The room is dim, save for the cold glare of the mirror. Jekyll stands before it, voice trembling with finality: "I won't be arrested. I won't be *anywhere*." Hyde, his reflection, recoils. "Stop talking nonsense." Jekyll’s eyes glaze over, a dark surrender taking hold. "I'm giving up. I'll sink deep inside our mind... My secret will die with me, and you will rot in Jail." He falls inward, a twisted smile spreading. "It's worth it... to watch you *suffer*." Hyde presses a hand to the glass, horror etched on his face as his host disappears.
