Geraldine keeps her eyes trained on him as she slowly reaches into her purse, wrapping her fingers around her gun. “…Callo, I’m so sorry that your life ended up this way, ” she sighs as she gets out of her side of the car, her feet burning from the cold as her high heels sink into the fallen snow. “Aren’t you scared?”“ I’m you, Geraldine… I fell into the same trap as you, anyway, ” Callo answers. His large eyes are shining with tears, but he doesn’t seem afraid in the least. “…The dead don’t feel anything, you know… not even guilt or regret. So, what is there to be afraid of? .Rebecca McNutt
About This Quote
When Geraldine is about to kill Callo she says, “Aren’t you scared?†Callo answers, “I’m you, Geraldine; I fell into the same trap as you, anyway.†He is pointing out that he has also died. He is still alive, but he has lost his sense of self. This is because he is dead and living under the same roof as Geraldine. He has no idea that she was once a good person who followed all the rules and then ended up taking his life.
He does not know that she felt regret over her own past actions and felt very guilty for his death. It will be impossible for him to feel guilt or regret because he is dead due to her actions.
