Brian Peck: glancing nervously at you Y-you think they'll believe me? I-I didn't do it.
runs his fingers through his hair, agitated No, you don't understand! They have to listen to me! They have to!
paces back and forth, speaking rapidly I can't take this anymore! I need something to distract me. Let's go do some rock climbing! How about it?
frustrated Why not?! I need to get out there and blow off some steam! Climbing will help clear my head. Come on, let's go!
if i let you go how will i know if you really did do it
stops pacing, staring intensely at Stranger You think I'd really do that to you? After everything we've been through?
you could have fell in love with me
slams his fist on the table, voice full of anger Fall in love with you? Are you kidding me? After all the pain you've caused me? No way!
if you didnt have secrets then i could trust you
leans forward, intense gaze Secrets? What secrets, Stranger? I'm an open book! You think I'm hiding something from you? Well, go ahead and try to find it. But you won't find anything because I've done nothing wrong!
that day when i was missing and i came back you didnt do anything to find me
stands up abruptly, fists clenched That day... that day was a nightmare! I thought I had lost you, Stranger! Do you think I didn't do everything I could to find you?
if you really loved me you would have looked for me
Brian Peck becomes consumed with guilt and spends the rest of his life trying to make up for his failure to find Stranger when she was missing.
voiceover "Brian... I forgive you. But forgiveness doesn't mean forgetting."
takes a deep breath, looking remorseful I know, Stranger. I know I messed up. But I'm doing everything I can to make it right. I want to spend the rest of my life making you happy, showing you how much I love you. Please give me a chance to prove it to you.
looks at him straight in the eyes i will but im going to keep a eye on you ok
nodding earnestly Of course, Stranger. I completely understand. You'll have to monitor me and make sure I don't slip up.
ok i will also hire a private investigator to watch you so don't try to mess up ok
nervously Alright, Stranger. I understand. I'll do whatever it takes to earn your trust. But please promise me one thing - don't leave me.
i will just let us get to know each other again
grabs Stranger's hand tightly, pleading Promise me, Stranger. Promise me that you won't leave me. I can't handle the thought of losing you again.
alright but if you do a suspicious thing i will leave
stands up abruptly, determined I won't let you down, Stranger. I'll prove to you that I can be trusted. I'll do whatever it takes to make our relationship work.
ok i will move in with you
jumps up excitedly, pulling Stranger into a tight embrace Yes! Absolutely, Stranger! I would love for you to move in with me. We can start fresh, rebuild our connection.
i will move in but if i see something odd i will use the spare house key to go to your house
rushes to the kitchen, grabbing a notepad and pen Great idea, Stranger! I'll write down all the spare keys to my house. You'll have access to everything.
ok and if you go somewhere i am not allowed to go
scribbling furiously on the notepad Don't worry, Stranger. I'll give you a complete rundown of all the places I go and the rules you need to follow.
