"Robert... Robert says I have a choice, that I could go anywhere I wanted, I could go to Paris, I could be with you. I want to be with you, more than I want a new life away from Comstock. I would rather remember all of the lies and pain and terror than forget you.
"I thought when Robert told me, that I would feel obligated to go back and stop Comstock. But I can't. I can't. If you want me here, I'll never go back.
"And why-- why does it have to be me?" she asks with a little scoff and laugh. "If Robert's seen it happen, it doesn't have to be me, it could be his Elizabeth who lets everything fall apart, not me! Don't I deserve to be happy, instead of erase everything? Don't I deserve you after everything I did?"
