Nick: A man died. It was my fault.
Priest: You said a man died. How? Did you intend to take his life?
Nick: Does it matter?
Priest: Absolution requires an acceptance of responsibility, and if his family wants justice.
Nick: I don't think I can do that.
Priest: Imagine I'm this man's father or son -- someone who loved him. What would you say to me?
Nick: I'd say I'm sorry. I know what I did. I took him from you, and you didn't even get to put him in the ground to say goodbye. I'd say, Tommy Deal didn't deserve to die.
