Ruaridh: I was locked in my room, Magnus...
Magnus: YOU KILLED MY DAUGHTER, YOU TWISTED F*CKING C*NT!
Ruaridh: I didn't kill her, Magnus. Flora killed herself.
Magnus: I tried to keep her away from you.... I wanted to keep her pure. But you got her, didn't you? Magnus: What would you have done? You'll scared she'll go down to that madhouse and take drugs with the rest of them, so you lock her in her room so she can't have her way. I didn't want to lose her like I lost her mother. Told her I'd let her out in the morning. Thought she was asleep. Mother of God, I thought she was asleep. So I went to my bed. A terrible smell... smoke. I ran to her room and... tried to open the door, but I can't open it... I ran outside, I could see her through the bedroom window, screaming and burning, her beautiful hair on fire... [weeping] I just wanted to end the screaming. I couldn't get to her. I ran for my rifle... and I shot her.
Charlie: I would've done the same thing.
Magnus: I shot her!
Charlie: So?
Magnus: What'd you say?
Charlie: I said so, so what?
Magnus: I HAD TO SHOOT MY DAUGHTER AND YOU SAY SO WHAT?! Charlie: It was her decision, she—
Magnus: I LOCKED HER IN HER ROOM! I WOULDNA LET HER GO TO THAT HOTEL! I SHOT HER!
Charlie: BECAUSE YOU LOVED HER!... It's tragic. It's horrible. You have to... you have to...
Magnus: God. God. I swear to God I'm not gonna hurt you.
