Thanatos: Took you long enough...
Danny: Yeah... I think... deep down... I always knew. I just didn't want to believe it. Whether I was too afraid or just too clueless, I don't know. But it answered all of it. Why you're so obsessed with destroying my life… why you hate me… why you hate the people in my life. My parents, my friends, Jazz... Danielle... and Kim! You hate them and brag about what you'll do to them! You know things about me no one else does! You know things no one else should! Only one person could know those things!

All this time, everyone was thinking you were either just some random ghost or an actual being of nothing… but we both know that's not true! That's not it at all! You don't just know about me… you're the only one who can know so much, and the only one who can see those memories he didn't have! So… step out of that armor! Take off that helmet! Show me the face behind that mask! So that I can see... if you still look like me...
