But my sister isn't dangerous! She doesn't go around threatening people over stupid stuff. She wouldn't hurt anyone that didn't deserve it.
What other choices did I have? Maybe, maybe the trap wasn't my brightest moment. [It pains him to say it, even for the sake of trying to make a point. He feels he must return Alice's loyalty, even in this.] But it happened. I can't change that. I had to do something from there. This was the better option. I promised I'd stop fighting, so trying to kill him. This was the peaceful way to settle it. Alan said he'd fix it. Alan's made him, for something else. To be something better. He'd know how to fix this and he was going to! Me around or not.
Alice would have went alone to get him and I couldn't let her do that. What if he killed her?
If a mistake was already made, this was the only option we had to keep it from getting worse.
