The opportunity to see Klaus grow.]

Don't do this. Not when you've come so far. [He's grown, taken risks, become so much better than he had been then. It's painful to see him pull back within his walls.] You're afraid he won't be able to forgive you, but you know that doesn't give you the right to make the choice for him.

You're better than this.
