." "You should blame yourself for what you've done to your son." "And what have I done to my son, Miss Ross?" "Nothing." "I tried to improve on the limits in myself." "Myself, not him." "Can you understand?" "To improve on nature." "My nature." "Knowledge of oneself." "It's the only path to the truth... that gives men the power to go beyond God's boundaries." "You know what's beyond your boundaries?" "Other people." "All you've given Bruce is fear." "A fear of life." "Fear?" "Perhaps, Miss Ross." "And loneliness, too." "Yes." "I feel them both." "But I have lived... completely once." "I was so much in love." "And she so much wanted a baby... my baby." "I could tell from the moment she conceived... that it wasn't a son I had given her... but something else." "A monster, maybe." "I should have put a stop to it right then... but I was curious... and that was my downfall." "And as I watched this tiny life unfold..." "I began to imagine the horror of it... and my curiosity was replaced... with compassion." "But they took away my chance to cure him." "Your father threw me out."
