Final Words[]

Jon
I definitely feel I did the right thing. I had every single person here eating out all in my hand and, uh, to go out on my own terms, I'm very happy with that. No regrets at all. Last time I was the biggest bad guy ever, and this time I'm a responsible adult that people like, some even loved. What's going on in the world?
