Conor O'Farrell: Ted Packard

Quotes 

• Ted Packard : Thanks for coming. I just wanted to have a chance to apologize face to face for what I did. I don't know what I was thinking

  Dr. Anne Packard : Where are the letters?

  Ted Packard : [Referring to underneath his jacket on top of a chair]  right here

  Ted Packard : [after she notices a gun on the same chair]  it's not for you

  Dr. Anne Packard : For whom then?

  Ted Packard : [Handing her the letters]  just take the letters and go

  Dr. Anne Packard : You're not thinking about killing yourself...

  Ted Packard : [Interrupts her]  oh, no: it's for self defense

  Dr. Anne Packard : Don't lie to me

  Ted Packard : Look, you got what you came for, so go. You don't need to be here for this

  Dr. Anne Packard : At least talk to someone. I know some good doctors

  Ted Packard : [Dismissively]  high priced phonies, you're going to talk me out of doing of what I should've done five years ago? No thank you. I'm a failure, everything I touch goes bad. It's just the way it is, don't shed any tears for me because I don't deserve it. Just go

  Ted Packard : [Putting the gun to his head]  don't come any closer

  Dr. Anne Packard : Let me call someone

  Ted Packard : No

  Dr. Anne Packard : Please?

  Ted Packard : You're a great woman, much better than I ever deserved and I'm sorry I let you down so just get the hell out of here

  Ted Packard : [shouts]  I said go

  Dr. Anne Packard : It doesn't have to be like this

  Ted Packard : No? How could it be? Could we be twenty-five again?

  Dr. Anne Packard : What you did was wrong but you made it right and that means something. That means you can start again, people do it all the time, why not you?

  Ted Packard : [Taking the gun away from his head]  you're really something. I believe if I gave you a few more minutes, you might've actually talked me out of doing it
