I was once in your shoes. [Isn't that a strong start? He watches Jason, trying to see what he thinks.] Not your literal shoes. I was brought to a world that I wasn't supposed to be in with a lot of people who were also not supposed to be there. It wasn't good.

And then I got sent back here. We all had ideas that we'd be able to be together. Some of us thought that no one could control us once we overcame that. It didn't work out that way. I assume all of us got split up. And anyone who was dead, who had been dead before they got there, went back to being dead.

[Because there's always those stories, aren't there? The guy who got a second chance. Jimmy heard it a lot.]

I didn't want to come back here. I didn't want to be here alone. It's where I ended up. I've been trying to get back to someone I lost a long, long time ago. Well. I was. About a month before I had you dropped off, I realized how much I messed that up.
