No, no, Omi, haven't you seen a cop show before? There's detectives behind the glass watching, but then there's one or two detectives in the room with the killer, too! I know that's real now, since that's what happened to me.

[In any case, after a long pause.]

I never wanted anyone to die, you know. I know no one believes me. But I think, maybe... it was a bit like when I had to count everything, before I got the hole in my head. I had to do it. Something in my head said I had to keep trying. Since they never died right away, every time I thought maybe they could be one of the ones that survived.
