I made many mistakes back home. Mistakes that hurt people. And sometimes I hurt people on purpose. Finn doesn't know, not really. [He'd alluded to some of it but that was hardly a confession.]

I'm not a good person, Jake, but I try to be. But this man, this is the kind of man I hurt on purpose. Someone who can hurt an innocent like Finn...

I'm going to handle it. This won't happen again.
