What was that necklace? The one you were holding at the train crash. Was it your mom's?

Joe

My dad gave it to her the day I was born. She wears it all the time. Well, used to. And... It was bad how she died and... But my dad got it back.

Alice

I know I don't know you at all. Even though it sort of feels like I do. Do you not feel like that?

Joe

No, no, I totally do. I'm just kind of in shock at this entire conversation.

Alice

I know he wishes he'd been the one who died, sometimes I wish it too.

Alice, don't say that. He's your dad.
