[Murphy sighs.] Look, I know it sounds bad, but you're not the first person who treated me like that. Even after what you know now, I don't know that many people who'd be as... forgiving, as you are.

My point is, you've already done more for me than anyone has in a long time, and I'm not gonna blame or hate you for what happened back there, either. If nothin' else, you saved my ass from the next cop who wanted me dead. So, you may not be able to shrug it off, but... I'm not losin' any sleep over anything you've done to me.

[He stops, distracted by the shoulder-bird that starts pecking at his hair.]

Better than nobody, I guess.
