He was pretty amazing. I wish I could have known him longer. There's so much he could have taught me, I think. There's so much he... he could still teach me, if he came here.
[The words come out hesitant, like he almost doesn't even dare voice that hope for fear of it shattering. But...

I mean, it's the same for you, isn't it? Your dad... Both your dads are here.
