"He said the files were done by hand" "Up until about 10 years ago" "When they..." "Sent 'em overseas" "To be put on computer disks." "When they came back, they were messed up." "Well, I jus" "How can they do that to people?" "I'm afraid that the most" "You're ever gonna know" "Is that the donors came" "From the university." "Mostly science majors." "You're not my father." "No." "I made a mistake." "I made a horrible, horrible mistake." "Should I go talk to her?" "Mm-mmm." "No." "She just--she just has to be alone" "For a while." "Well." "Well." "I guess you probably want to go back" "To work or something." "You probably need your rest, huh?" "Yeah." "Ok, then." "I, uh..." "I don't think I thanked you" "For being there for Zora and...me." "I wanted to be there." "I got to go to Las Vegas tomorrow." "Ahem." "I have a dealer's convention." "Sounds fun." "It's work." "I'll call you when I get back." "Ok." "Sarah, I'm sorry." "Me, too."
