I can handle it.

Alice

Why?

[after a pause]

Because when you make a promise when something is your fault.

Alice

What did you do?

I let someone die.

What if there was this boy... and he did these terrible things because he liked doing them... would you say he was evil?

Alice

I don't believe in evil.

You should...

Alice

Susan told me you were here. I guess you forgot our appointment.

I just didn't feel like talking.

Alice

Talking helps. It helped the last time, didn't it?

You're a doctor. You know things.

Alice

Well, some things.

What do you think? What makes people evil?

Alice

"Evil" is a word people use when they've given up trying to understand someone. There's a reason for everything if we can just find it.

What if there isn't a reason? What if something just is?

Alice

Why, Mark? Do you think you're evil? Cos you let your mother die? You know that's not true.

What if there was this boy? And he did these terrible things because he liked doing them? Wouldn't you say he was evil?

Alice

I don't believe in evil.

You should.
