Shaun laugh, "Poor little Dan, I'm not the only one guilty right.. You were there when I pushed Jessy and yet you didn't try to stop me."

Dan goes near Shaun, and grab his collar, "You fucking bastard Shaun..."

Shaun laugh harder as Dan grabs his collar, Dan loosing his control and punches a few times Shaun. "That's all you got Dan? Ha Ha Ha...... I did kill Phil and Cleo.. poor them, they just in the wrong time and the wrong place."
