Second verse, same as the first.

[lastmanstanding]

...I really thought we were over this. [He has on a face akin to a tired parent]

Do I have to tell you that I'm okay with this plan again? If your friend comes through with an inmate I can go home. Or move on. Or something. And if I go home, Allison...well. You said that we could at least try and work things out. I think there are worse people to emulate then Kay. I've been a whiny wreck for way too long. I owe it to him, to Brachi...to a lot of people.

It's really funny, kid. How I've made my peace with this and you haven't. Sarah...will always have a place [grimace] but she's not here and honestly I deserve...someone who at least will be willing to accept that I've changed without thinking of the mistakes that I made.

It happens, it happens. It doesn't...it doesn't and that's...well. Allison will be back home and even if I don't have her you're bound and determined to make Hayley a reality. I think that it's..pretty odd but I dunno. You're the writer.

Just-Stop getting so melodramatic about it okay? You undermine everything I'm trying to do by being like that.

-Hoffman.

I hate to tell you this, but I've lost a hell of a lot of people in my life. Dealing with that is the part I wouldn't want anyone to have to take lessons from.

[lastmanstanding]

...Yeah but you keep going. You keep going and...take charge. [This is what he wants to emulate.]

It's not about losing people. It's about...making a role for myself.

[most_feared]

Then I'll just thank you for the compliment, and wish you luck.

[lastmanstanding]

...Why'd you mention dealing with that? You...You deal well. I mean you're still working and not out trapping people in death traps.

[most_feared]

You brought up Sarah. And I know how I've felt when I lost people like Sarah.

[lastmanstanding]

...How have you felt?

[Hoffman is realizing that...he did not listen a lot. and he's really trying to make up for that with people who matter. George for one-given that he died-and Kay too. This is hard man.]

...I mean it's right to want to pick up. To move on. It's my writer who can't...let go.

[most_feared]

[Yeah, he's not talking about that.]

Don't worry about it. Just improve on your life and go do what it is you need to do.

[lastmanstanding]

[oh you silly secret agents.]

...It's...about time I picked shit up right? I mean I...I've got a girl waiting back home.

[So unsure about this.]

[most_feared]

Pretty much. Don't make her wait too long. You start getting worried you won't be able to go back.

[lastmanstanding]

....All of this stuff will eventually end up as just a...fucking memory.

[He does not sound happy about this at all.]

I want to go home. I don't want to be here anymore but I have nothing to go back to. I don't have it in me to be some...multiworld traveler.
