Daniel, I'm, I'm sorry.

You should've led with that.

I wanted to apologize.

For my behavior with Miss Taylor-- I wasn't myself.

There's just been so much noise in my head since, since what happened that I can't hear God.

It's been so long since I heard him, I feel unworthy at being a vicar.

You're not the only one having a hard time of it, Will.

No, I know, I know, and I'm, I am sorry.

I poured my life into this place.

Jack's money, too.

(exhales) After your performance with Miss Taylor, you've ruined everything.

I am truly, truly sorry.

Sorry?

Is that all you've got?

I think you enjoy the pandering and fussing around "poor Will."

(softly): I know you're upset.

So please just tell me what I can do to help.

Why would I ever trust you to do anything ever again?

What use are you, to anyone, when all you do is wallow in self-pity?

I've let you all down.

♪ ♪ I've tried to be better, but it's just too hard.

And the guilt I carry won't go away.

♪ ♪ I've had Bonnie on the telephone.

Will's not there.

He never made it.

WILL: So, I've done the only thing I can.

The only thing that makes sense.

Will?

You there?

Bonnie is going spare!

Where's Will, eh, Dickens?

Where is the daft sod?

♪ ♪ WILL: Everything will be better... ...now I'm gone.

Will?!

BONNIE: Why isn't he here?

What if he doesn't want this baby?

Put him in a cell, Larry.

Let's just get this over with.

GEORDIE: You destroy yourself, Will.

They deserve so much better than this.
